testing migrations
  • excuses:
    • Migration status for aptitude (0.8.13-7 to 0.8.13-8): Waiting for test results or another package, or too young (no action required now - check later)

    • ∙ ∙ Too young, only 1 of 5 days old
    • Additional info:
    • ∙ ∙ Updating aptitude will fix bugs in testing: #1096323
    • ∙ ∙ Piuparts tested OK - https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/source/a/aptitude.html
    • ∙ ∙ Reproducible on amd64 - info ♻
    • ∙ ∙ Waiting for reproducibility test results on arm64 - info ♻
    • Not considered
