RCBW - #26

It is getting down, even though the current number is scary. My personal RC bug count is not so mystical and as low as 205 RC bugs to go, which is quite encouraging. Without any further ado, here are this week squashes:

• Debian bug #571817 - python-data - avoid spurious py2.4 dep (sponsored NMU for Obey Arthur Liu)
• Debian bug #574020 - h5utils - switch to octave 3.2 (sponsored NMU for Obey Arthur Liu)
• Debian bug #559609 - hstore-new - drop pgsql 8.3 package (sponsored NMU for Obey Arthur Liu)
• Debian bug #575384 - ethos - add inter-lib dep to avoid dangling .so link (patch by Andreas Henriksson)
• Debian bug #460338, Debian bug #565153 - apt-proxy - requested removal RM/RoQA (see Debian bug #576821)
• Debian bug #574557 - qpsmtpd - fix virtual deps in init script (patch by Petter Reinholdtsen)

Random points:

• I've exploited quite a bit my (now ex) NM Obey Arthur Liu: 3 of the above squashes come from him. I've been tempted to put Arthur on hold just to have him fix some more RC bugs g (just kidding, of course)
• It has been observed that *cheering up Gregor8 produces beneficial effects on the RC bug count, so why not doing it again?
• Last week I forgot to mention Rhonda's regular stable RC squashing, and in particular the "below 1000" milestone. Cheers!
