Public bug reported:
[Impact]
etcd version 3.2.26+dfsg-5 had its dependency on golang-github-
prometheus-client-golang-dev updated to (>= 1.0.0~) but during Focal
development cycle golang-github-prometheus-client-golang-dev >= 1.0.0
never got out of -proposed, staying on version 0.9.2-0ubuntu3. This
makes etcd FTBFS.
etcd usually get CVEs assigned and even though it is a Universe package,
it might be that it receives a critical CVE that the Ubuntu Security
Team needs to patch, and currently it is not possible to patch it.
To fix this is basically revert what was done in version 3.2.26+dfsg-5,
the attached debdiff shows the needed changes.
Even though this is a fairly simple fix, we are not so sure on its
affect, as this could cause regressions. That's why I'm creating this
SRU, so we get more people to take a look at it.
[Test Plan]
On Ubuntu 20.04:
$ sudo apt-get build-dep etcd
Reading package lists... Done
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
builddeps:etcd : Depends: golang-github-prometheus-client-golang-dev (>=
1.0.0~) but 0.9.2-0ubuntu3 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
We should be able to get etcd source and build-dep and then run debuild
to build it.
[Where problems could occur]
With the proposed change, the etcd test suite is still passing and we
can upgrade or downgrade the package through apt. But by downgrading the
build-dependency we could be adding regressions and ABI incompatibility.
[Other Info]
This only affects Focal.
