Public bug reported: [Availability] The package is already universe for quite a while and build/works fine so far. It is for example already used for https://lists.canonical.com/mailman3/postorius/lists/ OTOH it is a utility that can/could be used for much more than just the mailman3 stack.
This source builds python2 and python3 binaries (being compatible) but we will only pull in the python3 package as part of the switch to mailman3. [Rationale] This is part of the MIR activity for all dependencies of mailman3 The "main" MIR of it is at bug 1775427: Mailman (2) has only python2 support, but we strive for python3, therefore Mailman3 which has python3 support should be promoted to main. Old mailman2 had no zope, no code in this package seems to be ported from mailman2 (which would ease review). [Security] No known CVEs found. Zope in general has quite some hits, but this component seems not to be part of it. => https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=zope [Quality assurance] As part of the mailman3 stacks as of now (Disco) this installs fine and works fine. On itself it is useful to (many) other dependencies and does not need a post install configuration on its own. The package does not ask debconf questions. Zero known bugs in Ubuntu and Debian only has a request for an MIA uploader (but not the last one) for this component. The package seems ok, but wasn't touched since the initial furry in late 2015/2016. There are newer (minor) versions in pypi so we might want to bump them somewhen before 20.04 at least. IMHO we are not in a hurry with this as long as it works fine. No exotic HW involved. The package utilizes build time self tests as well as some (rather trivial) smoke test as autopkgtest. Lintian only reports very minor issues, mostly by being older (compat 9, no gpg check on watch, no https usage, ...) The package does not rely on demoted or obsolete packages. [UI standards] This is a low level library without (a lot) of user visible strings - no translations (needed). No End-user applications that needs a standard conformant desktop file. [Dependencies] Some dependencies are not in main, but we drive MIR for all related packages that are not in main at the same time. Please check the list of bugs from the main Mailman3 MIR in bug 1775427 in bug 1775427 to get an overview. [Standards compliance] The package meets the FHS and Debian Policy standards. The packaging itself is very straight forward and uses dh_* as much as possible - the d/rules fits on one screen. [Maintenance] The Server team will subscribe for the package for maintenance, but in general it seems low on updates and currently is a sync from Debian. [Background] The package description explains the general purpose and context of the package well. ** Affects: zope.configuration (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1820234 Title: [MIR] zope.configuration as dependency of mailman3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zope.configuration/+bug/1820234/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
