Yeah - I have a very strong suspicion that's just us though. I've
never heard of anyone else working on the debugger (and it's even less
likely they'd be working on this branch).
Heikki; please try forcing the delete, and let us know if it works OK.
I've CC'd Sachin and Ashesh who can drop the old branch from the
installer build machines for 8.x and 9.0/9.1.
