Dear maintainer(s),
The Release Team considers packages that are out-of-sync between testing
and unstable for more than 60 days as having a Release Critical bug in
testing [1]. Your package src:ruby-redis has been trying to migrate for
61 days [2]. Hence, I am filing this bug. There is already a bug about
the autopkgtest failure. This seems like it really needs to be solved
between ruby-redis and ruby-fakeredis.
If a package is out of sync between unstable and testing for a longer
period, this usually means that bugs in the package in testing cannot be
fixed via unstable. Additionally, blocked packages can have impact on
other packages, which makes preparing for the release more difficult.
Finally, it often exposes issues with the package and/or
its (reverse-)dependencies. We expect maintainers to fix issues that
hamper the migration of their package in a timely manner.
This bug will trigger auto-removal when appropriate. As with all new
bugs, there will be at least 30 days before the package is auto-removed.
Unfortunately, ruby-redis is a key package so it will (currently) not be
susceptible to autoremoval. However, if this bug stays open too long,
I'll probably remove ruby-fakeredis, which is maintained by you too.
I have immediately closed this bug with the version in unstable, so if
that version or a later version migrates, this bug will no longer affect
testing. I have also tagged this bug to only affect sid and bookworm, so
it doesn't affect (old-)stable.
If you believe your package is unable to migrate to testing due to
issues beyond your control, don't hesitate to contact the Release Team.
Paul
