Thank you Colin for the work! If sbuild/pbuilder need adjusting, then maybe we need to do that and then give developers some time to update their chroots so that we don't break them (in non-obvious ways) all at once. Another thought is that if there turns out to be an unintended consequence for users enabling jammy-proposed (after Jammy's release), then we'll have done that to them in an LTS instead of hitting an interim release first. That might adversely affect SRU verification workflow. But given that jammy-proposed is (after release) specifically for opt-in and more-risky-than-stable testing, perhaps that doesn't warrant delaying until Keen. -- technical-board mailing list technical-board@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/technical-board
