I suggest that you calm down a little. It is obvious that you disagree with my assessment but that does not justify your aggressiveness and your actions. For the record: As the main uploader of this package I strongly disagree with your bug severity. The package is not affected and the documentation is complete, all images are present as expected. Just because the images are not generated with graphviz on a low memory system does not make this a release critical issue. The build system clearly told you that your memory is insufficient and that you should rerun graphviz. If you ignore those error messages and my advice, then I am unable to help you. Please avoid changing the bug severity again but feel free to forward this issue to Debian's Technical Committee after having slept over it. Regards, Markus
