[R-pkg-team] Bug#971609: r-cran-sna: Not build in Debian, unsatisfiable build-deps

[Steve Langasek]

Source: r-cran-sna
Version: 2.5-2
Severity: serious

As documented in update-excuses, the r-cran-sna package is not migratable to
testing because it build-depends on packages that are not available in
Debian (neither in unstable, nor in any other release, nor in the NEW
queue):

$ grep-excuses r-cran-sna
r-cran-sna (- to 2.5-2)
    Maintainer: Debian R Packages Maintainers
    Migration status for r-cran-sna (- to 2.5-2): BLOCKED: Rejected/violates migration policy/introduces a regression
    Issues preventing migration:
    r-cran-sna/amd64 has unsatisfiable dependency
    r-cran-sna unsatisfiable Build-Depends(-Arch) on amd64: r-cran-statnet.common
    r-cran-sna unsatisfiable Build-Depends(-Arch) on amd64: r-cran-network
    Not built on buildd: arch amd64 binaries uploaded by tille
    Additional info:
    Cannot be tested by piuparts (not a blocker) - https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/source/r/r-cran-sna.html
    uninstallable on arch amd64, not running autopkgtest there
    136 days old (needed 5 days)
$

There is a 228-day-old wnpp bug for r-cran-network:

  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=951510

and also for r-cran-statnet.common:

  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=951511

So it would be good if those would get uploaded to the archive, given there
is another package that build-depends on them.
