[Bug 1077484] Re: [MIR] libsemanage (shadow's rdep to continue SELinux support in shadow)

[Jamie Strandboge]

ustr MIR (needed by libsemanage):
Review in bug:
 * Does it FTBFS currently? builds fine with only main
 * Does it have a test suite? yes and it is enabled in the build
 * Does Ubuntu carry a delta? no
 * It has a symbols file
 * Does it have a bug subscriber in Ubuntu? no
 * Does it have a watch file? yes
 * Is its update history slow or sporadic? yes. Last upstream update was 4.5 years ago
 * Is the current release packaged? yes
 * Will entering main make it harder for the people currently keeping it up to date? no
 * Lintian warnings no
 * Is debian/rules a mess? no, it's clean
 * Errors/warnings during the build: yes, but they are false positives or harmless
 * Incautious use of malloc/sprintf: no, it is highly optimized and not easy to get into, but also very defensively programmed
 * Uses of sudo or LD_LIBRARY_PATH: no
 * Important bugs (crashers, etc) in Debian or Ubuntu: no
 * Does the package have a CVE history? no
 * Do not need a security audit at this time

ustr has some compiler warnings but they turned out to not be a problem
after some review. A bug subscriber would be nice. The fact that
upstream hasn't created any new releases gives me some pause, but it is
also an indication that ustr is feature complete and works well. ACK

Title:
  [MIR] libsemanage (shadow's rdep to continue SELinux support in
  shadow)

Status in “libsemanage” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in “shadow” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “ustr” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Shadow package now requires libsemanage to compile with SELinux support.
  Currently shadow is compiled with SELinux support.
  To continue compiling shadow with SELinux support libsemanage1 libsemanage-dev and libsemanage-common should be promoted into main.
  If not, SELinux support can be dropped from the shadow package.

  Previously, sssd tried to pull libsemanage into main,

  (There is shadow package in raring-proposed in dep-wait state on
  libsemanage)
