Thanks Steve for uploading a fixed curl on Saturday. Just checking did you
notice amel/armhf are still not building due to secondary issues and n
dependencies?

As mentioned on IRC, I isolated the bug in the script that caused this,
which allowed working out the full list of affected packages.

  https://paste.debian.net/1309262/

curl, nordugrid-arc, poppler, qtbase-opensource-src, and xmlrpc-c have been
uploaded with the fix.  petsc will take a little bit, as there are other
bugs that need fixing at the same time.

It's not similar, it's caused by some t64 libraries having wrong Provides.
I've filed bugs about this on poppler, qt5 and curl, there may be more.

I would assume that they are aware about the issues directly blocking the
transition progression and many other issues are not relevant yet.

When in doubt I would ask on #debian-devel, where the real-time
coordination seems to happen.

time_t transition and bugs

2024-03-02 Thread Antonio Russo
Hello!

I decided to jump into unstable to see the status of the time_t transition.
There is currently an issue that seems to have not made any progress in the
last few upload cycles.  Specifically, some of the t64 renames
are being reverted by several packages (e.g. util-linux), leaving *versioned* 
dependencies
on the t64 libraries unsatisfiable.  This breaks transitioned packages.

There's a similar issue with versioned dependencies by un-transitioned
packages have on non-t64 libraries (e.g., libqt5sql5).

The end result is that unstable totally broken right now, doubly so
if you're using kde/qt5 (I am holding packages in older versions in aptitude
right now).

My questions are:

1. Is the time_t transition team aware of these issues?
2. Where should these kinds of bugs be reported?  I feel like reporting to
individual packages might get lost, and also these may represent less 
package-specific
issues.

Best,
Antonio Russo
