While 2.5 is the default, one can use (with the default interpreter) any package built against 2.5; meaning those FTBFSes don't matter much. Switching to 2.6 would mean that the packages currently FTBFSing can't be used (with the default interpreter). So, sorry, but yes, I think the FTBFSes are holding up the transition, and for a good reason. Hopefully, I guess a few NMUs should do the trick. (I might be missing something, I'm a bit laggy buildd-wise since past week.) Mraw, KiBi.
