testing migrations
  • excuses:
    • Migration status for emacs (1:28.2+1-14 to 1:28.2+1-15): Waiting for test results or another package, or too young (no action required now - check later)
    • Issues preventing migration:
    • ∙ ∙ Too young, only 3 of 7 days old
    • Additional info:
    • ∙ ∙ Updating emacs will fix bugs in testing: #1034941, #1035781
    • ∙ ∙ Piuparts tested OK - https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/source/e/emacs.html
    • ∙ ∙ Overriding age needed from 7 days to 7 by sramacher
    • ∙ ∙ Ignoring block request by freeze, due to unblock request by sramacher
    • Not considered
