Bug#987015: [pre-approval] unblock: python-apt/2.2.0
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
X-Debbugs-Cc: jak@debian.org
Please unblock package python-apt
[ Reason ]
Want to bump version number to stable series versioning, mostly,
update the mirror list, and remove invalid PIE disablement which
triggers build failures in downstreams (it fails with LTO; I think
it's a no-op without LTO either way, or at least supposed to be,
given that we link with -fPIC).
Don't really care much about the build dependency !nocheck
annotations, but they were already queued. Could revert
them if needed.
[ Impact ]
Mirror selection in tools will be from December 2020.
[ Tests ]
We have unit tests run at build time, but there are no
code changes, just metadata and build flags.
[ Risks ]
I'm not sure the PIE change does much really, the code is linked with
-fPIC, the annotations could trigger bootstrapping issues, but it's
not working right now anyway so meh.
[ Checklist ]
[x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in testing
[ Other info ]
(Anything else the release team should know.)
