It seems that the trend this year is to not trust the maintainers for anything… How about the porters responsability towards the project ? For instance, hppa is blocking the testing migration of a couple of my packages, and probably the packages of many other maintainers as well. Why would it be my duty to help people running Debian on machines that are not used in my profession, and for which I have no qualification at all? I do not want to prevent people having fun with Debian on this arch, so wouldn't the best solution to never build my package on their arch in the first place? It would reduce the number of issues to solve in both groups, Debian Med and the hppa porters, which like every other group in Debian severely lack manpower.
