In cases where - RULE: this is not possible (e.g. native packages), the package should either - RULE: provide a debian/README.source file or a debian/watch file (with - RULE: comments only) providing clear instructions on how to generate the - RULE: source tar file. - TODO-A: - debian/watch is present and works - TODO-B: - debian/watch is not present, instead it has TBD - TODO-C: - debian/watch is not present because it is a native package - - RULE: - The package should define the correct "Maintainer:" field in - RULE: debian/control.

TODO-A: - Lintian overrides are not present TODO-B: - Lintian overrides are present, but ok because TBD - RULE: - The package should not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages. - RULE: That currently includes package dependencies on Python2 (without - RULE: providing Python3 packages), and packages depending on GTK2. - TODO: - This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages. - TODO: - This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies + - This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages. + - This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies RULE: - Debconf questions should not bother the default user too much TODO-A: - The package will be installed by default, but does not ask debconf TODO-A: questions higher than medium TODO-B: - The package will not be installed by default RULE: - The source packaging (in debian/) should be reasonably easy to RULE: understand and maintain. TODO-A: - Packaging and build is easy, link to debian/rules TBD TODO-B: - Packaging is complex, but that is ok because TBD [UI standards] TODO-A: - Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation) TODO-B: - Application is end-user facing, Translation is present, via standard TODO-B: intltool/gettext or similar build and runtime internationalization TODO-B: system see TBD TODO-A: - End-user applications that ships a standard conformant desktop file, TODO-A: see TBD TODO-B: - End-user applications without desktop file, not needed because TBD [Dependencies] RULE: - In case of alternative the preferred alternative must be in main. RULE: - Build(-only) dependencies can be in universe RULE: - If there are further dependencies they need a separate MIR discussion RULE: (this can be a separate bug or another task on the main MIR bug) TODO-A: - No further depends or recommends dependencies that are not yet in main TODO-B: - There are further dependencies that are not yet in main, MIR for them TODO-B: is at TBD TODO-C: - There are further dependencies that are not yet in main, the MIR TODO-C: process for them is handled as part of this bug here. [Standards compliance] RULE: - Major violations should be documented and justified.

RULE: This requirement of an owning-team comes in two aspects: RULE: - A case needs to have a team essentially saying "yes we will own that" RULE: to enter the MIR process. Usually that is implied by team members RULE: filing MIR requests having the backup by their management for the RULE: long term commitment this implies. RULE: - A community driven MIR request might be filed to show the use case, RULE: but then, as a first step, needs to get a team agreeing to own RULE: it before the case can be processed further. RULE: If unsure which teams to consider have a look at the current mapping RULE: http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/m-r-package-team-mapping.html RULE: In that case (you are not a representative of the team who will RULE: gain the long term committment to this) please ask a representative RULE: of that team to comment on the bug acknowledging that they are ok to RULE: own it. RULE: - The package needs a bug subscriber before it can be promoted to main. RULE: Strictly speaking that subscription can therefore wait until the RULE: moment of the actual promotion by an archive admin. But it is RULE: strongly recommended to subscribe early, as the owning team will get RULE a preview of the to-be-expected incoming bugs later on. RULE: - Simple packages (e.g. language bindings, simple Perl modules, small RULE: command-line programs, etc.) might not need very much maintenance RULE: effort, and if they are maintained well in Debian we can just keep them RULE: synced. They still need a subscribing team to handle bugs, FTBFS and RULE: tests RULE: - More complex packages will usually need a developer or team of RULE: developers paying attention to their bugs, whether that be in Ubuntu RULE: or elsewhere (often Debian). Packages that deliver major new headline RULE: features in Ubuntu need to have commitment from Ubuntu developers RULE: willing to spend substantial time on them. TODO-A: - The owning team will be TBD and I have their acknowledgement for TODO-A: that commitment TODO-B: - I Suggest the owning team to be TBD TODO-A: - The future owning team is already subscribed to the package TODO-B: - The future owning team is not yet subscribed, but will subscribe to TODO-B: the package before promotion RULE: - Responsibilities implied by static builds promoted to main, which is RULE: not a recommended but a common case with golang and rust packages. RULE: - the security team will track CVEs for all vendored/embedded sources in main RULE: - the security team will provide updates to main for all `golang-*-dev` RULE: packages RULE: - the security team will provide updates to main for non-vendored RULE: dependencies as per normal procedures (including e.g., RULE: sponsoring/coordinating uploads from teams/upstream projects, etc) RULE: - the security team will perform no-change-rebuilds for all packages RULE: listing an CVE-fixed package as Built-Using and coordinate testing RULE: with the owning teams responsible for the rebuilt packages RULE: - for packages that build using any `golang-*-dev` packages: RULE: - the owning team must state their commitment to test RULE: no-change-rebuilds triggered by a dependent library/compiler and to RULE: fix any issues found for the lifetime of the release (including ESM RULE: when included) RULE: - the owning team must provide timely testing of no-change-rebuilds RULE: from the security team, fixing the rebuilt package as necessary RULE: - for packages that build with approved vendored code: RULE: - the owning team must state their commitment to provide updates to RULE: the security team for any affected vendored code for the lifetime of RULE: the release (including ESM when included) RULE: - the security team will alert the owning team of issues that may RULE: affect their vendored code RULE: - the owning team will provide timely, high quality updates for the