A whole week? I am not sure the security team would be happy with being unable to fix critical a bug in a whole week, if such thing ever happens. > So it's not really release critical but we still want the new > version to migrate in testing so it doesn't change much. It depends. My goal is to build 25000 source packages in a row and have 0.5 failures on average in total (i.e. closer to 0 than to 1). If we have 50 packages which FTBFS randomly, they should fail less than 1% on average. One week every 4 years is more than 7% of the time. Too much for my taste. Thanks.
