Package: libnettle8 Version: 3.7-1 Severity: serious Tags: upstream patch fixed-upstream
nettle 3.7 breaks GnuTLS testsuite on ppc64(el). I had forwarded this upstream https://lists.lysator.liu.se/pipermail/nettle-bugs/2021/009418.html and there is now a fix (+ testsuite coverage) in nettle GIT master. I am submitting with severity serious because chacha (assembly) does not work correctly on ppc64(el). Technically you might see this as "a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package, without rendering it completely unusable to everyone." (important). - I chose to err on the side of caution to (temporarily) delay testing migration. Please downgrade if you disagree. If you want me to do so I can also do NMU. cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin. His other friends are so grateful to you.' `I sew his ears on from time to time, sure'
