    <title>Testing for backports of security/stable updates</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.backports/17556</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;As part of trying to do a slightly better job of handling security and
stable updates, I'd like to propose reducing our testing requirements
for those backports.

Proposal: For stable and security updates of backported packages which
are not new upstream versions, it is not necessary to test reverse
dependencies. The only testing required is builds/installs/runs of the
package itself.

Objections to making this official backports policy?

    <title>Opening backports pre-release</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.backports/16696</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Greetings, Tech Board -
  The backports team has been playing with a proposal for about a year
now that we'd like to finally submit to you folks.

Currently, during the period between FeatureFreeze and release (about
1/3 of the cycle!), it's impossible to upload either new packages or
new features to Ubuntu (freeze exceptions excluded). Post-release,
this is an issue already addressed by the backports process. We'd like
to propose extending the use of backports by opening the backports
pocket for uploads and Debian syncs at FeatureFreeze, and then copying
the contents of the backports pocket to the x+1 release when it opens,
similar to what we do already for SRUs.

We would still enforce the current backports requirements (the package
must "build, install, and run", any reverse-dependencies must still
work with the new package, and all uploads must be approved by a
backporter). These requirements are stronger than those for general
archive uploads, so we don't believe that there is significant risk to
post-release archive quality of x+1.

I see a handful of potential issues with this, and I only have answers
for some of them, so if the TB is generally interested in the idea,
I'd certainly appreciate feedback and suggestions:

 - Skew between backports (and therefore x+1) and the main archive:
bugfixes in release not making it into backports, versions in release
superseding those in backports, etc. In general, I think we would want
a mechanism to invalidate packages in the backports pocket whenever
that package is uploaded to the release pocket, and possibly to the
proposed pocket, though I don't know what that is.

 - Archive admin workload. All backports currently require some action
from archive admins. For no-source-change uploads, an archive admin
runs a script on the archive master. For source-change uploads,
because they are uploaded post-release, they are automatically put
into the unapproved queue. Additionally, new packages have to go
through sourceNEW and binNEW. Our proposal would create additional
work for the archive admins near release time, which may be
problematic.

 - Upload privileges. I believe that currently anybody on ~ubuntu-dev
can upload any package to the backports pocket, and backporters can
approve backports of packages they otherwise would not be able to
upload. The backports team would prefer to maintain that - would it be
sufficient to ensure that manual backports uploads always go through
unapproved?

 - Component isolation. All packages in the backports pocket build
with all components enabled. This means that if we copy binaries to
x+1, we could be copying binaries built against packages from the
wrong component. It might make sense to only pocket copy source
packages into the x+1 release, instead of all packages.

If the TB approves this, the backports team would gladly take
responsibility for proposing patches to Launchpad, ubuntu-dev-tools,
ubuntu-archive-tools, and anything else we've forgotten that needs
modification to support the new workflow.

I know this is rather late notice, but I'll go ahead and add this to
tomorrow's meeting agenda in the hopes that there's time to discuss
it. I'm also generally available for in-person or IRC discussion.

Thanks,

&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

the dependencies already installed on my machine and not those in the base

they use their own machines to backport or is the building done via
Launchpad servers?  How can I debianize the source code and then use
pbuilder to build the package?

Bug expiry in Launchpad is changing
------------------------------------

The way Launchpad handles inactive bugs is changing. This affects your project
Jaunty Jackalope Backports at https://launchpad.net/jaunty-backports


What's going to change
-----------------------

Right now, the bug expiry option is enabled for Jaunty Jackalope Backports but is inactive
across all of Launchpad.

We weren't happy with the way bug expiry worked, so we turned it off. However,
now we're ready to switch it back on.

In about two weeks, we will re-enable automatic bug expiry in Launchpad.
However, we are going to deselect the bug expiry option on each project,
including Jaunty Jackalope Backports.


What this means for your project
--------------------------------

If you want Launchpad to automatically expire bugs that appear to be inactive,
you need to select the 'Expire "Incomplete" bug reports when they become
inactive' option on this page:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/jaunty-backports/+configure-bugtracker

For more detail on how Launchpad determines if a bug is inactive, visit our
help page:

https://help.launchpad.net/Bugs/Expiry

If you enable automatic bug expiry, Launchpad will start to automatically
apply the new 'Expired' status to inactive bugs from around 18 October 2010.

If you do not want Launchpad to automatically expire inactive bugs, you should
do nothing.

Why we're doing this
---------------------

Most projects have some bugs that languish with no activity. They clutter bug
listings and, let's face it, are unlikely to ever come back to life.

Automatic bug expiry lets you hand Launchpad the burden of dealing with these.

We're disabling the feature on your project, and others, so that Launchpad
continues to work for you in the way it does now -- i.e. without automatic bug
expiry. If you do want to re-enable bug expiry, it'll take just a few seconds.



Note: You may have already received this notification.  Please forgive the
additional email if that is the case.  We wanted to be sure we contacted all
the approproiate people for your project.  Also, the previous emails were sent
before the changes to your project settings.  You should double check to make
sure the settings are now what you want for automatic bug expiry.

Bug expiry in Launchpad is changing
------------------------------------

The way Launchpad handles inactive bugs is changing. This affects your project
Intrepid Ibex Backports at https://launchpad.net/intrepid-backports


What's going to change
-----------------------

Right now, the bug expiry option is enabled for Intrepid Ibex Backports but is inactive
across all of Launchpad.

We weren't happy with the way bug expiry worked, so we turned it off. However,
now we're ready to switch it back on.

In about two weeks, we will re-enable automatic bug expiry in Launchpad.
However, we are going to deselect the bug expiry option on each project,
including Intrepid Ibex Backports.


What this means for your project
--------------------------------

If you want Launchpad to automatically expire bugs that appear to be inactive,
you need to select the 'Expire "Incomplete" bug reports when they become
inactive' option on this page:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/intrepid-backports/+configure-bugtracker

For more detail on how Launchpad determines if a bug is inactive, visit our
help page:

https://help.launchpad.net/Bugs/Expiry

If you enable automatic bug expiry, Launchpad will start to automatically
apply the new 'Expired' status to inactive bugs from around 18 October 2010.

If you do not want Launchpad to automatically expire inactive bugs, you should
do nothing.

Why we're doing this
---------------------

Most projects have some bugs that languish with no activity. They clutter bug
listings and, let's face it, are unlikely to ever come back to life.

Automatic bug expiry lets you hand Launchpad the burden of dealing with these.

We're disabling the feature on your project, and others, so that Launchpad
continues to work for you in the way it does now -- i.e. without automatic bug
expiry. If you do want to re-enable bug expiry, it'll take just a few seconds.



Note: You may have already received this notification.  Please forgive the
additional email if that is the case.  We wanted to be sure we contacted all
the approproiate people for your project.  Also, the previous emails were sent
