...a merge against lp:ubuntu-dev-tools will be rejected until someone brings ubuntu-qa-tools to Debian.

Evan Broder (broder) wrote :

We can't do that because lp:ubuntu-dev-tools is upstream for Debian, and Debian currently doesn't have the ubuntu-qa-tools package.

I don't like the idea to carry a different version of ubuntu-dev-tools in Ubuntu than in Debian.

Evan Broder (broder) wrote :

I agree it's less than desirable, but with ubuntu-qa-tools not currently in Debian, and with Debian frozen, I'm not sure there's much of a choice for the time being.

Debian testing is frozen. You can still upload to Debian unstable (and experimental). I am more willing to add the recommends if ubuntu-qa-tools is in Debian NEW.

Having it in NEW seems reasonable to me.
