Hi,

I am on debian bookworm (testing), but am using gauche from sid (with
apt pinning), as it has not migrated to testing - for ages now, as it
appears to me (it was removed in March 2022 - cf. below).

If find this a little annoying (this is the only package that forces me
to use apt pinning), and more importantly: I am a bit worried, if gauche
is left behind in debian (will be ready, when it comes to another
stable release of debian some time in the future):

cf.
  https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=gauche
  https://packages.debian.org/sid/gauche
 
and in particular 

  https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/gauche

gives some explanations:

  [2022-03-19] gauche REMOVED from testing (Debian testing watch)
  testing migrations
  ∙ ∙ Updating gauche would introduce bugs in testing: #1023035
  etc

but apparently: it is in debian sid - thus I conclude:
it was/is possible to resolve these issues (if any really).

I have contacted the debian developer in charge:

  NIIBE Yutaka <[email protected]>

some time ago - but haven't received a response
(I haven't submitted a formal bug report - it seems clear to
me that, something should happen about this situation).

Has anyone on this list maybe a clue about (an eye on) the situation?

Thanks,
  A.
