Hi backporters, Prompted by Stéphane's LXC backport, which can't go ahead in the usual way due to libseccomp in quantal-backports, I've asked for a non-virtual (builds on the real buildd hardware, for all architectures) PPA so that I can build it there, then copy with binaries into -backports.
The procedure I'll use goes something like this [the PPA has -backports
enabled and ignores components, as for backports in the primary
archive].
1. Copy problematic dependency with binaries from <target>-backports
into <target>-release in the PPA.
2. Wait for it to publish.
3. Do a backport with backportpackage, as usual, but upload it into
the PPA.
4. One this is built on all architectures, copy with binaries to
<target>-backports.
5. Delete the build from the PPA.
The PPA is
https://launchpad.net/~laney/+archive/backports
It's under my user because of a policy which means that only Canonical
employees may upload to non-virtual PPAs. Sorry about that, but grab me
in whatever way and I'll try my best to process any other backport
blocked by this bug as soon as I can.
Cheers,
