[Bug 1951065] Re: [MIR] libio-prompt-tiny-perl

 

** Description changed:

- TBD
+ [Availability]
+ The package libio-prompt-tiny-perl is already in Ubuntu universe.
+ The package libio-prompt-tiny-perl builds for the architectures it is designed to work on.
+ It currently builds and works for architectures: all
+ Link to package [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libio-prompt-tiny-perl|libio-prompt-tiny-perl]]
+ 
+ [Rationale]
+ - The package libio-prompt-tiny-perl is required in Ubuntu main for lintian
+ - The package libio-prompt-tiny-perl will not generally be useful for a large part of
+   our user base, but is important/helpful still because lintian is an essential part
+   of the packaging toolkit
+ - The package libio-prompt-tiny-perl is a new runtime dependency of package <TBD> that
+   we already support
+ 
+ [Security]
+ - No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past
+ 
+ - no `suid` or `sgid` binaries
+ - no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
+ - Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs
+ - Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024)
+ - Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software
+   (filters, scanners, plugins, UI skins, ...)
+ 
+ [Quality assurance - function/usage]
+ - The package works well right after install
+ 
+ [Quality assurance - maintenance]
+ - The package is well maintained in Debian/Ubuntu, as part of the Debian Perl team. It does not have *any* bug open, either in Debian nor in Ubuntu. Upstream is fairly inactive, with last release in 2015
+   - Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libio-prompt-tiny-perl/+bug
+   - Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=libio-prompt-tiny-perl
+ - The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support
+ 
+ [Quality assurance - testing]
+ - The package runs a test suite on build time, if it fails
+   it makes the build fail, link to build log https://launchpadlibrarian.net/536120852/buildlog_ubuntu-impish-amd64.libio-interactive-perl_1.023-1_BUILDING.txt.gz
+   It should be noted that since by essence the code deals with interactive terminals, a fair share of the tests are skipped during the builds.
+ 
+ - The package runs the autodep8-perl autopkgtests, which includes running the
+   unit test suite, and is currently passing on all architectures:
+   https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/libi/libio-prompt-tiny-perl
+ 
+ [Quality assurance - packaging]
+ - debian/watch is present and works
+ - This package does not yield massive lintian Warnings, Errors, except for outdated standards
+   and Vcs-* fields (fixed in Salsa but not uploaded)
+ - Link to the Debian lintian report: https://lintian.debian.org/sources/libio-prompt-tiny-perl
+ - Lintian overrides are not present
+ - This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages.
+ - The package will not be installed by default
+ - Packaging and build is easy, link to d/rules https://sources.debian.org/src/libio-prompt-tiny-perl/0.003-1/debian/rules/
+ 
+ [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]
+ - Owning Team will be Foundations
+ - Team is not yet, but will subscribe to the package before promotion
+ - This does not use static builds
+ - This does not use vendored code
+ 
+ [Background information]
+ The Package description explains the package well!
+ Upstream Name is David Golden <dagolden@xxxxxxxx>
+ Upstream project: https://github.com/dagolden/IO-Prompt-Tiny
