[Bug 2080023] Re: [SRU] Enable s390x and ppc64el for .NET 8 on Jammy

[Timo Aaltonen]

Hello Mateus, or anyone else affected,

Accepted dotnet8 into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dotnet8/8.0.108-8.0.8-0ubuntu1~22.04.2
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: dotnet8 (Ubuntu Jammy)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-jammy

Title:
  [SRU] Enable s390x and ppc64el for .NET 8 on Jammy

Status in dotnet8 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in dotnet8 source package in Jammy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Upload available in PPA: https://launchpad.net/~dotnet-
  bootstrap/+archive/ubuntu/dotnet8.0.108-jammy-stage2

  [ Impact ]

   * This SRU aims to enable the s390x and ppc64el architectures on .NET 8
     targeting Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy Jellyfish). These architectures have
     already been enabled for .NET 8 on Oracular Oriole and Noble Numbat.

   * This is part of the .NET team's roadmap for the Oracular Oriole
  cycle.

   * Per the changelog of the package in the PPA, the changes introduced in
     this upload are only related to the enablement of s390x and ppc64el.

  [ Test Plan ]

   * Run the steps outlined in the .NET SRU Test Plan document [1] on an s390x
     and ppc64el machine.

  [ Where problems could occur ]

   * s390x and ppc64el have already been enabled for .NET 8 on Oracular and
     Noble.

   * The patches introduced to fix various FTBFS and autopkgtest failures on
     ppc64el are only modifying parameters in unit test projects within the
     .NET code-base as well as the autopkgtest test runner code-base and its
     related libraries. These should not impact "shippable" products that land
     in the final binary packages.

   * If a problem occurs, it would be limited to .NET on s390x and ppc64el and
     will show up when using the product with normal day-to-day operations,
     which the test plan should be able to reproduce.

  [ Other Info ]

   * The s390x and ppc64el builds will require a bootstrap once they hit
      -proposed. The bootstrap packages have been prepared and are available
     in PPAs [2][3]. They will be uploaded to the Ubuntu Bootstrap PPA by an
     Archive Admin once we're ready to bootstrap.

   * When this upload hits -proposed, the s390x and ppc64el builds will stay
     in dependency wait status until the bootstrap packages are uploaded and
     the Launchpad team triggers the bootstrap. The .NET team
     (Toolchains/Foundations) will drive the coordination of these tasks once
     we're there.
