[ Reason ] The upload of borgbackup/1.2.4-1 broke vorta/0.8.10-1, because that release of borg breaking changes (during the soft freeze), and no one noticed until bookworm was released as stable. [ Impact ] Some core functionality in Vorta is broken in bookworm; specifically, the ability to diff between backups. This issue was discovered and reported by a user at Bug #1042671. Additionally, I think this issue must be fixed because we are proud of how well our stable release process works; Our freeze, and stable updates, exist to prevent this sort of bug from impacting users in stable releases. [ Tests ] This packages has build-time tests as well as both types of autopkgtests for Python packages. Autopkgtests run with xvfb-run to be as close to real-world usage as possible. Finally, Lutz Lübbert confirms that the targeted fix proposed in this upload works correctly: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1042671#31 [ Risks ] Insignificant. The changes introduced in the fix this upload cherry picked from upstream have already been tested in vorta/0.8.12-1 for over two months, as well by users of upstream's 0.8.11 release in April. The changes are found in 0006-Handle-ctime-and-mtime-diff-changes-1675.patch, they look like to obvious and correct solution to me. It would be possible to fix this from the borgbackup side, but I think we will agree that fixing this in a vorta p-u is the correct approach. [ Checklist ] [x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] This upload adds 0006-Handle-ctime-and-mtime-diff-changes-1675.patch, which adapts vorta to the ctime and mtime tracking introduced in borgbackup/1.2.4-1. It also adds test coverage for this change. <#part type="application/octet-stream" filename="/home/sten/Dropbox/tmp/0.8.10-1_to_0.8.10-1+deb12u1.debdiff" disposition=attachment> <#/part> Thank you for your consideration, Nicholas
