[Bug 2130074] [NEW] Merge popularity-contest from Debian Unstable for resolute
Public bug reported:
Scheduled-For: ubuntu-25.11
Ubuntu: 1.78ubuntu1
Debian Unstable: 1.79
A new release of popularity-contest is available for merging from Debian
Unstable.
If it turns out this needs a sync rather than a merge, please change the
tagging from ['dcr-merge'] to ['dcr-sync'], and (optionally) update the
title as desired.
If this merge pulls in a new upstream version, also consider adding an
entry to the resolute Release Notes:
https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/resolute-raccoon-release-notes/
### New Debian Changes ###
popularity-contest (1.79) unstable; urgency=medium
[ Bill Allombert]
* Please note when reading stats that Trixie was released with 1.78.
* Update example server-side scripts to popcon.d.o version:
- popanal.py, popanal3.py: bump stable version to 1.78
[ Kirill Rekhov]
* popularity-contest.8: fix typo
* debian/copyright: convert to DEP 5

### Old Ubuntu Delta ###
popularity-contest (1.78ubuntu1) questing; urgency=medium
* Merge with Debian unstable (LP: #2112059). Remaining changes:
- d/control: disclose that Ubuntu popcon server is unmaintained
- d/control: drop Recommends on "default-mta | mail-transport-agent"
- d/postinst: remove Ubuntu references from SUBMITURLS/MAILTO/debconf
- d/cron.daily: filter & log Ubuntu popcon references in URL/MAILTO
- README: remove Ubuntu popcon server URL
- defaults.conf: disable Debian popcon server via SUBMITURLS/MAILTO
Dropped changes:
- d/config: set debconf participate question priority to "medium".
The delta was needed to prevent the question from being asked at
Ubuntu install time. This is not needed anymore: popularity-contest
has been removed from the standard seed in 2020.
- Fix mixed encoding of umlauts in debian/changelog. Rationale: the
mixed-encoding was introduced in a past revision of the Ubuntu delta;
we are simply not carrying that problem over in the merge.
- Unjustified rewrap in the Croatian debconf translations (d/po/hr.po),
not accounted for in past d/changelog entries, and likely introduced
by mistake.
