Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Please unblock package puppetdb

[ Reason ]
PuppetDB was removed from testing in March due to expired x509
certificates among the upstream unit test fixtures. These issues were
fixed with the latest upload in unstable, but it missed the soft freeze
cutoff by a few days.

[ Impact ]
Since upstream stopped providing PuppetDB packages for Debian, these
packagages have increased significance for the Puppet community. Also,
DSA is a user of the PuppetDB package, as far as I know.

[ Tests ]
The package executes the full suite of unit tests at build time, and autopkgtests are also implemented.

[ Risks ]
The inclusion of PuppetDB in trixie doesn't carry any risks.

[ Checklist ]
[x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[ ] attach debdiff against the package in testing
(the package is not yet in testing)

[ Other info ]
Knowing that we missed the soft freeze deadline for Debian 13, this is a
humble request for a freeze exception.

puppetdb is in bookworm, so based on that we can grant an exception.
However, puppetdb also has failing autopkgtests on armel and riscv64.
Please investigate/fix them and remove the moreinfo tag once the issues
are resolved.

Cheers

Hello,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Autopkgtests for these architectures have never worked in the past. I
believe the package previously benefitted from an unblock related to
this particular issue.

The autopkgtests fail because of the default 300s systemd unit startup
timeout which is tripped by the slow JVM startup time on those test
platforms.

I could upload a modified package which only enables autopkgtests for
amd64 and arm64, like I did before with the puppetserver package.

What do you think?
