For all maintainers that have done so, or something similar, by all means, you can lower the severity to avoid the autoremoval while marking the bug as pending. > And if it's really something that release managers wants to enforce for > buster, the severities can be raised say 2 months before the freeze. s/buster/bullseye/ ;) Ideally we (the release team) would have a way of saying "this is severity important as long as testing and unstable are in sync, but it's not OK to upload a new version without fixing this". Unfortunately we don't have such an option at this moment. Please adjust your bugs in accordance with this idea. Paul
