On power kernel, Niels says he has
1) removed all problematic packages from extras-devel and extras-testing
2) then cleaned package history from the database
3) imported only the latest version back in to extras-testing.
He says you should now be able to push that version to testing or upload newer versions without issues. I hope this fixes things for you.

@SD69:
We (Maemo Community) needs more people with access to Extras-* repositories.
For example package rootsh (http://maemo.org/packages/view/rootsh/) version 1.5 which is in Extras has bug in uninstall script. This problem is fixed (and working without problem) in version 1.8 which is only in Extras-devel.
Only maintainer can promote package from Extras-devel to Extras. But maintainer of rootsh is off and nobody can fix this problem.
So in Extras is buggy SW, but fixed in Extras-Devel. I'm sure that there are more buggy packages (which are fixed in devel), but nobody has permission to promote it.
This problem with rootsh SHOULD be fixed ASAP - not in next year (as kernel-power). SD69, what can you do as memeber of Community Council? I'm suggesting (again) that Nokia (or X-Fade?) should add repository permission to Community and NOT only to maintainers of package.

doesn't mean the repository can't be there anymore, of course (in fact it is still possible to download (OVI) apps deb packages with aptitude download), but, well, not promising
