Visit https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mrcal and click "View publishing history". Click the drop down arrow next to the most recent Deleted entry. It says that Matthias Klose deleted the package and it points to a Debian bug number. That Debian bug was filed by Matthias on that day. Unfortunately, at that point there was very little time before the Ubuntu 24.04 LTS release and manual work was necessary to fix the bug. mrcal was caught up in the mass rebuild required for xz-utils mitigation, which meant that it needed to be buildable or it was not possible to include it in the Ubuntu 24.04 LTS release. mrcal was uploaded to Debian in February but mrbuild 1.9 and 1.10 weren't uploaded until weeks later, after Debian Import Freeze when autosyncs are stopped. https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/noble-numbat-release-schedule/35649 https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/oracular-oriole-release-schedule/36460 Thank you, Jeremy Bícha -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
