Please unblock package uml-utilities Around August, 2024 uml-utilities got removed from Debian Testing. That happened because of an FTBFS with GCC14. It was fixed with an upload on the 7th of April, 2025, followed-up with a quick NMU for futher architecture fixes uploaded on 11th of April, 2025. I entirely missed to track since then. But uml-utilities did not migrate to Debian Testing (Trixie) This bug report is to understand and request an unblock of uml-utilities, so that it can propagate to Debian Trixie [ Reason ] uml-utilities complements the primary user-mode-linux software. There may still be users using the tun/tap interface, where uml-utilities comes in handy. [ Impact ] Those users of the older tun/tap and similar interfaces will be surprised. And will have to migrate to other newer interfaces. [ Tests ] There's no code change. This is only an unblock request, given that the package hadn't migrated to Testing for almost 2 months. [ Risks ] same reasoning as above unblock uml-utilities/20070815.4-2.1
