IIRC you said in some other thread that dh-buildinfo is causing you issues. If that is the case (= if I'm not misremembering), an upload that "defuses" dh-buildinfo would immediately solve the issue. And then maintainers can get to their bugs whenever. Possibly only when dh-buildinfo actually gets removed from unstable. So - does dh-buildinfo cause you issues?
