Yeah, sadly the transition tracker only looks at unstable, so packages that are fixed in unstable but haven't migrated to testing for some reason won't show up.

Looking at brial, it seems python3-brial should technically have a dependency on sagemath, but this dependency is omitted for bootstrapping reasons https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=896218 .

I would think the autopkgtest should probably check somehow what versions of python3 sagemath supports and test against those, rather than having a hardcoded whitelist/blacklist.


Afaict until sagemath makes it back into testing ( currently blocked by https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=944055 ), having a brial package in testing is pretty pointless.
