Control: severity -1 important So it seems we don't have a clear solution here. But more importantly, I do not believe the bugs described here are serious enough to block the wheezy release (as they are doing now) or provoke a removal of the package from the archive (as they could mean).
Instead, I will just downgrade the severity of this bug. My rationale is
that this bug "a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a
package, without rendering it completely unusable to everyone". Indeed,
the crash happens only when certain commandline options are used.
This does not, in my opinion as the maintainer of that package, "make
the package unsuitable for release", and doesn't, as far as I know break
any "must" or "required" directive of the Debian Policy.
Those bugs could also be fixed in a later stable update, but I believe
that things are okay as things stand.
Thanks for all the hard work everyone - it is not lost, and will land in
unstable as soon as the freeze is over! :)
Further comments and patches are of course still very welcome.
