Public bug reported:

[Availability]
The package libdisplay-info is already in Ubuntu universe.
The package libdisplay-info build for the architectures it is designed to work 
on.
It currently builds and works for all Ubuntu architectures except for i386 
where it isn't needed
Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdisplay-info

[Rationale]
- The package libdisplay-info is required in Ubuntu main as a build and runtime 
dependency of mutter. It is an optional dependency for mutter 46 but is 
expected to be a required dependency for mutter 47 (Ubuntu 24.10 will include 
mutter 47).
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/3602

- The package libdisplay-info will generally be useful for a large part of our 
user base
- The binary package libdisplay-info needs to be in main for mutter to more 
effectively parse computer monitor display capabilities via the EDID protocol

- The package libdisplay-info is required in Ubuntu main no later than
August 15 due to Ubuntu 24.10 Feature Freeze

[Security]
- No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past
- https://ubuntu.com/security/cve?package=libdisplay-info
- https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/libdisplay-info

- no `suid` or `sgid` binaries
- no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
- Packages do not install services, timers or recurring jobs
- Packages do not open privileged ports (ports < 1024).
- Packages do not expose any external endpoints
- Packages do not contain extensions to security-sensitive software (filters, 
scanners, plugins, UI skins, ...)

[Quality assurance - function/usage]
- The package works well right after install

[Quality assurance - maintenance]
- The package is maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu/Upstream and does not have 
too many, long-term & critical, open bugs
- Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdisplay-info
- Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=libdisplay-info
- Upstream's bug tracker 
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/emersion/libdisplay-info/-/issues

- The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support

[Quality assurance - testing]
- The package runs a test suite on build time, if it fails it makes the build 
fail, link to build log 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdisplay-info/0.1.1-2ubuntu2

- The package runs an autopkgtest, and is currently passing on some 
architectures
https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/libdisplay-info

- The package does have not failing autopkgtests right now

[Quality assurance - packaging]
- debian/watch is present and works
- debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field

- Lintian overrides are not present

- This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages.
- This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies

- The package will be installed by default, but does not ask debconf
questions

- Packaging and build is easy, link to debian/rules
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/libdisplay-info/-/blob/master/debian/rules

[UI standards]
- Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation or .desktop 
file)

[Dependencies]
- No further depends or recommends dependencies that are not yet in main

[Standards compliance]
- This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy

[Maintenance/Owner]
- The owning team will be Ubuntu Desktop (~desktop-packages) and I have their 
acknowledgement for that commitment

- This does not use static builds
- This does not use vendored code
- This package is not rust based

- The package has been built within the last 3 months in the archive
- Build link on launchpad: 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdisplay-info/0.1.1-2ubuntu2

[Background information]
- The Package description explains the package well
- Upstream Name is libdisplay-info
- Link to upstream project 
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/emersion/libdisplay-info

An additional binary packages has no reverse dependencies and can remain in 
universe:
libdisplay-info-bin

We intend to update libdisplay-info to 0.2 later in the cycle; it is a
transition and needs to be coordinated.
