** Description changed:

  Package: libregexp-common-perl
  
  [Availability]
  The package libregexp-common-perl is already in Ubuntu universe.
  The package libregexp-common-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/libregexp-common-perl
  
  [Rationale]
  The package libregexp-common-perl is required in Ubuntu main for libmail-dmarc-perl.
  The package libregexp-common-perl will not generally be useful for a large part of
  our user base, but is important/helpful still because it 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 libregexp-common-perl is required in Ubuntu main no later
  than through the same scheduled requested for the  libmail-dmarc-perl
  promotion, since libmail-dmarc-perl depends on it.

  The package has important/old open bugs on upstream , some of them are:
  - /^$RE{URI}$/ takes exponential time depending on the position of an invalid percent-encoding: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=132726
  - Examples in pod do not work(?) Regexp::Common : https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=129566
  - IPv6 regexp fails to match address fd5d:5d93:4007:5a::aa:bb:80 : IPv6 regexp fails to match address fd5d:5d93:4007:5a::aa:bb:80
  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://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libregexp-common-perl/2017060201-3/+build/24612542/+files/buildlog_ubuntu-lunar-amd64.libregexp-common-perl_2017060201-3_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 t/*/*.t

+ 
  The package runs an autopkgtest (via autodep8 using 'Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-perl' in d/control file - https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libregexp-common-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/libregexp-common-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-autopkgtest package that is not
  build for i386 since focal.
  
  [Quality assurance - packaging]
  debian/watch is present and works.
