** Summary changed:

- [SRU] dh-cargo: backport frame-pointer enablement facility to Noble
+ [SRU] dh-cargo: backport Rust LTO enablement facility to Noble

** Description changed:

  [ Impact ]
  
- To help developers with profiling, Ubuntu enabled frame-pointers for
- packages in the main archive.
- 
- https://ubuntu.com/blog/ubuntu-performance-engineering-with-frame-
- pointers-by-default
- 
- Rust packages require an additional change in dh-cargo that adds the
- frame-pointer option to the Rust compiler.
+ Rust packages require an additional change in dh-cargo that adds the LTO
+ option to the Cargo build tool.
  
  This SRU bug tracks the dh-cargo changes backported to Noble.
  
  [ Test Plan ]
  
  A limited test-rebuild of Rust binary packages could be performed in a
  PPA to validate that this change does not break any existing package.
  
  [ Where problems could occur ]
  
- Older Rust compilers might have issues on s390x due to the unrecognized
- backchain feature string. This does not affect code generation, as the
- feature string is still passed to LLVM (the code generation backend) for
- processing.
+ Older Rust compilers might have issues with LLVM ThinLTO due to LLVM bugs.
+ This should affect us since we currently use a newer LLVM version.
