--- Begin Message ---Package: src:pjproject Version: 2.7.2~dfsg-4 Severity: serious Hi, as the sole Uploader of src:pjproject for the last two years I think we should not release Buster with src:pjproject. Reasons: - pjsip is a library where a lot of functionality and behaviour is selected at compile time using #define statements. Most of these define statements alter the ABI due to changing structs, which makes it ill-suited as a system wide library to be used by several programs. - Consequently, src:ring (now called jami) has always been built against an embedded copy and src:asterisk also switched to an embedded copy, both tailored to their needs. There are no other source packages depending on src:pjproject left - python-pjproject shipped by the same source package includes the old pjsua module that has been deprecated according to https://trac.pjsip.org/repos/wiki/Python_SIP_Tutorial . There is no rdep in the Debian archive. We don't package the newer pjsua2 module. - Due to the gone rdeps the version currently in the archive is not the latest upstream version. - Upstream sometimes mixes security fixes with large scale code refactoring/formatting, which makes security updates more painful than they need to be. We don't want to have this additional work for Buster when it's not necessary. Note that at least Asterisk upstream has published security advisories for issues in pjsip before and has patched them by adding the fix as patch to the Asterisk source, which makes it much easier to follow. I'm therefor filing this RC bug to start the autoremoval from Buster. I will revisit the packaging after the release of Buster and either drop the package or get it updated (and possibly backported to buster-backports). Bernhard
