- missing bug subscriber
- why don't we build the plugin on s390x? The Debian comment is
terse, and we should not diverge a library package across
architectures.
- warning: Depends field of package python-blockdev: unknown \
substitution variable ${python2:Depends}
That one doesn't exist, leaving the package without dependencies.
- the package maybe should get a security review.

Title:
[MIR] libblockdev
Status in libblockdev package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in udisks2 package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Availability
============
Built for all supported architectures. In sync with Debian.
Rationale
=========
udisks2 2.7 uses the "libblockdev library for all low level storage
management tasks instead of calling command line tools." libblockdev appears to
have the same maintainers ("storaged project") as udisks2.
It would be nice to have the new version to support GNOME Disks 3.26's new
Resize and Repair features.

There is some interest in dropping Gparted from the Ubuntu live ISO
since it does not support Wayland and it still uses gtk2.
Security
========
No known security issues

Quality assurance
=================
- Needs a bug subscriber: Ubuntu Foundations? Ubuntu Desktop?

dh_auto_test is run but I guess it's not actually running the upstream test
suite yet. (I think the upstream test suite needs to be run as autopkgtests)
See http://storaged.org/libblockdev/ch03.html
No autopkgtests
Dependencies
============
Debian's udisks2 recommends libblockdev-plugins-all which depends on these
binary packages:
- libblockdev-crypto2 which depends on the universe libvolume-key1 (source:
volume-key)
- libblockdev-btrfs2 which depends on the universe libbytesize1 (source:
libbytesize)
- libblockdev-kbd2 which depends on the universe libbytesize1 (source:
libbytesize)
- libblockdev-mdraid2 which depends on the universe libbytesize1 (source:
libbytesize)
libbytesize is another storaged project. Neither libbytesize nor
volume-key have any other universe binary dependencies. It might be ok
to temporarily not recommend those udisks2 plugins until the other 2
MIRs are processed.
Standards compliance
====================
4.1.1, debhelper compat 10, simple dh7 style rules
Maintenance
===========
Maintained in Debian by the Debian Utopia team, which is a small team focused
on cross-desktop freedesktop.org stuff.
