Hello Guillem, I see that this serious bug has been pending since July the 7th. I thought dpkg/1.18.10 was going to be uploaded to unstable very soon after having found the fix for this regression, but apparently something went wrong. In the meanwhile, dpkg/1.18.9 managed to migrate to testing [1], despite introducing this RC bug: I wonder how that was even possible... do the testing migration checks skip pending RC bugs?!? a pending bug is not a fixed bug!!! I am Cc-ing the Release Team about this. Dear Guillem, could you please clarify the status of this bug? Dear Release Team, could you please explain what I failed to understand about the testing migration rules [2]? Please let me know, thanks for your time.