RULE: security team to sponsor to fix issues in the affected vendored code RULE: - the owning team will use a minimal set of vendored code (e.g., Rust RULE: packages are unlikely to need `*_win` crates to build) RULE: - if subsequent uploads add new vendored components or dependencies RULE: these have to be reviewed and agreed by the security team. RULE: - Such updates in the project might be trivial, but imply that a RULE: dependency for e.g. a CVE fix will be moved to a new major version. RULE: Being vendored that does gladly at least not imply incompatibility RULE: issues with other packages or the SRU policy. But it might happen RULE: that this triggers either: RULE: a) The need to adapt the current version of the main package and/or RULE: other vendored dependencies to work with the new dependency RULE: b) The need to backport the fix in the dependency as the main RULE: package will functionally only work well with the older version RULE: c) The need to backport the fix in the dependency, as it would imply RULE: requiring a newer toolchain to be buildable that isn't available RULE: in the target release. RULE: - The rust ecosystem currently isn't yet considered stable enough for RULE: classic lib dependencies and transitions in main; therefore the RULE: expectation for those packages is to vendor (and own/test) all RULE: dependencies (except those provided by the rust runtime itself). RULE: This implies that all the rules for vendored builds always RULE: apply to them. In addition: RULE: - The rules and checks for rust based packages are preliminary and might RULE: change over time as the ecosystem matures and while RULE: processing the first few rust based packages. RULE: - It is expected rust builds will use dh-cargo so that a later switch RULE: to non vendored dependencies isn't too complex (e.g. it is likely RULE: that over time more common libs shall become stable and then archive RULE: packages will be used to build). RULE: - The tooling to get a Cargo.lock that will include internal vendored RULE: dependencies is described at: RULE: https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-mir/blob/main/vendoring/Rust.md RULE: - An example of how Rust dependency vendoring can be automated is RULE: "s390-tools", isolating crates in a .orig-vendor.tar.xz tarball: RULE: * https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/s390-tools/tree/debian/rules RULE: Other examples include "authd" (for a native package, combined with RULE: Golang vendoring) and "gnome-snapshot" (using debian/missing-sources): RULE: * authd: RULE: https://github.com/ubuntu/authd/blob/main/debian/rules RULE: * gnome-snapshot: RULE: https://salsa.debian.org/ubuntu-dev-team/snapshot/-/blob/ubuntu/latest/debian/README.source RULE: - All vendored dependencies (no matter what language) shall have a RULE: way to be refreshed TODO-A: - This does not use static builds TODO-B: - The team TBD is aware of the implications by a static build and TODO-B: commits to test no-change-rebuilds and to fix any issues found for the TODO-B: lifetime of the release (including ESM) TODO-A: - This does not use vendored code TODO-B: - The team TBD is aware of the implications of vendored code and (as TODO-B: alerted by the security team) commits to provide updates and backports TODO-B: to the security team for any affected vendored code for the lifetime TODO-B: of the release (including ESM). TODO-A: - This does not use vendored code TODO-B: - This package uses vendored go code tracked in go.sum as shipped in the TODO-B: package, refreshing that code is outlined in debian/README.source TODO-C: - This package uses vendored rust code tracked in Cargo.lock as shipped, TODO-C: in the package (at /usr/share/doc/<pkgname>/Cargo.lock - might be TODO-C: compressed), refreshing that code is outlined in debian/README.source TODO-D: - This package uses vendored code, refreshing that code is outlined TODO-D: in debian/README.source TODO-A: - This package is not rust based TODO-B: - This package is rust based and vendors all non language-runtime TODO-B: dependencies RULE: - Some packages build and update often, in this case everyone can just RULE: check the recent build logs to ensure if it builds fine. RULE: But some other packages are rather stable and have not been rebuilt RULE: in a long time. There no one can be confident it would build on e.g. RULE: an urgent security fix. Hence we ask if there has been a recent build. RULE: That might be a recent build that has been done anyway as seen on RULE: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/<source>, a reference to a recent RULE: archive test rebuild (those are announced on the ubuntu-devel mailing RULE: list like https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2024-January/001342.html), RULE: or a build set up by the reporter in a PPA with all architectures RULE: enabled. TODO-A: - The package has been built within the last 3 months in the archive TODO-B: - The package has been built within the last 3 months as part TODO-B: of a test rebuild TODO-C: - The package has been built within the last 3 months in PPA TODO-D: - The package has been built within the last 3 months in sbuild as it TODO-D: can not be uploaded yet RULE: - To make it easier for everyone, please provide a link to that build so RULE: everyone can follow up easily e.g. checking the various architectures. RULE: Example https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/1:8.2.2+ds-0ubuntu1 TODO: - Build link on launchpad: TBD [Background information] Sequo RULE: - The package descriptions should explain the general purpose and context RULE: of the package. Additional explanations/justifications should be done in RULE: the MIR report. RULE: - If the package was renamed recently, or has a different upstream name, RULE: this needs to be explained in the MIR report. TODO: The Package description explains the package well TODO: Upstream Name is TBD TODO: Link to upstream project TBD TODO: TBD (any further background that might be helpful Foundations should probably make a case for replacing GnuPG with Sequoia in "main", filing corresponding MIRs for the needed sequoia components. MIR team usually likes to see some kind of transition plan, how to get rid of the older alternative (GPG) when a new one is introduced. Or technical solutions, such as a package split to ship only binary packages in main that are non-duplicates, even though the source package of two components might have some overlap. See https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-mir/blob/main/vendoring/Rust.md for vendoring Rust dependencies.
