Public bug reported:

[Availability]
The package libebur128-1 is already in Ubuntu universe. The package libebur128 
builds for the architectures it is designed to work on. It currently builds and 
works for architectures: any (amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x, 
i386).
Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libebur128

[Rationale]
The package libebur128-1 is a new runtime dependency of package pipewire that 
we already support. This dependency and  the ebur128 module was moved out of 
the package to libspa-0.2-modules-extra in universe. If libebur128 is accepted 
in main the ebur128 module can go back being pre-installed with pipewire.

- There is no other/better way to solve this that is already in main or should 
go universe->main instead of this.
- This is the first time package will be in main
- All other binary packages built by libebur128 should remain in universe

- It would be great and useful to community/processes to have the
package libebur128-1 in Ubuntu main, but there is no definitive
deadline. The dependency on libebur128-1 been resolved for now using a
work around.

[Security]
- No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past

- no `suid` or `sgid` binaries
- no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
- Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs
- Security has been kept in mind in the sense that the package provides APIs 
for operations that are mathematical in nature. The library does not access 
system resources other than compute and memory.
- Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024).
- Package does not expose any external endpoints
- Packages contains extensions to security-sensitive package pipewire. pipewire 
has CVE-2022-4964 as the only CVE reported against it.

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

[Quality assurance - maintenance]
- The package is not under active development but does not have any, long-term 
& critical, open bugs
  - Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libebur128/+bug
  - Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=libebur128
  - Upstream's bug tracker https://github.com/jiixyj/libebur128/issues
 - The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support

[Quality assurance - testing]
- The package does not run a test at build time because the package is not 
setup to do so. The package source contains tests, which are broken at the 
moment. The package will need changes to fix and run those as a part of the 
build. A follow up bug LP #2117702 has been filed against the package to fix 
and run the tests.
- The package does not run an autopkgtest.

[Quality assurance - packaging]
- debian/watch is present and works
- debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field
- This package does not yield massive lintian Warnings, Errors
- Please link to a recent build log of the package: 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libebur128/1.2.6-1build1/+build/28122684/+files/buildlog_ubuntu-noble-amd64.libebur128_1.2.6-1build1_BUILDING.txt.gz
 
- Please attach the full output you have got from
  `lintian --pedantic` as an extra post to this bug.
