Please unblock package racket
[ Reason ]
The current version of racket in testing has extremely slow startup on
non-amd64 platforms. The reporter of #1085959 reported 60x improvement
with the fix 8.16+dfsg1-3 (on arm64). My own experience is about a 90x
speedup for startup.
[ Impact ]
For many users the slow startup will make racket unusable on non-amd64
platforms. I did notice that after it started up, it was fairly
responsive. The workaround mentioned in the bug is fairly easy (just
editing a config file), but users would have to figure that out / find
the bug log.
[ Tests ]
I have tested the upgrade manually and with piuparts. I have also tested that
the
new package has decent performance. All of these were performed on amd64 and
arm64 bare hardware running Debian testing (amd64) or unstable (arm64).
[ Risks ]
The diff is small, but it does involve maintainer scripts, and adding
a versioned breaks / replaces. Racket is almost a leaf package; there
is one package that depends on it (minlog) but that dependency says
guile will work as well.
[ 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 testing
[ Other info ]
I'm still waiting for the mips64el, riscv64, and ppc64 autobuilders,
but I wanted to file this before I forget.
