[Piuparts-devel] Bug#850948: needrestart, piuparts: needrestart hangs -> piupart fails -> debian-design blocked

[Jonas Smedegaard]

Package: needrestart,piuparts
Severity: serious

This bugreport is tracking debian-design not entering testing.

Background:

 a) needrestart sometimes hangs during install.
 b) Needrestart hanging is caught by piuparts and treated as a failure.
 c) debian-design depends on needrestart and is blocked from testing.

Issue a) is tracked as bug#826044, but as severity important.

This bugreport is tracking the combined issue of a) + b) + c).

Please therefore reassign and/or merge as appropriate, but only as long
as the severity reflects the actual treatment of debian-design.
