systemd (261.2-1ubuntu1) stonking; urgency=medium
* Merge with Debian unstable (LP: #2153359). Remaining changes:
- debian/systemd.postinst:
+ manually call systemd-tmpfiles --create in postinst
- debian/control:
+ Add Recommends: systemd-resolved to systemd package
+ Make systemd-cryptsetup Priority: important
+ Give systemd-resolved Priority: important
+ Add Recommends: systemd-hwe-hwdb to udev package
+ d/control: demote systemd-userdbd to Suggests for libnss-systemd
- d/rules: disable bpf support on riscv64 for now (LP #2099864)
- d/extra/dbus-1: remove SetLocale restriction from dbus policy (LP
#2102028)
- Delta for i386:
+ debian/systemd.install: exclude files that are not built for i386
+ debian/systemd.manpages: do not ship un-built manpages on i386
+ debian/rules,debian/control:
Do not build with tpm libraries or libqrencode on i386
+ debian/rules: Remove unneeded efi artifacts on i386 to avoid debugedit
errors
+ d/control: do not build systemd-{tpm,report,imds} on i386
- debian/tests:
+ Drop needs-internet restriction and fix test failures masked by this
(LP #2148202)
+ d/t/upstream: use mkosi from the archive to drop needs-internet
+ d/t/control: add Depends: libcrypt-dev for upstream test
- debian/patches:
+ switch-root: use MS_MOVE for /run when switchig from initrd
+ test: use gnuenv to workaround broken --block-signal= (LP #2142900)
* Dropped changes, included upstream:
- test-reduce-number-of-disks-in-TEST-64-UDEV-STORAGE-simul.patch.
Applied upstream: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/9836c4ab8c
- mkosi-pull-new-split-out-packages-for-deb-ubuntu.patch.
Applied upstream: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/06f2b81cc9
* Dropped changes, included in Debian:
- debian/libnss-systemd.nss:
+ Install systemd service after files.
As suggested by upstream the systemd NSS service should come just after
files
- Install after 'compat' too (LP #2125403)
* Dropped changes, no longer needed:
- d/systemd.postinst: drop systemd-tmpfiles --create call.
This exists expressly so that 00rsyslog.conf is included when upgrading
systemd. But, Ubuntu now builds so that /var/log has a default access
mode of 0755, which will not clobber the changes in 00rsyslog.conf.
* New changes:
- Fix conflict with 00rsyslog.conf (LP: #2158686)
+ meson: add build option for /var/log mode
+ d/rules: set /var/log mode to 0775 on ubuntu
