Discussion:
- Reminders about long-standing packages in the queue (santiago)
+ There is a benefit to using Salsa issues, including a more thorough
overview being available in one place
+ Suggestion from buxy: rather than claim the package to get it
completely fixed, claim the package with a specific timeframe
objective for making one or more discrete improvements in the state
of the package
+ Suggestion from Helmut: use available regression testing
capabilities to ensure that individual fix backports are being
tested as they are being applied, rather than discovering a
regression near the end after applying many updates (and having to
perform lots of investigation to know which one introduced the
regression)
+ Consider the possibility of "obligatory" assignment of packages for
the purposes of advancing their state incrementally
+ There is a preference for contributors to voluntarily pick up and
work on these long-standing packages, rather than assigning them
obligatorily
- Short news about the lts-team/pipeline (santiago)
+ Force pushed on the lts-team/pipeline project, update your working
copy if you have one
- AOB
+ In case of more issues with the dcut migrate workflow, contact
Helmut.
- Next meeting: 2024-07-18 14:00 UTC [Location: #debian-lts on IRC]
