Foundations Team Updates - Thursday 2024/02/15

Deb822:

  • Finished the deb822 transition for livecd-rootfs to the point where it produces working desktop and cloud images and uploaded it
  • Some follow up work in ubuntu-release-upgrader to make it work with the source merging in python-apt 2.7.5
  • Reviewed cloud-init PR#4770 aligning it with livecd-rootfs

APT:

1024-bit RSA key deprecation:

  • Setup a meeting to discuss the Launchpad specification and push it to completion
  • Merged gnupg 2.4 from Debian experimental, to which we will be applying the new upstream stable branch commit that adds an --assert-pubkey_algo argument (currently that fails the test suite at build time though, so is disabled).

Misc Distro:

  • [proposed-migration] Merged unattended-upgrades and fixed remaining regressions for 3.12
