QA information

Comments

  1. There is a backport (i.e., 0.13.0-4~bpo12+1) of `ruby-mdl` to bookworm.
    
    This upload of an update only addresses the increment of the Debian Policy.  Compared to the earlier 0.13.0-4, the functionality of the syntax checker was not edited -- neither by myself, nor that there is a new upstream version available on RubyGems.[1]  This is why I would presume there is no benefit to prepare a new 0.13.0-5~bpo12+1 for an additional, deferred upload.
    
    Dear sponsoring DD, does your experience suggest «it is better to keep the packages in testing and the optional bpo to stable in sync»?

  2. Regarding the warning by `lintian` and the Debian Policy check:  at best of my current knowlegde,[1] there is no newer version of the checker than 2.117.0 published by 2024-02-13 to bookworm/testing.
