[Bug 1965758] Re: [BPO] debhelper/13.6ubuntu1 from jammy to bionic, focal

[Dave Jones]

Hmm, good point. This change ought to be back-ported and the same set of
packages rebuilt otherwise an LTS->LTS upgrade risks stopping vital
services like dbus too.

Assigning myself to have a look at this; looks like bionic and focal are
only one minor version behind so a back-port shouldn't be hugely
invasive.

Title:
  [BPO] debhelper/13.6ubuntu1 from jammy to bionic, focal

Status in debhelper package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Please backport debhelper (>= 13.6ubuntu1) to Bionic and Focal.
  Currently we have

   debhelper | 13.5.2ubuntu1~bpo18.04.1    | bionic-backports | source, all
   debhelper | 13.5.2ubuntu1~bpo20.04.1    | focal-backports  | source, all

  Those versions are affected by LP: #1959054, which is fixed in
  13.6ubuntu1. Especially bad about that bug is that it requires
  rebuilding packages which were built against the buggy debhelper to
  update their maintainer scripts.

  I'm not preparing the upload myself as [1] specifies debhelper is
  handled by the Backports team.
