Note that non-severe policy violations may be 'normal,' 'minor,' or 'wishlist' bugs. (Package maintainers may also designate other bugs as 'serious' and thus release- critical; however, end users should not do so.). For the canonical list of issues worthing a serious severity you can refer to this webpage: http://release.debian.org/testing/rc_policy.txt <http://release.debian.org/testing/rc_policy.txt> . 4 important a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package, without rendering it completely unusable to everyone. 5 does-not-build a bug that stops the package from being built from source. (This is a 'virtual severity'.) 6 normal a bug that does not undermine the usability of the whole package; for example, a problem with a particular option or menu item. 7 minor things like spelling mistakes and other minor cosmetic errors that do not affect the core functionality of the package. 8 wishlist suggestions and requests for new features.
