Why do we have to wait for ftp-master approval of timgm6mb-soundfont?

Because musescore-soundfont-gm has been turned into a dummy package
that has "Depends: timgm6mb-soundfont" -- rightly so. But, if the
latter package is not in the archive, this dependency cannot be
satisfied, which in turn is a policy violation, and thus a release
-critical bug, ans thus avoids the whole package from entering testing.


Perhaps this comes as a mixup between 1.x and 2.0, but it seemed like Tiago said we had to wait for timgm6mb-soundfont to get approved before musescore-2.x could go into testing. I meant in my comment above that as musescore 2.x shouldn't depend on timgm6mb-soundfont as we discussed then we don't have to wait for timgm6mb-soundfont.

Yes, this has already happened for musescore (>= 2.0).

I don't see it yet... the 2.0 package in sid https://packages.debian.org/sid/musescore (dfsg3) still lists musescore-soundfont-gm as a dependency, also looking in http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-multimedia/musescore.git If it has already gone in, where do I see it? (Sorry for asking what looks like a basic question, as I said before I still have a lot to learn about packaging).

It could get made a suggestion, but perhaps not needed as it simply
duplicates the other
suggestions...

It's successor package, timgm6mb-soundfont, i.e. the one that musescore
-soundfont-gm (>= 2.0) depends on, is already among the suggested
packages for musescore (>= 2.0).


Yes, I know that, I meant we have A suggests B; and A suggests C which depends on B, with A as musescore2, B as timgm6mb-soundfont and C as musescore-soundfont-gm. I wanted to make the point that one of those suggests seems redundant.
