testing migrations

excuses:
- Migration status for sift (6.2.1-1 to 6.2.1-2): Waiting for test results or another package, or too young (no action required now - check later)
- Issues preventing migration:
- ∙ ∙ Too young, only 3 of 5 days old
- Additional info:
- ∙ ∙ Updating sift will fix bugs in testing: #1114377
- ∙ ∙ Cannot be tested by piuparts (not a blocker) - (no link yet)
- Not considered
