Hi! [ Reason ] This request includes several targeted minimal fixes for issues found in dpkg 1.20.10, including one regression introduced in the security update. I mentioned to Adam that I'd prepare two sets of debdiffs, one with just the regression fix and another one with fixes for the other pending RC and other fixes. But after checking them, the latter seemed too big for the amount of time available, and while these have all been in sid for a while they have not been tested on their own, so I think it's probably better to postpone those for a next release, that I'll be preparing once this one is handled. Instead I went with a small set of small targeted fixes. [ Impact ] a) A CI fix, that was causing the branch to fail on salsa. b) The dpkg-deb change fixes handling for truncated .debs. c) The virtual fields one fixes a regression in dpkg --showformat. d) The Dpkg::Source::Package::V2 fixes the regression from the security fix. This affects systems with "unusual" umasks. [ Tests ] a) The CI for that branch is green again. :) b) The commit includes functional tests. c) Running dpkg-deb --showformat with a virtual field now works again. d) The lintian test suite was executed successfully. [ Risks ] The set of changes cherry-picked is focused and easily verifiable. Any bigger/riskier change has been left out. [ Checklist ] [√] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [√] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [√] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [√] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] The git log is included in the debdiff, which I'm attaching in its full compressed form with no filtering applied. [ Other info ] None. Thanks, Guillem
