Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian....@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
X-Debbugs-Cc: emacs-goodies...@packages.debian.org, s...@debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:emacs-goodies-el

Please unblock package emacs-goodies-el

This is a prerequest, and emacs-goodies-el is intended for Trixie.

If you intend to unblock helm (#1107141), please let me know and I'll
additionally file an unblock for project-el (which depends on helm).

If not, I'll drop project-el from src:emacs-goodies-el's dependencies,
because emacs-goodies-el only transitively depends on helm (via
project-el); this was and remains the worst-case scenario plan.

[ Reason ]
On Tue, 31 Dec 2024 Manphiz refused to adopt helm, but appears to have
reconsidered around 1 June 2025.  Meanwhile, I was surprised that no
other team members adopted this popular package.

[ Impact ]
Emacs-goodies-el is a heritage high-popcon package that should not
silently disappear from a major release.  We're also supposed to be
good about not violating the principle of least surprise.

[ Tests ]
NA

[ Risks ]
None

[ Checklist ]
  [NA] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [NA] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [NA] attach debdiff against the package in testing


unblock emacs-goodies-el/42.4
