Hi,
I'm not really sure what's going on, but I saw many packages marked as RC
buggy with Sphinx 7.1, docutils 0.20, however, both are still in
Experimental, not in Unstable. I tried rebuilding those, and in built fine.
I therefore closed the bugs.
I'm not sure if I was right doing so, and what's the intention behind
bumping severity to serious. Is this for preparing before the upload of
sphinx+docutils to unstable? If so, I would strongly suggest explaining this
in bug entries, stating the intention is to upload sphinx and docutils very
soon. Otherwise, like me, someone may wrongly close the bugs after a
successful rebuild.
See this message:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1042585;msg=7
and this comment from Dmitry Shachnev:
# Dear Maintainers, I am going to upload Sphinx 7.2.6 to unstable next weekend.
# That will make these packages FTBFS in sid, which is a release-critical bug.
# The new docutils will be uploaded after Sphinx migrates to testing.
