Note that in LTS you will afterwards need either either manual Build-Depends on the new version (if making a manual upload) or extra-depends (when making a normal binNMU) since the pre-LTS version of the glibc packages is in the chroots. In the latter case any future DLAs (e.g. for bash or qemu) would again be built against the pre-LTS glibc. A solution for that would be either generating bullseye-security chroots in setup-all-dchroots and using them, or dist-upgrade at the start of the build. > Cheers! > Sylvain Beucler >... cu Adrian
