Hi, Starting with announcement:
The next dpkg upload will change the default!The Release Team has accepted the default change as long as we follow it to the door, which I have every intention to do. :)
With this, we are now entering the endgame for this transition! # How can you help? * Apply patches and upload if there is already a patch or NMU for your package. Alternatively, approving the NMU, so we can upload without delay is also very helpful! * If your package has an open bug without a patch at this time, please just add `Rules-Requires-Root: binary-targets` to `debian/control` and then upload. This has no risk of regressions and a proper fix can always be done later. * Help us ensure all the packages uploaded migrates to testing! * If you run into any kind of issues due to this transition, please feel free to CC me for advice/patches/NMUs. # Qualitative updates * Trixie will be "rootless by default!" * All the bugs will become RC for sid + trixie as of the next dpkg upload. # Quantitative updates In total, 223 bugs where filed under the usertag: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=rrr-no-as-default-issue;users=ni...@thykier.net Numbers as of this email: * 102 are resolved (46%) * 38 are tagged pending (17%) * 49 are tagged patch excluding pending (22%) If all patches were applied and uploaded in this instant, we would have been 85% done with the bugs. I think there are also some pending RMs, but I have not included them (I am trying to keep the manual crossing checking to a minimum). # Thanks Thanks to all of you who: * Provided patches or did NMUs * Reviewed the patches and either uploaded or approved the NMUs, so we could quickly upload. * Process packages for removals! Best regards, Niels
