Thanks, Alexis. One note about that bug: with lots of bugs being filed, it's not really feasible for me to track comments like that one. If there was a bug on file about dev-ml/camlp5 breaking coq, my script wouldn't consider dev-ml/camlp5 for stabilization - I think this is the right thing for you to do in such cases, much better than "implicit" bugs that are not in the bug tracker. :) > I'm even becoming more lazy and do not look for stable candidates > because I know some day I'll have an automated request :P Note that there are several things my script will ignore: 1. Packages with any bugs open. 2. Packages which have at least one ~arch dependency. I still recommend doing some pass over packages you maintain to look for any stable candidates. Hopefully thanks to the script you should need to do that less often. Paweł
