Control: severity -1 serious
Control: found -1 15:13.3.rel1-1+27

Hi,

bumping this to RC severity because libstdc++-arm-none-eabi-dev,
libstdc++-arm-none-eabi-newlib as well as libstdc++-arm-none-eabi-picolibc are
all uninstallable in unstable:

Looking at the changelog of this package, frequent and manual source uploads 
seem to be required every time that picolibc and/or toolchain changes:

https://tracker.debian.org/media/packages/libs/libstdc%2B%2B-arm-none-eabi/changelog-27

I also don't understand why this bug has now been open for more than a year and
never even received a reply from the maintainers?

If the maintainers are short on time, I would like to offer to NMU
libstdc++-arm-none-eabi to get this issue resolved quickly.

Thanks!

cheers, josch
