Public bug reported: This is a proposal to backport the Python 2.7.17 release to bionic.
- python2.7 - python-stdlib-extensions - python-defaults is not required, but could be used to trigger autopkg tests in the -proposed pocket. The package builds are prepared in https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages [Impact] Provide an upstream release for Python 2.7. [Regression Potential] There is regression potential, however with a test rebuild of the main portion of the archive no regressions were found. [Test Case] No regressions in the Python test suite, and no regressions in the test rebuild of the main component of the archive (all architectures) As a test, an archive rebuild for main was performed, and no regressions were found with this new package. The archive rebuild also contained updated versions of gcc-7, gcc-8, python-stdlib-extensions and python2.7. The GCC and Python packages should not infer with each other. [Validation] Analyze the build logs for regressions. The OpenStack packaging team is checking OpenStack against the built packages in -proposed. Summary of the test rebuilds: https://people.canonical.com/~doko/ftbfs-report/test-rebuild-20191107-bionic-bionic.html https://people.canonical.com/~doko/ftbfs-report/test-rebuild-20191107-bionic-gcc7-bionic.html The first one is a reference build, the second one the test rebuild with the updated components. There are no additional regressions except for one Python test, which sometimes hangs on the buildds, sometimes passes (test_ttk_guionly). Will be disabled in a follow-up upload. ** Affects: python-stdlib-extensions (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: python2.7 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: python-stdlib-extensions (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: python2.7 (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: python2.7 (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: python-stdlib-extensions (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/1855133 Title: SRU: update python2.7 to the 2.7.17 release To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-stdlib-extensions/+bug/1855133/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
