debian is in deep freeze for the upcoming stretch release. still, I haven't dived into fixing "general" release-critical bugs yet; so far I mostly kept to working on bugs in the debian perl group:
#834912– src:libfile-tee-perl: "libfile-tee-perl: FTBFS randomly (Failed 1/2 test programs)"
add patch from ntyni (pkg-perl)#845167– src:lemonldap-ng: "lemonldap-ng: FTBFS randomly (failing tests)"
upload package prepared by xavier with disabled tests (pkg-perl)#849362– libstring-diff-perl: "libstring-diff-perl: FTBFS: test failures with new libyaml-perl"
add patch from ntyni (pkg-perl)#851033– src:jabref: "jabref: FTBFS: Could not find org.postgresql:postgresql:9.4.1210."
update maven.rules#851347– libjson-validator-perl: "libjson-validator-perl: uses deprecated Mojo::Util::slurp, makes libswagger2-perl FTBFS"
upload new upstream release (pkg-perl)#852853– src:libwww-curl-perl: "libwww-curl-perl: FTBFS (Cannot find curl.h)"
add patch for multiarch curl (pkg-perl)#852879– src:license-reconcile: "license-reconcile: FTBFS: dh_auto_test: perl Build test --verbose 1 returned exit code 255"
update tests (pkg-perl)#852889– src:liblatex-driver-perl: "liblatex-driver-perl: FTBFS: Test failures"
add missing build dependency (pkg-perl)#854859– lemonldap-ng-doc: "lemonldap-ng-doc: unhandled symlink to directory conversion: /usr/share/doc/lemonldap-ng-doc/pages/documentation/current"
help with dpkg-maintscript-helper, upload on xavier's behalf (pkg-perl)
thanks to the release team for pro-actively unblocking the packages with fixes which were uploaded after the begin of the freeze!
