Call for testing: the new apt stable release update for 21.10/22.04

Hi folks,

I uploaded new apt releases to 22.04 and 21.10 last week that should fix all those nasty cases where packages are uninstallable due to phased updates.

e.g. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1979244 and it’s duplicates.

The package made it to proposed today.

The new algorithm is quite a big change and I welcome any additional people installing the update from proposed and using it for the 7 day testing period to reduce the risk of regression.

If this version fails with dependency issues in a upgrade or dist-upgrade, leave a comment on the bug, here, or send me a DM.

That’s all!

10 days ?

Perhaps this was a bit silly indeed, but it did not add much more work, and the more testing the better?
