[Bug 2129695] Re: Please remove awesome from resolute but not resolute-proposed

 

I'm adding a glib2.0 task so that this shows more easily on the excuses
page for people wondering why glib2.0 isn't able to migrate.

Title:
  Please remove awesome from resolute but not resolute-proposed

Status in awesome package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in glib2.0 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  glib2.0 2.86.0-3 sets Breaks: awesome (<< 4.3-8~) because awesome
  needs changes to work with glib 2.86. See
  https://bugs.debian.org/1115591

  This means that britney won't migrate glib2.0 out of resolute-proposed
  as long as awesome << 4.3.8~ is in resolute.

  awesome currently fails to build with what looks like an obscure issue
  since our lua packages are basically in sync with Debian and I haven't
  seen any other lua package fail to build at this point.

  Debian would prefer to keep the Breaks since it is technically correct
  and I would prefer to not add a diff with Debian for this issue.

  Therefore, my recommendation is that we remove awesome from resolute,
  but leave it in resolute-proposed. Once awesome's build is fixed, it
  can migrate back to resolute.

  Build log excerpt
