> This package uses root access and deals with user accounts. A security
review is recommended.

Not particularly, it only works at user session level though

> Problems: This package has no autopkgtests and the original MIR does
not give justification why. Please either add an autopkgtest or give a
justification why they are not necessary for this package.

I will add autopkgtests in debian

** Description changed:

  [Availability]
  
  The package user-session-migration is already in Ubuntu universe.
  The package user-session-migration build fine.
  
  Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/user-session-
  migration
  
  The package is actually already in main as
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/session-migration but it has
  been now ported to debian and renamed.
  
  [Rationale]
  
  The plan is to use the more maintained debian version in ubuntu, and
  just dismiss the old session-migration by making it a transitional
  package.
  
   - The package TBDSRC is required in Ubuntu main for user sessions migration
     as session-migration already does, but it allows us to reduce the delta 
with debian
     in packages that require migration.
  
   - The solution we already have in main is not maintained anymore.
   - The original source package was in MIR as per (LP: #1024381)
  
   - The binary package user-session-migration needs to be in main to be seeded 
and run on every user login
   - All other binary packages built by user-session-migration should remain in 
universe
  
   - It would be great and useful to community/processes to have the
     package user-session-migration in Ubuntu main, while there is no 
definitive deadline,
     having it by early next cycle would help the transition to the new tool.
  
  [Security]
  
   - No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past (for both sources):
     https://ubuntu.com/security/cves?package=user-session-migration
     https://ubuntu.com/security/cves?package=session-migration
  
   - The package install systemd user services enabled by default
  
   - Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024).
   - Packages open privileged ports (ports < 1024), but they have
   - Package does not expose any external endpoints
  
  [Quality assurance - function/usage]
   - The package works well right after install
  
  [Quality assurance - maintenance]
   - The package is maintained well in Debian and does
     not have too many, long-term & critical, open bugs
  
     - Ubuntu 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/user-session-migration/+bug
     - Debian 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=user-session-migration
     - Debian (upstream) 
https://salsa.debian.org/debian-ayatana-team/user-session-migration
  
   - The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support
  
  [Quality assurance - testing]
  
  Various basic tests are present in the source code, and the tool runs
  already for some years in million on machines.
  
  https://salsa.debian.org/debian-ayatana-team/user-session-
  migration/-/tree/main/tests
  
  [Quality assurance - packaging]
   - debian/watch is not present because it is a native package
  
   - debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field
   - Packaging and build is easy, link to debian/rules TBD
  
  [UI standards]
   - Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation)
  
  [Dependencies]
  
  They are all in main
  
  [Standards compliance]
   - This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy
  
  [Maintenance/Owner]
  
   - I Suggest the owning team to be ~ubuntu-desktop
+ 
+ 
+ [Background information]
+  The Package description explains the package well
+  Upstream Name is 
https://salsa.debian.org/debian-ayatana-team/user-session-migration
