 Fair enough. Having conversations somewhere other than meandering
debian-devel threads is probably the way forward!

Well, the longer we spend on it, the more time we're going to have to spend
re-analyzing libraries in the archive to identify ABI breaks as things
drift.  And my proposal in Debian has been to kick this off when trixie
opens.  So I do think it's better for us to move forward.

We definitely don't want our dpkg-buildflags to differ from Debian's on this
for any significant amount of time.

We still don't have a definitive agreement on what to do with i386, but I
think that will shake out once we have a dpkg-buildflags implementation to
discuss.

Ah we are going to try that for 24.04 are we? Somehow I had the feeling we
were going to be more cautious. But I think it's probably a good idea to
get it over with.

Do you think the necessary people are convinced on the Debian side to land
this early in trixie or is there still more arguing to be done there?

Thanks for raising this valid concern.

In addition to the counterpoints raised by Jeremy and Seb, I'd point out
that moving up the Debian import freeze would also be an obstacle to landing
the 64-bit time_t migration this cycle, which I think we definitely want to
do in 23.10, not in 24.04.

So I think we should keep the schedule as-is.

Re: Debian release date and Debian Import Freeze

2023-05-25 Thread Sebastien Bacher

Hey there,

I agree with Jeremy there and I would prefer to take on some extra load 
this cycle and avoid extra disruptions during the LTS cycle. If there 
are specific concerns about some transitions maybe we can go the other 
way around and avoid syncing some specific components instead?


Cheers,
Sébastien

Hi release team,

Debian bookworm is scheduled to be released on June 10. Debian Import 
Freeze is currently scheduled for about six weeks later, on August 17. 
Do we want to shut off debian imports early, basically as soon as 
bookworm releases, to avoid having all our work overwhelmed by a bunch 
of transitions in Debian?

My opinion is that moving Debian Import Freeze all the way to June 10
is too early. It would mean that more transitions and major changes
would happen during the 24.04 LTS cycle instead.

Thank you,

Debian release date and Debian Import Freeze

Hi release team,

Debian bookworm is scheduled to be released on June 10. Debian Import
Freeze is currently scheduled for about six weeks later, on August 17. Do
we want to shut off debian imports early, basically as soon as bookworm
releases, to avoid having all our work overwhelmed by a bunch of
transitions in Debian?
