[Debian-astro-maintainers] Bug#1138650: src:erfa: fails to migrate to testing for too long

[Ole Streicher]

Hi Paul,

the erfa package does not migrate because of the bug #1133139 in 
src:glibc, which creates an errornous liberfa library. Unfortunately, 
despite being marked as release critical, it is not solved yet. So, 
there isn't anything I could do here to make it migrating. On the other 
hand, liberfa is a dependency of astropy and (indirectly) of a large 
portion of the Astronomy Pure Blend, and it would a pity to see them 
removed from testing.

Best

Ole
