[Bug 2067654] Re: [MIR] libsub-prototype-perl

 

** Description changed:

- <To-be-replaced-with-filled-out-template>
+ [Availability]
+ The package libsub-prototype-perl is already in Ubuntu universe.
+ The package libsub-prototype-perl builds for the architectures it is designed to work on.
+ It currently builds and works for architectures: amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x, i386
+ Link to package: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libsub-prototype-perl
+ 
+ [Rationale]
+ The package libsub-prototype-perl is required in Ubuntu main as a Test and
+ Runtime dependency of libsub-override-perl, a package already in main. This
+ dependency was recently introduced in libsub-override-perl version 0.11-1
+ (currently in Oracular proposed).
+ 
+ There doesn't appear to be alternative packages with the same functionality
+ available in the archive.
+ 
+ The package libsub-prototype-perl is required in Ubuntu main no later than
+ August 15th 2024 (Feature Freeze for OO) so that new version of
+ libsub-override-perl can migrate to the release pocket before release.
+ 
+ [Security]
+ No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past
+ 
+ The package is a very simple Perl library/module. After inspecting the package,
+ I found:
+ 
+ - 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).
+ - Package does not expose any external endpoints
+ - Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software
+    (filters, scanners, plugins, UI skins, ...)
+ 
+ The package does not use security related algorithms, insecure or
+ otherwise.
+ 
+ [Quality assurance - function/usage]
+ The package works well right after install
+ 
+ <to-be-completed>
