There are currently 31 bugs marked lenny-ignore. As I understand things, if option 1 makes it all those 31 need to be fixed before we can release lenny. Here is the list of bugs and the packages: 211765 | xorg-server 368559 | x11proto-gl 368564 | xorg-server 382175 | glibc 383465 | xserver-xorg-video-nv 391935 | xen-3 424957 | portmap 445507 | mklibs 459705 | pike7.6 477060 | texlive-base 477751 | sgml-base 483217 | texlive-base 488895 | lucene2 491354 | texlive-extra 492699 | fakeroot 494007 | linux-2.6 494009 | linux-2.6 494010 | linux-2.6 494308 | linux-2.6 495256 | cacao-oj6 498475 | net-snmp 498476 | libsmi 498631 | linux-2.6 501152 | linux-2.6 501153 | linux-2.6 502663 | linux-2.6 502665 | linux-2.6 502666 | linux-2.6 502667 | linux-2.6 502668 | linux-2.6 502669 | linux-2.6 Note that 2 of them (488895 - lucene2, 495256 - cacao-oj6) have been fixed in unstable but not in lenny.
