[Touch-packages] [Bug 1730035] Re: Needs to depend on Python3
For those who really don't want python3-apport and apport installed, despite what Ubuntu maintainers say: Create a new package with "Provides: python3-apport" that is otherwise empty. Then python3-apport and apport can be uninstalled.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1773087] Re: Remove python3-apport as dependency of xserver-xorg
It's perfectly fine if apport and python3-apport are installed by default. But I don't see how xserver-xorg actually depends on python3-apport. To quote from the Ubuntu Policy Manual: """ The Depends field should be used if the depended-on package is required for the depending package to provide a significant amount of functionality. The Depends field should also be used if the postinst, prerm or postrm scripts require the package to be present in order to run. Note, however, that the postrm cannot rely on any non-essential packages to be present during the purge phase.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1652325] Re: Libxml2 2.9.3 fails to parse multi-byte character in large CDATA section that is split across buffer
I'm currently moving servers to 16.04. I'm affected by this bug. Would you please fix it in 16.04? Cheers! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to libxml2 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1652325 Title: Libxml2 2.9.3 fails to parse multi-byte character in large CDATA section that is split across buffer Status in libxml2 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Ubuntu 16.04 packages libxml2 version 2.9.3*, which contains a regression documented here: https://git.gnome.org/browse/libxml2/commit/?id=4f8606c13cb7f2684839f850b83de5ce647d3ca7 Full release notes of 2.9.4 can be seen here: http://xmlsoft.org/news.html The bug will affect XML push parser that fails with bogus UTF-8 encoding error when multi-byte character in large CDATA section is split across buffer, which can be quite common. As Xenial is an LTS version and this bug is quite *critical*, I wonder if we should provide an update to fix this one. If I remember correctly, we're not supposed to update to a newer version a given package for a given version of Ubuntu, but as this version of Ubuntu will be used in many servers in the coming years and XML parsing is quite a common task, it may help a lot of developers to have a backported fix of this issue.
