Re: Merge Opportunities Report - 2021-03-01
Utkarsh asked for a rundown of which subset of these packages appear to be bugfix-only (thus mergeable without FFe). Here's my take: ## Potential Sync? ## The ubuntu delta for these packages is now in Debian or upstream, and looks like we may be able to sync the package now. > cyrus-sasl2 2.1.27+dfsg-2.1 > 2.1.27+dfsg-2ubuntu1 > php-pear 1:1.10.12+submodules+notgz+20210212-1 > 1:1.10.9+submodules+notgz-1.1ubuntu1 > screen4.8.0-6 > 4.8.0-5build2 > kronosnet 1.20-41.20-2 > > w3m 0.5.3+git20210102-6 > 0.5.3+git20210102-3build1 ## Bugfix-only ## These updates have targeted bugfixes and do not appear to be introducing new features or behavior changes. So these look workable: > open-iscsi2.1.3-2 > 2.1.3-1ubuntu4 > autofs5.1.7-1 > 5.1.6-4ubuntu1 > bridge-utils 1.7-1 > 1.6-5ubuntu1 > openvpn 2.5.1-1 > 2.5.0-1ubuntu1 > sssd 2.4.1-2 > 2.4.0-1ubuntu5 (Note that you should still analyze to doublecheck there are no features or behavior changes; if there are, you may want to either just cherrypick out the bugfix patches, or prepare a FeatureFreeze exception.) ## Larger Updates ## These packages might be ok to include, but they include a lot of changes (either upstream or in Debian) and/or feature/behavior changes, so probably worth accompanying with a FFe (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess). > crmsh 4.2.1-1 > 4.2.0-4ubuntu1 > freeipmi 1.6.6-3 > 1.6.4-3ubuntu2 > php7.47.4.15-5+deb11u1 > 7.4.11-1ubuntu3 ## Experimental ## These are updated in Debian experimental, and some are introducing new upstream releases or pre-releases, so may be higher risk for inclusion. Unless we have specific needs, these probably should be deferred to next cycle. > tmux 3.2~rc3-1 3.1c-1 > > containerd1.5.0~beta2~ds1-1 1.4.3-0ubuntu1 > > haproxy 2.3.5-1 2.2.9-1build1 > > php-defaults 80~exp1 76ubuntu1 > > pkg-php-tools 1.41 1.40 > > python-django 2:3.2~beta1-1 2:2.2.19-1 > > spamassassin 4.0.0~0.0svn1886510-1 3.4.5~pre1-3 > ## Later ## These look like modest updates, cleanups, and other non-bugfix updates. Or may be simply pulling in Ubuntu's delta into Debian. Also, some of these can be time consuming or tricky to merge, or tend to be handled by other teams in Canonical. So while these may be low risk, they're also lower in value and higher in effort, so may be less worth working on unless there are specific demands for them: > apache2 2.4.46-4 > 2.4.46-2ubuntu1 > samba 2:4.13.4+dfsg-1 > 2:4.13.3+dfsg-1ubuntu2 > sosreport 4.0-2 > 4.0-1ubuntu9 > chrony4.0-6 > 4.0-5ubuntu2 > corosync 3.1.0-3 > 3.1.0-2ubuntu1 > libvirt 7.0.0-3 > 7.0.0-2ubuntu1 > mysql-defaults1.0.7 > 1.0.5ubuntu2 > rsync 3.2.3-4 > 3.2.3-3ubuntu1 > runc 1.0.0~rc93+ds1-2 > 1.0.0~rc92-0ubuntu1 > squid 4.13-5 > 4.13-1ubuntu2 > subunit 1.4.0-3 > 1.4.0-0ubuntu1 ## No-Change ## These are just rebuilds on Debian's side. > checksecurity 2.0.16+nmu2 > 2.0.16+nmu1ubuntu1 > kerberos-configs 2.6+nmu1 2.6u
Bug triage report for 2020-03-01 (Monday triage)
Bugs last updated between 2021-02-26 (Friday) and 2021-02-28 (Sunday) inclusive Date range identified as: "Monday triage" There was quite a bit of bug noise due to Launchpad's Debian BTS tracker seemingly coming alive after some inactivity. No significant bugs to mention, except that I thought I'd share these ones which I found interesting: LP: #1161012 - (Expired)[clamav] - Clamav package adds proxy to config on install and update Excellent analysis provided by a contributor which demonstrates that thsi is a bug in update-manager. Added an update-manager task. The mechanics of the bug are quite interesting: update-manager sets http(s)_proxy from apt proxy settings for (presumably) its own purposes; these leak through to the clamav maintainer script which then assumes that it'll work for other URLs and not just for apt. LP: #1915959 - *(Fix Released) [libapache2-mod-perl2] - Crashes with SIGSEGV due to undefined behaviour when calling perl_parse This was a request for a backport of an existing crash fix to Focal. I added a task and tagged server-next and bitesize. LP: #1917157 - (New)[run-one]- run-this-one is very slow This seemed important if true, so I set triage aside to do some further investigation into this. Conclusion: it affects only run-this-one and not pgrep as suggested, so I concluded it is of low importance. However the pgrep bug seems valid with a patch available, so I tagged it for investigation by the Foundations team (as they look after this package). LP: #1917170 - (New)[openvpn]- Update the package to look for configuration files in /etc/openvpn/client instead of /etc/openvpn I don't think this is appropriate to introduce an Ubuntu delta over, so I marked it Won't Fix with an explanation. LP: #702641 - (Confirmed) [samba] - samba.schema missing I don't think this is appropriate to introduce an Ubuntu delta over, so I marked it Invalid with an explanation. signature.asc Description: PGP signature -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
