I apologize for not replying sooner.

apt-verify has a defacto RC bug or equivalent because apt has
Conflicts: apt-verify.

Notice how it is unable to migrate to Testing because of the piuparts
regression: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/apt-verify

I am bumping the severity back to serious just so that someone who
visits that tracker page (or the similar excuses pages) has a handy
link to more explanation why this package is unable to migrate to
Testing. There is history in previous comments to this bug. I am not
personally involved in apt maintenance or deciding whether there
should or shouldn't be a Conflicts here.

Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha
