Hi, Krzysztof Hajdamowicz <krzysztof@hajdamowicz.info> (2025-01-29): > Hello Debian Backports Team, > > I would like to request the backporting of liburcu and libblkid to Debian > Bookworm. > > - liburcu is available as liburcu8t64 in Trixie and Sid (version 0.14.1). > https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=liburcu8t64 > - libblkid version 2.40.4-1 exists in Trixie, and 2.40.4-2 in Sid. > https://packages.debian.org/trixie/libblkid-dev It'd be a good idea to have the relevant maintainers involved in that discussion. Quoting in full for their benefit. > I have successfully rebuilt the source package for liburcu8t64 in a > Bookworm environment after downgrading the dpkg-dev build-requirement. > However, during installation, dpkg reported that liburcu8t64 (new) breaks > liburcu8, which is a dependency for several packages (e.g., xfsprogs, > glusterfs). > After installing it with --force, xfsprogs continued to function without > issues. > I don't know why liburcu8 change package name to liburcu8t64, maybe using > old name is safe for Bookworm. That's the 64-bit time_t transition, which is irrelevant for stable and I'd think stable-backports, so the relevant changes should probably be reverted. > Both of these packages are necessary for compiling bcachefs-tools in > its recent versions. > > Would it be possible to have them backported to Bookworm? > Thank you for your time and consideration!
