[Debian-l10n-devel] l10n-pkg-status: source does not specify a priority

[Valters Jansons]

Hello,

If a maintainer follows Debian Policy Version 4.7.3 (Dec 2025), source
packages do not need to specify the Priority field explicitly. It
defaults to "optional", and should be omitted unless there is a
specific reason for it. Currently, skipping Priority results in dl10n
flagging it as a failure with message "source does not specify a
priority". The l10n-pkg-status is then considered to have errored out,
which should not be the case.

There is already a proposed solution from January pending approval,
which looks logical to me:

Thank you,
