Review for Source Package: libemail-mime-contenttype-perl

[Summary]
MIR team ACK
This does not need a security review
List of specific binary packages to be promoted to main: libemail-mime-contenttype-perl
Specific binary packages built, but NOT to be promoted to main: <None>

Not really any TODOs, setting this to Incomplete until libtext-unidecode-perl makes it
to main.

Required TODOs:
#0 The package should get a team bug subscriber before being promoted
#1 depends on libtext-unidecode-perl
   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libtext-unidecode-perl/+bug/2031109

[Duplication]
There is no other package in main providing the same functionality.
This package is required in main as an indirect dependency of libmail-dmarc-perl.

[Dependencies]
OK:
- no -dev/-debug/-doc packages that need exclusion
- No dependencies in main that are only superficially tested requiring
   more tests now.

Problems:
- This depends on libtext-unidecode-perl which is under MIR process:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libtext-unidecode-perl/+bug/2031109

[Embedded sources and static linking]
OK:
- no embedded source present
- no static linking
- does not have unexpected Built-Using entries
- not a go package, no extra constraints to consider in that regard
- not a rust package, no extra constraints to consider in that regard
- Does not include vendored code

Problems: None

[Security]
OK:
- history of CVEs does not look concerning
- does not run a daemon as root
- does not use webkit1,2
- does not use lib*v8 directly
- does not parse data formats (files [images, video, audio,
  xml, json, asn.1], network packets, structures, ...) from
  an untrusted source.
- does not expose any external endpoint (port/socket/... or similar)
- does not process arbitrary web content
- does not use centralized online accounts
- does not integrate arbitrary javascript into the desktop
- does not deal with system authentication (eg, pam), etc)
- does not deal with security attestation (secure boot, tpm, signatures)
- does not deal with cryptography (en-/decryption, certificates, signing, ...)

Problems: None

[Common blockers]
OK:
- does not FTBFS currently
- does have a test suite that runs at build time
  - test suite fails will fail the build upon error.
- does have a non-trivial test suite that runs as autopkgtest
- This does not need special HW for build or test
- no new python2 dependency

 Problems: None

[Packaging red flags]
OK:
- Ubuntu does not carry a delta
- symbols tracking not applicable for this kind of code.
- debian/watch is present and looks ok (if needed, e.g. non-native)
- Upstream update history is good
- Debian/Ubuntu update history follows upstream
- the current release is packaged
- promoting this does not seem to cause issues for MOTUs that so far
  maintained the package
- no massive Lintian warnings
- debian/rules is rather clean
- It is not on the lto-disabled list

Problems: None

[Upstream red flags]
OK:
 no Errors/warnings during the build
- no incautious use of malloc/sprintf (the language has no direct MM)
 - no use of sudo, gksu, pkexec, or LD_LIBRARY_PATH (usage is OK inside
   tests)
- no use of user nobody
- no use of setuid / setgid
- no important open bugs (crashers, etc) in Debian or Ubuntu
- no dependency on webkit, qtwebkit, seed or libgoa-*
- not part of the UI for extra checks
- no translation present, but none needed for this case (user visible)?

Problems: None
