Originally I was going to make the argument that three replacements for dmraid are not on-disk compatible, and therefore the Debian removal rationale is disingenuous for anyone who is upgrading a system that relies on this.
However, the fact that this has already been broken for two LTS cycles without any Ubuntu developers noticing and having no capacity to test, and we've effectively had only one user bug report about it, gives lie to the idea that we can let this coast without upstream support and without impact to our users. So I am +1 now for removal; it's better to have a clean drop. We should also add an ubuntu-release-upgrade quirk to block users from upgrading to a release that will not support their disk. Whether that is added to the upgrader going back to upgrades to jammy, or whether we SRU the udev fix to jammy and noble and only block upgrades to oracular and later, I have no opinion. ** Changed in: dmraid (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged ** Also affects: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2073677 Title: Remove dmraid from oracular?
