excuses:
- Migration status for kicad (10.0.4+dfsg-1 to 10.0.5+dfsg-1): BLOCKED: Maybe temporary, maybe blocked but Britney is missing information (check below)
- Issues preventing migration:
- ∙ ∙ Missing build on riscv64
- ∙ ∙ Autopkgtest deferred on riscv64: missing arch:riscv64 build
- ∙ ∙ Autopkgtest for kicad/10.0.5+dfsg-1: amd64: No tests, superficial or marked flaky ♻, arm64: No tests, superficial or marked flaky ♻, armhf: No tests, superficial or marked flaky ♻ (reference ♻), i386: No tests, superficial or marked flaky ♻, loong64: Test triggered, ppc64el: No tests, superficial or marked flaky ♻ (reference ♻)
- ∙ ∙ Lintian check waiting for test results on riscv64 - info
- ∙ ∙ Reproducibility check waiting for results on i386 - info
- ∙ ∙ Too young, only 1 of 5 days old
- Additional info (not blocking):
- ∙ ∙ Updating kicad will fix bugs in testing: #1133510
- ∙ ∙ Piuparts tested OK - https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/source/k/kicad.html
- ∙ ∙ Not reproduced on amd64 (not a regression): kicad
