+1 Maintenance report from April 13 to April 17

This shift has primarily focused on addressing the rust-coreutils 0.8.0 migration
and build issues, as it affected many other packages. Additionally firefighting due to the freeze and coming release.

Work-needed items

There is nothing signficant that can be done as of the final freeze,
however these are some things that can be looked at post-freeze.

  • acl: 2.3.2-2
    proposed-migration is blocked due to FTBFS related to a possible rust-coreutils
    bug. Investigated, but too late to introduce any fixes.
  • rustc-1.93: 1.93.1+dfsg-0ubuntu6
    proposed-migration is blocked due to missing riscv64 builds. Was previously blocked due to tmpfail autopkgtests, but passed after retrigger.
  • rustc-1.91: 1.91.1+dfsg-0ubuntu3
    proposed migration is blocked due to missing riscv64 builds. Was previously blocked
    due to tmpfail autopkgtests, but seems to be passing after retrigger.
    Tests are still running on s390x at time of writing.

Full logs

PM:rust-coreutils:

rust-coreutils was stuck in -proposed due to a SIGPIPE error causing regressions in the autopkgtests for other packages. This took some time to troubleshoot, but was ultimately fixed by incorporating a patch to the tee utility from upstream.

Afterwards, the fixed version suffered from FTBFS due to a bug related to incomplete fallback localization. I made a patch and forwarded it to upstream. The latest version has now migrated successfully to release.
