testing migrations

excuses:
- Migration status for ncl (6.6.2.dfsg.1-12 to 6.6.2.dfsg.1-15): Waiting for test results or another package, or too young (no action required now - check later)
- Issues preventing migration:
- ∙ ∙ Lintian check waiting for test results on riscv64 - info
- ∙ ∙ Too young, only 4 of 5 days old
- Additional info (not blocking):
- ∙ ∙ Updating ncl will fix bugs in testing: #1146146
- ∙ ∙ Piuparts tested OK - https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/source/n/ncl.html
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on amd64 - info
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on arm64 - info
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on armhf - info
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on i386 - info
- Not considered
