I don't think we should change around the libxfont and libxfont1 source packages in SRU; this would e.g. make it more confusing to try to do security updates of libxfont in xenial if necessary. It also doesn't look to me like the version bump from libxfont 1.5.1 to libxfont1 1.5.2 is justified under SRU policy.
I would prefer to see: - libxfont source SRU, renaming libxfont-dev to libxfont1-dev - libxfont2 introduced as a new source package, which can be the libxfont from artful with a source rename. For now, rejecting these two uploads from the queue pending discussion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to x11proto-core in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1687981 Title: Backport packages for 16.04.3 HWE stack Status in debhelper package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in dh-autoreconf package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in libclc package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in libdrm package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in libinput package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in libwacom package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in libxfont package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in libxfont1 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in llvm-toolchain-4.0 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in mesa package in Ubuntu: New Status in vulkan package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in wayland package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in x11proto-core package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in xorg-hwe-16.04 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in xorg-server-hwe-16.04 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in debhelper source package in Xenial: Won't Fix Status in dh-autoreconf source package in Xenial: Won't Fix Status in libclc source package in Xenial: New Status in libdrm source package in Xenial: New Status in libinput source package in Xenial: New Status in libwacom source package in Xenial: New Status in libxfont source package in Xenial: New Status in libxfont1 source package in Xenial: New Status in llvm-toolchain-4.0 source package in Xenial: New Status in mesa source package in Xenial: New Status in vulkan source package in Xenial: New Status in wayland source package in Xenial: New Status in x11proto-core source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in xorg-hwe-16.04 source package in Xenial: New Status in xorg-server source package in Xenial: New Status in xorg-server-hwe-16.04 source package in Xenial: New Bug description: [Impact] *** hwe-16.04 refresh for 16.04.3 *** Revert changes to use debhelper10. xorg-server-hwe-16.04 needs updates - wayland 1.11 (but zesty has 1.12 which mesa needs so backport that) - x11proto-core 7.0.31 - libxfont-dev 2.0.1, which also means backporting libxfont1 (NEW) x-x-i-libinput will not replace -evdev in x-x-i-all-hwe-16.04 because the unity mouse config doesn't work with -libinput. x-x-i-libinput needs newer libinput, which in turn needs libwacom update.
