that still applies in this instance, so please do not NMU python-psutil.
Sandro, that is not fair to others in the project. You maintain a package that
has reverse dependencies, but is not currently in testing. With the soft freeze
arriving in 7 days, no new packages will be allowed into testing, which means
that any rdeps will be out of trixie.
You can't ask people not to do NMUs, as that's a tool of the project to help fix
bugs. Note that according to the NMU docs [1], 2-day or even 0-day NMUs are
possible in some cases.
So please, do attempt to get your package into testing, and if you don't, then
don't block others from doing so.
Thomas, I think a 2-day NMU fixing only this bug is appropriate, but since you
got review feedback from Sandro, try to go through it in order to improve the
change.
Cheers,
Emilio
