Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected], [email protected],
[email protected]
Control: affects -1 + src:busybox
User: [email protected]
Usertags: unblock
Please unblock package busybox
[ Reason ]
It was recently discovered that the wget-udeb package and the
busybox-wget from its udeb package both install the same binary.
The fix in busybox 1:1.37.0-6 is a targeted fix to disable the
busybox-wget, such that the current version of wget is used in the d-i
installer.
[ Impact ]
If this unblock is not granted, building the Debian installer from pure
trixie code results in FTBFS
[ Tests ]
In live-build, I've explicitly used the -6 version of busybox and was
able to have all build tests in Jenkins pass again. openQA shows that
the installer is still working as intended.
[ Risks ]
The risks are minimal, only this udeb package, which only affects the
Debian installer, is modified.
[ Checklist ]
[x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in testing
[ Other info ]
