Hi Svein, I will provide a backport of btrfs-progs for stretch as I am already doing for jessie. https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/ The jessie-backport version must never be greater than the version in stretch, and the stretch-backport will be a couple of days behind the version in testing. The version in testing will usually be five days behind the version in unstable, but this changes during a freeze. The unblock request denied by release team wouldn't have been necessary if the version in unstable was kept up to date. Sincerely, Nicholas
