** Description changed: >> juju-mongodb << Availability ------------ In universe, available on all required architectures (x86, armhf, arm64, ppc64el). Rationale --------- MongoDB is a dependency for operating a Juju deployed Ubuntu environment. Security -------- MongoDB has had some CVE's in the past, related to the use of the V8 and Spidermonkey Javascript engine in the Mongo Shell; however juju-mongodb builds without support for Javascript scripting, avoiding the historic CVE's (which where fixed upstream anyway). Quality assurance ----------------- Package installs cleanly, package build process runs upstream smoke tests (minus jstests due to disabling javascript support). Tests pass on all architectures. Dependencies ------------ All in main already Standards compliance -------------------- OK (well is scons but we won't hold that against it) Maintenance ----------- Upstream MongoDB run stable releases with point updates; its intended that a MRE is applied for this package so point releases can be pushed as SRU's. Its also possible that we might need to bump a major version (2.4.x -> 2.6.x); as this package is specific to Juju, we can constrain the impact and regression testing to Juju only. Background information ---------------------- Why a separate package? it was agreed at the last vUDS that having a separate package allows us to limit a) use of v8 (disabled) which was a security concern and b) allows us to potentially update at a later date if need be only impacting juju itself. >> juju-core << Availability ------------ In universe, not yet available on arm64 or ppc64el. Rationale --------- Juju is the recommended service orchestration tool for Ubuntu; as such it really needs to be a core part of Ubuntu. Security -------- No security history, but it was agreed that a security review would be undertaken as part of the MIR process. Quality assurance ----------------- No tests are run as part of the package build process; however upstream do run these tests for all target series (12.04 -> 14.04) prior to release so the overall quality of the codebase it pretty good. The package has some basic DEP-8 tests that bootstrap a local Juju environment to ensure everything hangs together OK. Dependencies ------------ juju-mongodb (see above) golang or gccgo TBC Currently all required go dependencies are snapshotted at specific upstream commits and bundled with Juju. Standards compliance -------------------- OK Maintenance ----------- Upstream Juju team intend to manage stable point releases against the version shipped in 14.04. Ubuntu Server team will own the package in distro. Background information ---------------------- Some decisions still need to be made, mainly around toolchain. Specifically the aim is to support a single Go toolchain in Ubuntu main for all architectures; golang-go does not support arm64 or ppc64el yet, whereas the gccgo implementation does. Required changes to support gccgo have been upstreamed into the Juju codebase. + + Its also worth noting that the package and binaries in Ubuntu are used + for: + + client tool (juju) + juju agent (jujud) - but only for local provider and where --upload-tools is used + + Upstream released jujud binaries are/will be distributed officially via + simplestreams using a documented build process (details TBC).
