-dev packages gone and repo inconsistency (latex-graphics-dev appearing both as gone and updatable)

[Sergio Callegari]

Hi,

tlmgr update --list today reports -dev packages (latex-bin-dev, 
latex-graphics-dev, etc.) as gone. Is this expected? Is the testing period for 
new engines/formats finished?

Also, weirdly at the same time tlmgr update --list reports latex-graphics-dev to 
be both for "autorm" as missing from source and updatable to source with id 52096.

This finally leads the update to error as in:

tlmgr: inconsistency on (one of) the server(s): 
http://ctan.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/CTAN/systems/texlive/tlnet
tlmgr: tlp for package latex-graphics-dev cannot be found, please report.

the issue does not seem to be mirror related though. Changing the mirror does 
not let tlmgr find latex-graphics-dev.

Is this expected?

Sergio
