I tried to promote Mauku 2.0 beta 3 into extras-testing. The result was: "Server Error Can not continue promotion, because dependency package microfeed is a user section package and needs to be promoted first!" However, I had promoted the package microfeed just before that!

Is there again (saying "again" I refer to very annoying dependency handling in extras-devel autobuilder) some unspecified time that a promoter has to wait before the promotion is actually performed? Is it really true, that I have to sit and wait until all dependencies have gone through some promotion phases until I can click the "promote" link of a next package?

I bet there are also other developers who really do not have that much time to spend to unnecessary bureaucratic steps. The promotion interface as well as extras autobuilder should not introduce additional load for developers, but function very smoothly and almost transparently.

Luckily there is ongoing efforts to fix extras autobuilder. I hope the promotion interface is fixed too (or even better: I have just misunderstood something and everything just works).
