Well, even if you agree I guess you missunderstand my intention:  I
think an empty package is not nice and should be fixed for sure - but I
do not consider this RC critical and would think we should not keep
release team busy with things which are not that critical.  So IMHO
the following action is appropriate:

  - Downgrade severity from "grave" to "normal"
  - Fix the bug in experimental first and once wheezy is released
    in unstable.
  - In case t-coffee might show a more critical problem this
    should probably fixed also in an upload targeting to wheezy

This is only my personal opinion and I do not want to override the
opinion of the bug reporter and so I would like to discuss this first.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
