Ok then, I'll prepare an oldstable backport and send a request to the
release-team later today.

Thanks,

Thanks, I wasn't aware of that.

This was introduced in dpkg 1.21.10, reverted in 1.21.19 and reintroduced
in 1.21.21, but that was after the 1.22.x series had already been branched
(so it got cherry picked from git main at the time, and that's why it
looked like it got introduced only in 1.22.0).

I guess I could backport it to dpkg 1.20.x for oldstable, but if the
infra servers are going to be upgraded soon (at least out of oldstable
to stable), then perhaps there's no point in bothering the release-team
with this?

Thanks,

Bug#1051763: dpkg: Please backport support for loong64 to oldstable and stable

2023-09-12 Thread John Paul Adrian Glaubitz
Source: dpkg
Version: 1.21.22
Severity: normal
User: debian-de...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: loong64
X-Debbugs-Cc: zhangjial...@loongson.cn,zhangdan...@loongson.cn

Hello!

In order to be able to add loong64-specific changes to source packages, the 
dpkg version on the
infrastructure servers, in particular DAK, needs to be able to recognize 
loong64 in d/control.

Since the servers are running oldstable and stable and loong64 support was only 
added to dpkg
1.22.0, I would like to ask for loong64 to be backported to the dpkg version in 
oldstable and
stable.

Thanks,
Adrian
