Just to clarify, I've now closed that report as I mentioned I'd be
doing, but this will have no effect, because dpkg and gcc-* are not
migrating primarily because they are being used by the release team
to gate the transition, to avoid having them get into testing and
potentially then getting things to build with the wrong ABI there

Perhaps the release team blocks should be listed more prominently at
the beginning of the tracker page and perhaps be somewhat linkified
(I'll file a report)? (Or maybe you got this information from somewhere
else, which lacks that information or is also listed at the end?)
