Thank you for running the ‘testing’ suite. The problems you encountered are an important part of having people run that suite; you can then report those problems in the Debian bug tracking system, so that the package maintainers have enough information to correct the package *before* release. What response did you get to the bug reports you filed from the problems you encountered? > I was very surprised when they released Stretch The release managers will use the Debian BTS to determine whether packages should remain in Debian for the release. Did the bug reports you made get addressed? Which packages still had Debian bug reports unresolved when Stretch was released? -- \ “Whenever you read a good book, it's like the author is right | `\ there, in the room talking to you, which is why I don't like to | _o__) read good books.” —Jack Handey | Ben Finney
