Dear all, I also have mixed feelings about aligning Policy on current practices: on systems where the contrib and non-free archives are not enabled, this brings unavailable packages in the part of the dependancy graph that is supposed to be closed in stable releases. However, I admit that the wording of the release goal would allow to list unavailable packages as alternatives.
