Package: golang-k8s-metrics Version: 0.36.4-1 Severity: serious Tags: upstream Justification: wrong upstream source; binary package unusable for its documented purpose
Dear Maintainer, golang-k8s-metrics-dev 0.36.4-1 in unstable installs files under /usr/share/gocode/src/k8s.io/metrics/, but that tree is not the kubernetes/metrics module. Evidence on an unstable chroot after installing golang-k8s-metrics-dev: $ head -3 /usr/share/gocode/src/k8s.io/metrics/go.mod module k8s.io/component-helpers go 1.26.0 $ head -5 /usr/share/gocode/src/k8s.io/metrics/doc.go package componenthelpers The installed layout (auth/rbac, apps/poddisruptionbudget, node/topology, apimachinery/lease, …) matches k8s.io/component-helpers, which is already packaged correctly as golang-k8s-component-helpers-dev under k8s.io/component-helpers. The real upstream for this source package is: https://github.com/kubernetes/metrics (go.mod: module k8s.io/metrics) At tag v0.36.4 that repository provides the expected API client paths, e.g.: k8s.io/metrics/pkg/apis/metrics/v1beta1 k8s.io/metrics/pkg/client/clientset/versioned Those directories are absent from golang-k8s-metrics_0.36.4.orig.tar.gz / golang-k8s-metrics-dev. Homepage and Description claim metrics APIs/clients, but the orig tarball appears to be component-helpers content renamed into the metrics import path. Impact: reverse dependencies that import the metrics client (e.g. packaging of github.com/hrodrig/groot, ITP #1148543) FTBFS with: cannot find package "k8s.io/metrics/pkg/apis/metrics/v1beta1" cannot find package "k8s.io/metrics/pkg/client/clientset/versioned" Suggested fix: reimport the correct kubernetes/metrics orig for 0.36.4 (or the intended version), drop the mistaken component-helpers tree from this package, and keep depending on golang-k8s-component-helpers-dev only if metrics actually needs it. I can help test a corrected package against groot's Debian packaging once a fixed orig is available. Thanks, Hermes Rodríguez
