Thanks for doing those checks Christian! Rico confirmed that lp-solve
doesn't need graphblas so we went the road of demoting the dev and doc
binaries, https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-

Title:
[MIR] suitesparse-graphblas
Status in suitesparse-graphblas package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
[Availability]
The package suitesparse-graphblas is already in Ubuntu universe.
The package suitesparse-graphblas builds for the architectures it is designed
to work on.
It currently builds and works for architectures: amd64 arm64 armhf ppc64el
riscv64 s390x
Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/suitesparse-graphblas
[Rationale]
- The package suitesparse-graphblas is required in Ubuntu main to replace the
current outdated copy included in suitesparse
It's following up the change in
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/suitesparse/1:5.10.1+dfsg-3
[Security]
- No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past
- no `suid` or `sgid` binaries
- no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
- Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs
- Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024)
- Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software
[Quality assurance - function/usage]
- The package works well right after install
[Quality assurance - maintenance]
- The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support
[Quality assurance - testing]
- The package doesn't run tests during the build. It's not a regression
compared to the current situation but it is something we should work toward
resolving.
The lack of tests has been reported to Debian,
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1003883
And on launchpad assigned to canonical-desktop-team,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/suitesparse-graphblas/+bug/1958152
- Similarly there is no autopkgtest, which is identic to the current
situation pre split. It's mentioned in the previously referenced reports.
- The lack of tests was discussed in the MIR team meeting and it was agreed
the issue wouldn't be a blocker for promotion since it's not a regression over
the current situation.
[Quality assurance - packaging]
- debian/watch is present and works
- lintian --pedantic only warns about lines > 512 chars in upstream sources
which doesn't sound like something we need to worry about
- This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages.
- This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies
- The package will be installed by default, but does not ask debconf questions
- Packaging and build is easy, link to d/rules
https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/suitesparse-graphblas/-/blob/master/debian/rules
[UI standards]
- Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation)
[Dependencies]
- No further depends or recommends dependencies that are not yet in main
[Standards compliance]
- This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy
[Maintenance/Owner]
- Owning Team will be desktop-packages
- Team is already subscribed to the package
- This does not use static builds
- This does not use vendored code
[Background information]
