Hi all,

Last week I uploaded glibc to jammy-proposed. This gummed up the
autopkgtest queues a good deal as usual but once all is done there are two
regressions (well three currently but I think one will go away on retry):
libassuan/2.5.5-1 and libgpg-error/1.43-3. These fail in the same way: they
have a test that tries to install wine32.

wine32 depends on libc6:i386. The pinning set up by autopkgtest means that
the native libc6 from proposed is installable (is already installed in
fact) but libc6:i386 from proposed is not. This sounds like a bug in
autopkgtest but anyway, it causes autopkgtest to flip into "try all
packages from proposed" mode, so wine32 is installed from proposed
whereupon the tests fail because of
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1006827 (fallout from
fixing https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1006539).

There are a few ways this could potentially be fixed: fix autopkgtest to
put foreign versions of packages in
the /etc/apt/preferences.d/autopkgtest-RELEASE-POCKET file, fixing wine
somehow (maybe wine32 should depend on wine now? maybe l_inlt.nls needs to
move back to libwine), change libassuan and libgpg-errors tests to depend
on wine as well, removing the wine package from proposed on the assumption
that a fix will come from a sourceful change to wine.

What I can't see how to do is to fix this via a hint: we could badtest
libassuan/2.5.5-1 and libgpg-error/1.43-3 but then wine would migrate
despite the fact that it really does seem to have a regression.

I think the fixes that make most sense to me are either forcing glibc to
migrate anyway or removing wine from proposed. I'll have a poke at fixing
autopkgtest but that might take a little while to get anywhere.

Cheers,
mwh
