Hello, (For those who prefer to read on Discourse -> https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/1-maintenance-report-week-5-2025/54301/1)
I was on my sixth +1 maintenance shift this week. I began with the php-defaults transition (PHP 8.4) and later moved to looking into the ruby-rack 3.0.8 transition. I avoided some other clusters - numpy (because ginngs is actively looking into it) and ocaml (because I am completely oblivious to that ecosystem). php-defaults ============ The cacti package was affected [1] by failures due to warnings related to the deprecation of E_STRICT in php8.4. The package needed a merge with Debian unstable and has now been done by athos. I also found another bug [2] causing cacti to fail on armhf. This armhf failure is not a regression and a later version of cacti has removed the erring code. [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cacti/+bug/2096724 [2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cacti/+bug/2096752 Package mediawiki [3] and friends are also affected by PHP deprecation warnings. I found this upstream issue [4] fixed [5] in version 1.43. I worked on backporting and extending that fix on the version Debian and Ubuntu are currently using (1.39). However, I later found version 1.43 imported [6] in Debian salsa - though it isnt’ uploaded yet. I can confirm that the problem does not happen with 1.43. I have deleted my Ubuntu MP.

I submitted an Ubuntu MP [8]. A fix has been released by Debian too. But, the Ubuntu package will need a merge with debian/sid. [7] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php-db/+bug/2096780 [8] https://code.launchpad.net/~pushkarnk/ubuntu/+source/php-db/+git/php-db/+merge/480181 I also fixed a failure [9] in php-fdomdocument due to php8.4 stdlib changes to DOMXPath. Thanks to tsimonq2 for uploading. I have forwarded the fix to Debian, but it fails to build in the current state of the archive. [9] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php-fdomdocument/+bug/2096868 ruby-rack ========= Changes in rack 3.X have affected quite a many ruby-* packages. I happened to investigate and fix a few of them. Most of these had existed Debian bug reports. I have also forwarded the fixes to Debian (wherever applicable). camping ------- Rack 3 factored out the session functionality into a new rack-session gem (which is now available as a package in Debian & Ubuntu). I submitted a patch [10] to add this new dependency in Debian. Version 2.3-1.1ubuntu1 in Ubuntu has a delta which is now redundant with 2.3-2 in debian/sid. I propose we do a sync after this issue is fixed in debian/sid. [10] https://salsa.debian.org/ruby-team/camping/-/merge_requests/4 ruby-warden ----------- Package ruby-warden also needs to be updated [11] to use the new ruby-rack-session dependency. [11] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ruby-warden/+bug/2096978 unicorn ------- This patch updates [12] the unicorn tests to adapt to the rack 3 lint mandate of having lowercase headers with HTTP/2 [12] https://code.launchpad.net/~pushkarnk/ubuntu/+source/unicorn/+git/unicorn/+merge/480359 ruby-sinatra ------------ WEBrick was removed as a bundled gem by Ruby 3 and sinatra only recommends puma as the web-server, with rackup having dropped the WEBrick dependency. The smoke-test now needs rackup and puma to run. Thanks tsimonq2 for sponsoring [13]. [13] https://code.launchpad.net/~pushkarnk/ubuntu/+source/ruby-sinatra/+git/ruby-sinatra/+merge/480424 ruby-sprockets & tdiary ----------------------- Package diary is FTBFS because we do not have a rack 3 adapted ruby-sprockets. The latter has an Ubuntu delta and I had to do a merge [14] with the latest release debian/sid. Consequently, tdiary [15] builds and the tests pass. Thanks to tsimonq2 for sponsoring. [14] https://code.launchpad.net/~pushkarnk/ubuntu/+source/ruby-sprockets/+git/ruby-sprockets/+merge/480436 [15] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tdiary/+bug/2097086 Miscellaneous ============= node-luxon ---------- Package nodejs 20.18.1+dfsg-1ubuntu2 [16] builds against ICU 76.1-1 which includes CLDR 46. The latter has a Date & Time delta for the kn (Kannada) and ta (Tamil) locales. As a result upstream tests of node-luxon are affected. This hasn’t affected Debian/unstable yet, where ICU 76.1 is currently in Debian experimental. I submitted an Ubuntu MP [17] and an upstream PR [18]. [16] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nodejs/20.18.1+dfsg-1ubuntu2 [17] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/node-luxon/+bug/2096900 [18] https://github.com/moment/luxon/pull/1680 And that was all for the past week. Thanks for reading!
