[Bug 1850851] Re: [SRU] ubuntu-release-upgrader no longer produces tarballs

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-release-upgrader - 1:19.10.15.2

---------------
ubuntu-release-upgrader (1:19.10.15.2) eoan; urgency=medium

  * Fix binary and binary-indep targets to work as intended (LP:
#1850851)

ubuntu-release-upgrader (1:19.10.15.1) eoan; urgency=medium

  * do-release-upgrade: also check for linux-image- in reboot-required.pkgs,
    refusing upgrading before a reboot is performed. (LP: #1844805)

ubuntu-release-upgrader (1:19.10.15) eoan; urgency=medium

  * Don't check for validity of /usr/bin/python symlink because this is no
    longer relevant to the upgrades (and the printed error message was
    inaccurate).  LP: #1825655.
  * Clean up remaining references to /usr/bin/python (tests and utilities)
    in the source.

ubuntu-release-upgrader (1:19.10.14) eoan; urgency=medium

  * DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeCache.py: New python3-apt bindings no longer provide
    Package.section, so switch to using Package.{candidate,installed}.section
    whenever applicable. This fixes broken partial upgrades. (LP: #1841675)

ubuntu-release-upgrader (1:19.10.13) eoan; urgency=medium

  [ Brian Murray ]
  * DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeQuirks.py: do not include gnome-system-monitor in
    the deb to snap transition anymore. (LP: #1845485)
  * DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeQuirks.py: improve wording regarding not being able
    to upgrade from a system with an apt architecture of i386.

  [ Łukasz 'sil2100' Zemczak ]
  * DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeQuirks.py: slightly refactor code to fix related
    unit tests.

Title:
  [SRU] ubuntu-release-upgrader no longer produces tarballs

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Eoan:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [ SRU Justification ]
  ubuntu-release-upgrades was unintentionally relying on a debhelper bug/misfeature where mixing and matching dh(1) and explicit make targets would lead "dh binary" to call a binary-indep target in debian/rules, despite no dependency being declared.  This dh(1) misfeature went away when arch/indep handling was reworked in debhelper 12.5, and ubuntu-release-upgrader's binary-indep target (which generated the release-upgrader tarball) hasn't been called since.

  [ Test Case ]
  1) Make sure the release-upgrader tarball is built, included in .changes, and published to the archive.
  2) debdiff .deb binaries from this upload and the last to ensure nothing else has gone amiss.

  [ Regression Potential ]
  Fairly low.  This is just fixing some broken assumptions about makefiles and debhelper to deterministically return us to the situation we were arriving at by accident before.

  [ Other Info ]
  In doing this, and testing interaction between arch and indep targets and dh(1) itself, I noted that there were a few more small fixes to be made which are no-ops in the current package, but are ticking time-bombs if the package ever grows a non-arch-all package, so I'm including those fixes too.
