I could change that into something like 1-2 GB. One might think, this is still "relatively small" these days, but it's always enough for the installer, so I think that would be ok. > > These values are very low by today standards. > Also, mentions of ext3 are outdated, I doubt anybody still uses it for > new installations.

Bug#837060: debootstrap: Do not install packages of Priority:required for buildd variant
Hi, Quoting Luca Boccassi (2023-10-18 19:17:40) > We can do an upload, but note that it won't have any effect on package > builds, given the buildds use stable/oldstable actually we forgot something here. The upload *does* have an effect on buildds right now even before Trixie gets released because riscv buildds (in contrast to the others) do run debootstrap from unstable, resulting in this recent build failure of src:siridb-server: https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=siridb-server&arch=riscv64&ver=2.0.48-1%2Bb1&stamp=1698686860&raw=0 This was reported already by Santiago as #1027381 last year and Paul Gevers quickly did another upload of src:siridb-server fixing this. So if riscv keeps being part of the release arches for trixie, then the FTBFS bugs reported by Santiago will have real effects on buildds building packages for riscv going forward. So unless that change gets reverted in debootstrap, this class of bugs will likely go away by itself before trixie gets released. Thanks! cheers, josch signature.asc Description: signature

So unless that change gets reverted in debootstrap, this class of bugs will likely go away by itself before trixie gets released. So, if I understood correctly, if a package has this bug, and it's already reported, and the maintainer does a new upload but they forget to fix the bug, then the package will FTBFS on riscv, and as a result, the package will not propagate to testing. This is actually a good thing, it means the bugs are "factually RC". So, while I personally don't see a special hurry to raise the severities of the currently reported bugs, maybe it makes sense that we start to report *new* bugs like this one as serious. Thanks.

Otherwise: yes. > This is actually a good thing, it means the bugs are "factually RC". I agree. > So, while I personally don't see a special hurry to raise the severities of > the currently reported bugs, maybe it makes sense that we start to report > *new* bugs like this one as serious. I think that would make sense, given that this currently blocks package migration to testing due to factual build failures on riscv buildds. In #debian-release, aurel32 asked about my opinion on whether those bugs should now be raised to RC and I agreed that they should. Thanks! cheers, josch signature.asc Description: signature
Re: Bug#1055016: override: tasksel-data:admin/optional
FTP Team, On Sun Oct 29, 2023, I reported: > However, tasksel is still installed by default because of the following: > $ apt-cache show tasksel-data | grep -E '^(Package|Depends|Priority)' > Package: tasksel-data > Depends: tasksel (= 3.73) > Priority: important > Please change tasksel-data from: > admin/important > to: > admin/optional Some more dependencies: Package: tasksel-data Depends: tasksel (= 3.73) Recommends: laptop-detect Priority: important Package: laptop-detect Recommends: dmidecode Priority: optional Package: dmidecode Depends: libc6 (>= 2.34) Priority: important So a side effect of not installing tasksel and tasksel-data by default is that laptop-detect would not be installed either. It's not clear to me why dmidecode is Priority: important, but that's a discussion for another day. Thank you! Daniel Lewart Urbana, Illinois
