glibc 2.34 is coming to impish tomorrow
Hi everyone, This is just a bit of advance notice that we'll be uploading the new release of glibc, 2.34, to impish in about 24 hours and are hoping we can get it migrated before feature freeze next week. So expect autopkgtest queues to be a bit clogged for a while. As Matthias mailed yesterday we have done a test rebuild with the new glibc and while it causes a few build failures we're working through there is no evidence of trouble running existing binaries so hopefully the new version won't be too disruptive. But finding that out is what all those autopkgtests are for :-) Cheers, mwh -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel

Since there was only agreement, I think we can call this consensus. I've gone ahead and updated the release schedule now. We'll stop auto syncing some time on Thursday. https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/impish-indri-release-schedule/18540 Thanks, -- Iain Lane [ i...@orangesquash.org.uk ] Debian Developer [ la...@debian.org ] Ubuntu Developer [ la...@ubuntu.com ] signature.asc Description: PGP signature -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel

Sorry. I think we're likely to miss replies to the release schedule, so to hopefully prevent this in the future I've closed the thread and upated the docs to say to do that in future. -- Iain Lane [ i...@orangesquash.org.uk ] Debian Developer [ la...@debian.org ] Ubuntu Developer [ la...@ubuntu.com ] signature.asc Description: PGP signature -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel

Ubuntu 20.04.3 delayed until August 26th
Hello, While working towards the 20.04.3 milestone, we received reports of the currently available shim package causing daily builds of our installation media to fail to boot on some devices[1]. A fix for that is now in progress, but as we would like to make sure the new version of the package is well tested before candidate images are built. Subsequently, we decided more time is needed. In addition to that we are also investigating an unrelated issue with our RISC-V images[2], whose root cause is not yet fully understood. As we feel that rushing things through is not the right way to go, we decided to play it safe and delay the point-release date a week, to August 26th. That being said, we will be freezing the focal-updates pocket at the same date as originally planned (on August 12th), afterwards only releasing packages that are critical for the .3 milestone. Let’s all use the additional week for further testing. Remember that the progress of the 20.04.3 release can be tracked at any time via our release status tracking post on discourse: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/focal-fossa-20-04-3-lts-point-release-status-tracking/22948 Thank you.

Results of archive rebuild against OpenSSL3
Hello, As some of you may be aware, the OpenSSL project is working towards a major OpenSSL 3.0 version, which will not be ABI compatible with the current 1.1 branch[0]. They have recently released a first Release Candidate version[1], and in order to prepare for a stable release, I've uploaded a version of this release candidate on a PPA, based on the Debian Experimental version[2]. I have also uploaded to this PPA all packages currently in impish that have a direct reverse-dependency on libssl-dev, to assess the amount of breakage such a transition would bring. You'll find the result at [3], but please bear in mind that it is a really rough experiment, so it's likely that I've missed some dependencies, or that some build failures aren't related to OpenSSL at all. Note that there aren't any concrete plans for OpenSSL3 in Ubuntu *yet*, so don't panic. This work has been done in order to assess the amount of work involved in such migration. Also, since the rebuild has been done in a PPA, I had to tweak the report script quite a bit, so some of its features might not have been working properly.
