Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal User: release.debian....@packages.debian.org Usertags: unblock
Hi, please unblock mdevctl 0.81-1. It fixes a problem with an allowed combined usage two parameters. v0.78 -> 0.81 sounds a lot, but that is due to the way upstream creates versions which essentially is a counter of git commits. Therefore the only real change is [1] which should be ok for the freeze time. There are two packaging-only changes which I had in git but not uploaded yes (as they didn't qualify for an upload without any fix. But both are no-impact changes (compat level while the package has not much that is affected by it and the drop of the unused d/source/local-options. The builds all LGTM, see [2]. I have installed the new build and it works as expected: Before # mdevctl define -p 0.0.0033 --jsonfile mdev_nodedev.json /usr/sbin/mdevctl: line 183: /etc/mdevctl.d/0.0.0033/eea1c8dc-ce6d-42dd-bd26-02e3b707ff95: No such file or directory After # mdevctl define -p 0.0.0033 --jsonfile mdev_nodedev.json 83123a52-3147-44d1-9154-1175e266804e The package has no autopkgtests as they would be superficial and not much worth or would need mdev splittable GPUs or such on the test systems which we can not assume/expect to have. Therefore I need to ask you via this ubblock request. I hope that this is sufficient to unblock, if you need anything else please let me know.
