Bug#1069265: tzdata: Upgrade from 2023c-2 to 2024 corrupts zoneinfo files

I, too, encountered a variation of this issue today while trying to update the tzdata package on my system. I was eventually able to resolve the issue with a little manual intervention.

Similarly, I had installed tzdata 2023c-5 on what is effectively Debian Bullseye install (though what is actually an unabashed FrankenDevuan install that is mostly composed of packages from Devuan's Chimaera release). My motivation for doing so was similar: I wanted the then-current timezone database and the package in chimaera/bullseye had yet to be updated. I fully acknowledge this course of action is actively frowned upon[1].

Here's how I was able to resolve the issue. Using snapshot.debian.org, I downloaded tzdata_2023d-1_all.deb which installed without issue over 2023c-5. Afterward, I was able to install tzdata 2024a-0+deb11u1 without issue. As this issue only manifests on systems in explicitly unsupported configurations, the severity of the bug should probably be reduced from grave, but I will leave that decision to others.

Bug#1066949: slic3r-prusa: Unneeded build dependencies on xvfb, xauth
Source: slic3r-prusa Version: 1.37.1+dfsg2-1 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer, Please drop xvfb and xauth from the build dependencies for slic3r-prusa. Prior to version 1.37.1+dfsg2-1 of slic3r-prusa, the debian/rules file made use of xvfb (and, by extension, xauth), but this is no longer the case. Thanks, -- Plasma
Bug#1064018: Testsuite is not run

Your remaining proposed changes are unaffected by this patch. In versions 0.10.2-1.1 and earlier of the libcbor package in Debian, the testsuite was not run at build time. The WITH_TESTS CMake variable in the upstream source controlled the running of tests. However, this is not the idiomatic way to control test execution using CMake and the package's rules file did not define that variable. Starting with version 0.10.2-1.2, the package has been modified with my patch to run the testsuite by default. The testsuite can be skipped by running CMake with the '-DBUILD_TESTING=OFF' option. Starting with debhelper version 13.12, dh_auto_configure automatically calls CMake with that option if the DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS environment variable contains 'nocheck'. > I cannot see the tests being run at build-time even with the most > recent upload. Am I missing something? The testsuite should be run automatically starting with version 0.10.2-1.2. Please confirm you have the right version. -- Plasma

Bug#1055022: bullseye-pu: package distro-info-data/0.51+deb11u5
Stefano, Short version: Would you consider modifying this bullseye-pu for distro-info-data/0.51+deb11u5 into a bullseye-pu for a distro-info-data/0.59~deb11u1 instead? Long version: The resulting distro-info-data_0.51+deb11u5_all.deb binary package resulting from your proposed debdiff is identical within a rounding error[1] to the distro-info-data_0.59_all.deb binary package currently in testing and unstable. The 0.51+deb11u4 and 0.58 binary package versions from oldstable and stable are equally similar. Within each pair the respective source packages have diverged somewhat in spite of producing essentially identical binary packages. In my experimentation the distro-info-data 0.59 source package builds flawlessly in a bullseye chroot. I recently independently discovered Debian bug #711238[2] with devscripts and I would would like to see it fixed in unstable and my desired fix of adding to it a Build-Depends on ``` distro-info-data (>= 0.58~) ``` would be made possible by this change and would be a much cleaner fix than the alternative fix of adding Build-Depends on ``` distro-info-data (>= 0.51+deb11u4) , distro-info-data (>= 0.58) | distro-info-data (< 0.51+deb11u+) ```. [1] The only differences being the changelog, the version number, one date range in the copyright file, and any metadata directly generated from those three things, like checksums and file sizes.

It's not so much that I necessarily want to build mmdebstrap without its manpages; rather, that I find it useful to document which build dependencies are strictly needed to produce a functional program binary and which are only required to do things like generate documentation or run a testsuite. Build profiles, thus, provide an ideal way of adding this metadata in a easily actionable manner.

I haven't. Given that my patch is limited to editing a Makefile that is not in the upstream source and is instead added by the Debian packaging, I saw little reason to do so. Upstream is, of course, welcome to incorporate the Makefile into the upstream source tree, but AFAICT the upstream-recommended way of using libstb is to simply copy individual header files into a program source tree as-needed. -- Plasma
Bug#1001831: debhelper: RFC: Parse 'Rules-Requires-Root: no' in debian/control
On Sat, 18 Dec 2021 10:49:14 +0100 Niels Thykier wrote: > Hi, > > I think I am missing a rationale / What problem are you trying to > solve with this change/RFC?. > > Thanks, > ~Niels Let me try to clarify. I was recently locally building a source package that listed 'Rules-Requires-Root: no' in its debian/control file. Seeing that, I attempted, I think not unreasonably, to execute the binary target of the debian/rules file without using root. AKA: ``` $ debian/rules binary ``` This began the debhelper package build sequence which ran until the dh_testroot step which errors out with the message: ``` dh_testroot: error: You must run this as root (or use fakeroot). ``` which is rather at odds with what is stated by the debian/control header. Debian Policy § 5.6.31 lists three categories of values for the 'Rules-Requires-Root:' header: A) 'no' B) 'binary-targets' C) a list of keywords as detailed in Policy § 5.6.31.2 & 5.6.31.3 B simply denotes the existing default behavior of requiring root when calling any of the binary targets of debian/rules (a.k.a. binary-arch, binary-indep, and binary). It is currently identical in function to a complete absence of the 'Rules-Requires-Root:' header altogether. C denotes a dynamic, keyword-based system first alluded to in the original R³ proposal and fully documented in the Debian Policy sections noted previously. Because this new system requires builders to provide a special "gain root command" (detailed in Policy § 4.9.2), builders must opt-in to using this system by setting DEB_RULES_REQUIRES_ROOT and DEB_GAIN_ROOT_CMD environment variables. A on the other hand does not require providing a "gain root command" or implementing any special new behaviour. By design it should just work when the debian/rules file is run without root. However, as I read Policy § 5.6.31, Policy nevertheless mandates that the DEB_RULES_REQUIRES_ROOT environment variable must be set even in this case and dh_testroot currently enforces this. My proposal is to modify both dh_testroot and Policy to remove this requirement from case A. Thoughts?
