Public bug reported:

[Availability]
The package libimobiledevice-glue is already in Ubuntu universe.
The package libimobiledevice-glue build 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/libimobiledevice-glue

[Rationale]
- The package libimobiledevice-glue is required in Ubuntu main for component 
matching in Oracular.
- The package libimobiledevice-glue will not generally be useful for a large 
part of
  our user base, but is important/helpful still because it's a component 
mismatch for Oracular.
- The package libimobiledevice-glue is a new runtime dependency of package 
libimobiledevice that
we already support
- There is no other/better way to solve this that is already in main or
  should go universe->main instead of this.
- The binary package libimobiledevice-glue-1.0-0 needs to be in main to achieve
  run-time dependency for libimobiledevice which is in main.

- It would be great and useful to community/processes to have the
  package libimobiledevice-glue in Ubuntu main, but there is no definitive 
deadline.

[Security]
- Had 14 security issues in the past
  + https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2017/02/02/4
  + https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=libimobiledevice
- The links therein to their bug tracker show they have been handled.

- No `suid` or `sgid` binaries
- No executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
- Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs
TODO: - Security has been kept in mind and common isolation/risk-mitigation
TODO:   patterns are in place utilizing the following features:
TODO:   TBD (add details and links/examples about things like dropping
TODO:   permissions, using temporary environments, restricted users/groups,
TODO:   seccomp, systemd isolation features, apparmor, ...)
- Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024).
- Package does not expose any external endpoints
TODO: - Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software
TODO:   (filters, scanners, plugins, UI skins, ...)

[Quality assurance - function/usage]
- The package works well right after install

[Quality assurance - maintenance]
- The package is maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu/Upstream and does
  not have too many, long-term & critical, open bugs
- Ubuntu
  + https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libimobiledevice-glue/+bug
  + https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libimobiledevice/+bug
- Debian
  + https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=libimobiledevice-glue
  + https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=libimobiledevice
- Upstream's bug tracker, e.g., GitHub Issues: 
https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libimobiledevice/issues
- The package does deal with exotic hardware (namely iOS devices), it is 
present at TBD
  to be able to test, fix and verify bugs

[Quality assurance - testing]
- The package does not run a test at build time because upstream does not have
  a set of tests for this package (same with libimobile-device which already is
  in main).

TODO - The package runs an autopkgtest, and is currently passing on
  x86 x64 s390x aarch32 aarch64 risc64 ppc64el, link to test logs TBD

- The package does have not failing autopkgtests right now

[Quality assurance - packaging]
- debian/watch is present and works
- debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field

- This package does not yield massive lintian Warnings, Errors
- Please link to a recent build log of the package 
https://launchpad.net/~nteodosio/+archive/ubuntu/rebuilds/+sourcepub/16286820/+listing-archive-extra
- Lintian overrides are not present

- This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages.
- This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies

- The package will not be installed by default

- Packaging and build is easy, link to debian/rules
https://salsa.debian.org/imobiledevice-team/libimobiledevice-
glue/-/blob/master/debian/rules?ref_type=heads

[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]
- The owning team will be Ubuntu Desktop (~desktop-packages) and I have their 
acknowledgement for that commitment
- The future owning team is not yet subscribed, but will subscribe to
  the package before promotion

- This does not use static builds

- This does not use vendored code

- This package is not rust based

- The package has been built within the last 3 months in the archive
