Control: affects -1 + src:grml-debootstrap
Please unblock package grml-debootstrap
[ Reason ]
0.121 contains three bug fixes for bugs reported directly into the
grml bug tracker, and one small feature improving systemd
integration.
We'd like them in, so installing Debian with grml-debootstrap
doesn't trigger these bugs and users using systemd with partition
autodetect should also get that to work OOTB.
[ Impact ]
The three bugs are on the scale from "quite annoying" to "unclear
impact, possibly disastrous on the upgrade from trixie to forky".
1) "Don't set bogus debconf variable on grub-cloud packages" is the
bug where we don't want to do something stupid now that might break
upgrading trixie installs to forky.
2) "fix skipping initrd creation using INITRD=no" is annoying, but
also is a trivial fix
3) "Verify that GRUB configuration points to valid block device"
is the quite annoying bug, because users discover this only after
waiting a long time for their install to complete and then abort.
[ Tests ]
We've got CI pipelines in Grml, and there is no regression. The
submitters have done tests for their patches, and I've done a manual
normal check on arm64, which went well.
One day we'll write autopkgtests, but not this cycle.
[ Risks ]
Honestly the diff is not very long and easy to understand. Also
grml-debootstrap is a leaf package, so it shouldn't break other
packages in testing.
[ 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 ]
Nothing I'm aware of.
Thanks!
