[Bug 1883978] Re: Possibly missing dependencies in golang-github-docker-docker-dev
After a discussion I have with Rheinard and Rick, we decided to keep docker.io package the way it is right now because this was a decision made sometime ago when we started to diverge from Debian. Long story short, in Ubuntu we use all the dependencies vendored (and not as regular dependencies on other debian packages) because we decided to keep backporting new versions of docker.io to supported LTS releases, and in the worst case scenario we would need to backport +120 packages (in the case where all the dependencies also need update). As you may know Golang dependencies are volatile and upstream developers update them, usually in their vendor directory, constantly. This is good because regardless of the LTS version you are using you have an updated version of docker.io. The side effect of this decision is that library packages which depend on docker.io library might need to declare dependency on other packages that would be provided by the docker.io library package if we were in sync with Debian. I've seen some packages in this situation and for now the workaround is to add those dependencies like Andreas mentioned in the bug description. If the number of packages needing this workaround increases considerably we should revisit this topic. ** Tags removed: server-next -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1883978 Title: Possibly missing dependencies in golang-github-docker-docker-dev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/docker.io/+bug/1883978/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Didier, what's the best way to contact them? Can you subscribe people that would be able to advise / give guidance how to best resolve the FTBFS bugs mentioned above? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1883978 Title: Possibly missing dependencies in golang-github-docker-docker-dev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/docker.io/+bug/1883978/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1883978] Re: Possibly missing dependencies in golang-github-docker-docker-dev
I don’t see any reason why we have a different set of dependencies, apart if docker has all of them vendorized in ubuntu for reason. This is more a decision from the server team anyway, as it’s them who maintains this package. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1883978 Title: Possibly missing dependencies in golang-github-docker-docker-dev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/docker.io/+bug/1883978/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I think this is also affecting many other package builds, such as https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/golang-github-containers- storage/1.20.2-3/+build/19612159 Didier, Roche, how do you feel about adding those dependencies to the ubuntu package? ** Changed in: docker.io (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: docker.io (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1883978 Title: Possibly missing dependencies in golang-github-docker-docker-dev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/docker.io/+bug/1883978/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
