Bug#1143226: src:libheif: fails to migrate to testing for too long

Source: libheif
Version: 1.21.2-4
Severity: serious
Control: close -1 1.23.1-1
Tags: sid forky
User: [email protected]
Usertags: out-of-sync

Dear maintainer(s),

The Release Team considers packages that are out-of-sync between testing and =
unstable for more than 30 days as having a Release Critical bug in testing [1=
]. Your package src:libheif has been trying to migrate for 31 days [2], hence=
 this bug report. The current output of the migration software for this packa=
ge is copied to the bottom of this report and should list the reason why the =
package is blocked.

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 u=
nstable. Blocked packages can have impact on other packages, which makes prep=
aring for the release more difficult. The situation that caused this bug repo=
rt might even be the result of such an issue. We expect maintainers to fix is=
sues that hamper the migration of their package in a timely manner. If your p=
ackage in this situation due to another package, consider helping out.

This bug will trigger auto-removal when appropriate. As with all new bugs, th=
ere will be at least 30 days before the package is auto-removed.

This bug submission immediately closes the bug with the version in unstable, =
so if that version or a later version migrates, this bug will no longer affec=
t testing. This bug is also tagged to only affect sid and forky, so it doesn'=
t affect (old-)stable.

If you believe your package is unable to migrate to testing due to issues bey=
ond your control, don't hesitate to contact the Release Team.

This bug report has been automatically generated. If you have any comments wi=
th regards to the content or the process, please reach out to me.
