There’s was another Bash-related issue that I just fixed, and Hydra is
now rebuilding the “core” package subset.  If everything is fine when
it’s done, which could be tomorrow, we could freeze.

We could wait an additional day for libarchive if it’s more convenient,
but maybe not longer than that.

What do you think would be the most convenient approach?

Thanks,
