Do you agree with the submitter of this bug that the lack of debug symbols
available via Recommends is a release critical bug? I'm not an experienced
valgrind user, but with my Release Team member hat on, this looks a bit
exaggerated.
(I believe the RC policy includes unavailable packages in
Recommends: ...)
But that's the other RC bug against valgrind. I was explicitly
interested if the lack of *a* debug symbols package in Recommends is
to be considered RC in itself.
I think you are implying a finer detail that is lost on me.
valgrind was recommending a package that is not available in main.
I'm not sure what the status would be, if valgrind had recommended
valgrind-dbgsym instead. That would also be not installable on a
system configured with the default APT sources setup.
The second bug seems to describe the exactly same problem.
