Public bug reported: [Availability] The package lerc is already in Ubuntu universe. The package lerc build for the architectures it is designed to work on. It currently builds and works for architetcures: amd64 arm64 armhf ppc64el riscv64 s390x fails since upstream doesn't support big endian architecture https://github.com/Esri/lerc/blob/master/src/LercLib/Defines.h#L56 which was discussed on in Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=990789
Debian is built tiff without lerc support to workaround that issue. Ideally it would be available on every architecture but it's probably not important for s390x users so we think the current solution is acceptable. Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lerc [Rationale] - The package lerc is required in Ubuntu main as a new depends of tiff. - The package lerc is required in Ubuntu main no later than aug 25 due to feature freeze [Security] - No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past - no `suid` or `sgid` binaries - no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin` - Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs - Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024) - Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software [Quality assurance - function/usage] - The package works well right after install [Quality assurance - maintenance] The package is rather now but seems well maintained in Debian/Ubuntu and has no open bug reports - The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support [Quality assurance - testing] - The package runs a test suite on build time, if it fails it makes the build fail, link to build log https://launchpadlibrarian.net/573017632/buildlog_ubuntu-jammy-amd64.lerc_3.0+ds-1_BUILDING.txt.gz - The package runs an autopkgtest, and is currently passing on this amd64 arm64 armhf ppc64el list of architectures, link to test logs https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/l/lerc The i386 failure is due to python3 packages installability issues on that architecture. The s390x one is due to the fact that the library isn't build on that architecture as explained earlier. This is ok because neither of those are sign of problems with the library. [Quality assurance - packaging] - debian/watch is present and works # lintian --pedantic running with root privileges is not recommended!
