[Bug 2037392] Re: [MIR] libthrowable-perl (libemail-sender-perl dependency as libmail-dmarc-perl dependency)
** Description changed:
[MIR] libthrowable-perl (libemail-sender-perl dependency as libmail-
dmarc-perl dependency)
Package: libthrowable-perl
[Availability]
The package libthrowable-perl is already in Ubuntu universe.
The package libthrowable-perl build for the architectures it is designed to work on.
It currently builds and works for architectures: amd64 (all)
Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libthrowable-perl
[Rationale]
The package libthrowable-perl is required in Ubuntu main for libemail-sender-perl.
The package libthrowable-perl will not generally be useful for a large part of
our user base, but is important/helpful still because libemail-sender-perl requires it as a runtime dependecy (MIR bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libemail-sender-perl/+bug/2037389) and this, in turn, is required as runtime dependency by libmail-dmarc-perl
( libmail-dmarc-perl is in the MIR process here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libmail-dmarc-perl/+bug/2023971 )
The package libthrowable-perl is required in Ubuntu main no later than
through the same scheduled requested for the libemail-sender-perl and
libmail-dmarc-perl promotion, since libemail-sender-perl depends on it.
[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.
Package does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024).
Package does not expose any external endpoints.
Package 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 maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu and does
not have too many, long-term & critical, open bugs:
- Ubuntu (0) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libthrowable-perl/+bug
- Debian (0) https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=libthrowable-perl
- Upstream's bug tracker (1) https://github.com/rjbs/Throwable/issues
+ Upstream's repo last activity:
- last commit: in main, Jan 1, 2023
- Issues without answer: 1
- Updated issue/PR: Nov 27, 2021
- last fixed/closed/merged issue: Dec 12, 2021
- last merged PR: Mar 30, 2015
The package has not important/old open bugs on upstream.
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: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/644284013/buildlog_ubuntu-lunar-amd64.libthrowable-perl_1.001-1_BUILDING.txt.gz :
dh_auto_test
make -j4 test TEST_VERBOSE=1
make[1]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>'
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 "/usr/bin/perl" "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-MTest::Harness" "-e" "undef *Test::Harness::Switches; test_harness(1, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t
The package runs an autopkgtest (via autodep8 using 'Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-perl' in d/control file - https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libthrowable-perl/tree/debian/control#n6 -),
that runs essentialy the above build-time test suite. It is currently passing on
this list of architectures (amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x), except on i386: https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/l/libthrowable-perl
The package does have failing autopkgtests tests right now, but since
they always failed they are handled as "ignored failure", this is
because the test depends on pkg-perl-tools package that is not
build for i386 since focal.
[Quality assurance - packaging]
debian/watch is present and works.
debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field : Debian Perl Group
<pkg-perl-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (
https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libthrowable-
perl/tree/debian/control#n2)
This package does not yield massive lintian Warnings, Errors
- recent build log of the package https://launchpadlibrarian.net/646110119/buildlog_ubuntu-lunar-amd64.libthrowable-perl _2.218-1_BUILDING.txt.gz

This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages.
This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies.
The package will not be installed by default.
Packaging and build is easy, link to debian/rules:
https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libthrowable-
perl/tree/debian/rules
[UI standards]
Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation).
