+1 Maintenance shadowing report from Dec 1 to Dec 5, 2025

Thanks to @mateus-morais’s guidance I got the chance to fix an FTBFS, fix some migration issues, and perform some merges.

Work-needed items

  • sunpy: Currently, sunpy can’t migrate due to missing autopkgtest dependencies. I tried running the autopkgtests with &all-proposed=1, but that didn’t help.

Sponsorship needed

Full logs

sunpy

A cursory glance at the failing autopkgtests suggest missing dependencies, even when run with &all-proposed=1.

ktls-utils

ktls-utils was unable to migrate. I found in LP: #2133822 that a misconfigured config path was causing autopkgtests to fail. I fixed and tested the package, then forwarded my patch to Debian. The maintainer responded promptly and the issue is now fixed. ktls-utils autosync is complete and it has migrated successfully!

ruby-scientist

This was my second migration failure investigation, recorded in LP: #2133826. I found that autopkgtests were failing because they were trying to use a bundled rake instead of the system version. I forwarded the patch to Debian and my Launchpad MP is still open for review and sponsorship.

renpy

This was the FTBFS I fixed, tracked in LP: #2134079. The program couldn’t compile because it was trying to coerce a Python string to a byte string. I patched the program to use a byte string instead and forwarded my patch to Debian. I’ve included the debdiff for my fix underneath the original bug report. It is open for review and sponsorship.

boxer

A basic merge from Debian. I created LP: #2134170 to track the merge. My MP is ready for sponsorship and upload.

libzen

Another basic merge from Debian. I created LP: #2134224 to track merge progress. I’m currently waiting for the PPA build and I will submit an MP shortly.

justbuild

Another basic merge from Debian. I created LP: #2134235 to track progress. I expect the MP for this to be ready shortly as well.
