Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal Tags: bookworm X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-emacsen@lists.debian.org, Martin <debacle@debian.org> Control: affects -1 + src:emacs-libvterm User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org Usertags: pu [ Reason ] This update backports the fixes for bug#1115607 from Forky/sid: elpa-vterm adds a wrong path to Emacs' load-path to find the library installed by emacs-libvterm. Instead of being an arch:all package that effectively hard-codes the path to find the shared library using `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu' (which is amd64 - where the arch:all package is built), it should be architecture dependent and point to the correct `/usr/lib/<triplet>/' path to work. FYI I have also filed a similar bug#1117469 for Trixie which has been accepted. [ Impact ] Without the fix, elpa-vterm on Bookworm will be unusable on non-amd64 architectures (see bug#1115607 for details). [ Tests ] The proposed fix has been manually tested using an aarch64 qemu image. [ Risks ] This risk is minimal: it changes the elpa-vterm from arch:all to arch:any, and adds Multi-Arch hints for both elpa-vterm and emacs-libvterm. [ 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 (old)stable [x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable FYI the proposed change has also been pushed to debian/bookworm branch in the team repo[1]. [ Other Info ] As bug#1117469 has been accepted for Trixie, I have taken the privilege and already uploaded to bookworm-proposed-updates so that the Stable Release Manager can directly review the packages. Hope this is OK. [1] https://salsa.debian.org/emacsen-team/emacs-libvterm/-/tree/debian/bookworm?ref_type=heads -- Regards, Xiyue Deng

+ * Backport fix for #1115607 from forky/sid
+ - Make elpa-vterm arch:any: elpa-vterm sets the shard library path
+ according to the host arch. Previously when set as arch:all, the
+ `load-path' is set once during building arch:all package and won't
+ change based on the host arch, resulting in wrong `load-path' in
+ non-amd64 archs.
+ - Add `Multi-Arch: no' hint to elpa-vterm.
+ - Add `Multi-Arch: same' hint to emacs-libvterm. (Closes: #1115607)
