The "Uncorrectable error" messages are bizarre, in this context. I think they are simply wrong and it should have printed something like Forcing due to --deliberately-include-questionable-history The code is in dgit-repos-policy-debian near line 480. It appears never to set the variable $ovstatus which is used (only) to prepare the message. So this is a cosmetic bug, albeit one that produces possibly-alarming output.
