• Bug#1104273: rust-ureq: autopkgtests fail on all archs

    Quoting Chris Hofstaedtler (2025-05-04 14:06:37)
    thanks for your time at MiniDebConf.

    Likewise. Have you left by now, or do we have a chance of bumbing into
    each other later tonight or at breakfast tomorrow as well?

    I re-checked, and rust-ureq has a _lot_ of reverse-dependencies, as
    can be seen here: https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=librust-ureq&literal=1

    That search lists these: ruff rust-cookie rust-rustls-native-certs python-maturin rust-debian-control

    Of those, rust-cookie and rust-rustls-native-certs only declare breaks, python-maturin: only mentions in a comment comment and
    rust-debian-control only mentions in testdata (together with a specific
    version of a library python no longer matching version in testing or
    untable, so unlikely to be testdata requiring avainable packages).

    This leaves only ruff, which uses rust-ureq only in fringe test, as
    reported in bug#1098854.

    I am not convinced that fixing this bug is highly important for the
    release of Debian: Upstream has moved on to a newer major version, and
    the only thing blocking an upgrade is this fringe use (which I suspect
    is not even run due to rust-ureq being about internet activity which is
    blokced on autobuilders).

    I'll be here until tomorrow evening :-)

    Right. Thanks for double checking the list and filing #1098854.

    release of Debian: Upstream has moved on to a newer major version, and

    Agreed.

    I think once ruff stops Build-Depending on it, we can let rust-ureq
    decay, at least in Debian.

    Best,
    Chris
