All the information is available via the PTS for ardour:

Testing status
Excuses:

    * 96 days old (needed 10 days)
    * Ignoring high urgency setting for NEW package
    * out of date on s390: ardour (from 1:2.5-3)
    * ardour (source, i386, alpha, amd64, armel, hppa, ia64, mips,
mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc) has new bugs!
    * Updating ardour introduces new bugs: #458660
    * Not considered

http://packages.qa.debian.org/a/ardour.html

The bug information looks out of date, so clicking on the ToDo item:

"The package has not yet entered testing  even though the 10-day delay
is over. Check why."

gives:

http://release.debian.org/migration/testing.pl?package=ardour

    * ardour has no old version in testing (trying to add, not update)
    * ardour is not yet built on s390: 1:2.5-3 vs 1:2.7.1-2 (missing 1
binary: ardour)
