thanks for the clarification.

Could you next time please hold off on doing such an upload until the reverse
dependencies land in unstable? Having a source package that does not compile
and a binary package that cannot be installed does not help anybody and on the
contrary can even disrupt existing processes (as it happened with this one
because jython is part of the transitive essential package set). I'd rather
expect such an early upload happen to experimental instead.

Thanks!

cheers, josch
