Yes. I've poked at the list a few times and it's actually rather difficult even to find one that can be squashed by an insider! There are also a lot of RC bugs that, really, at this point in the release, are probably not reasonable targets to fix. For example, I would question whether #538822 and #540512 against dash are worth asking people to spend time on right now; those are really the sorts of bugs that should be worked on near the beginning of an upgrade cycle. I realize that's what we said last cycle, but it's still *true* even if it's frustrating that people haven't had the time at the right point in the cycle. (Also, at this point, #538822 is arguably too old to worry too much about fixing; people who were going to be bitten by that have probably already moved on with their lives now.) -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
