Yeah, we'll be happy to sync if/when it lands (we have no delta)

Title:
[MIR] libpisp
Status in libpisp package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Availability]
The package libpisp is already in the Ubuntu universe.
The package libpisp builds for the architectures it is designed to work on.
It currently builds and works for architectures: arm64, armhf
Link to package: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpisp
[Rationale]
- The package libpisp is required in Ubuntu main for enabling libcamera
- The package libpisp is a new runtime dependency of the package libcamera that
we already support
- The binary package libpisp needs to be in main to have camera support for
Raspberry Pi 5 and above.
- The package libpisp is required in Ubuntu main no later than plucky
release, as this is blocking migration for libcamera and camera
support for the Raspberry Pi is a high priority on the plucky roadmap.
[Security]
- No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past
- no `suid` or `sgid` binaries
- no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
- Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs
- Package does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024).
- Package does not expose any external endpoints
- Package does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software
(filters, scanners, plugins, UI skins, ...)
[Quality assurance - function/usage]
- The package works well right after install
[Quality assurance - maintenance]
- The package is maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu/Upstream and does
not have too many long-term & critical open bugs
- Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpisp/+bug
- GitHub https://github.com/raspberrypi/libpisp
- The package has no critical open bugs aside from a request for
usage examples: https://github.com/raspberrypi/libpisp/issues
- The package does deal with exotic hardware; such hardware is available
to the team for debugging, testing, verification and development via:
- an engineering sample in engineers home on Foundations - Architectures
team, manager Matthieu Clemenceau
[Quality assurance - testing]
- The package does not run a test at build time.
- The package does not run an autopkgtest because it requires special
hardware (Raspberry Pi 5 and camera modules for libpisp1 and libpisp-dev)
- The package can not be well tested at build or autopkgtest time
because it requires special hardware like Raspberry Pi 5 and a
camera module. To make up for that:
- We have access to such hardware in the team
- The only use case of libpisp is to enable the new pisp camera driver used
in Raspberry Pi 5 and above. So, the test for libpisp would be that
camera modules work on Raspberry Pi 5 and above. This will be part
of the ISO tests of Ubuntu Desktop images for the Raspberry Pi.
- This package is minimal and will be tested in a more wide-reaching
solution context libcamera and rpicam-apps
[Quality assurance - packaging]
- debian/watch is present and works
- debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field
- This package does not yield massive lintian Warnings, Errors
- https://launchpadlibrarian.net/769501355/buildlog_ubuntu-plucky-arm64.libpisp_1.0.7-0ubuntu2_BUILDING.txt.gz
- https://launchpadlibrarian.net/769501354/buildlog_ubuntu-plucky-armhf.libpisp_1.0.7-0ubuntu2_BUILDING.txt.gz
- lintian --pedantic:
W: libpisp source: newer-standards-version 4.7.0 (current is 4.6.2)
P: libpisp source: trailing-whitespace [debian/changelog:6]
- Lintian overrides are not present
- This package does not rely on obsolete or about-to-be-demoted packages.
- This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies
- The package will be installed by default but does not ask debconf
questions higher than medium
- Packaging and build is easy; link to debian/rules:
https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpisp/tree/debian/rules
[UI standards]
- Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation)
[Dependencies]
- There are further dependencies that are not yet in main (nlohmann-json3):
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nlohmann-json3/+bug/2093868
[Standards compliance]
- This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy
[Maintenance/Owner]
- The owning team will be Ubuntu Foundations - Architectures, and I have
their acknowledgement of that commitment
- This does not use static builds
- This does not use vendor code
- This package is not rust-based
- The package has been built within the last 3 months in the archive
- The package has been built within the last 3 months in PPA
- Build link on launchpad:
- https://launchpadlibrarian.net/764085619/buildlog_ubuntu-plucky-arm64.libpisp_1.0.7-0ubuntu1_BUILDING.txt.gz
- https://launchpadlibrarian.net/769501355/buildlog_ubuntu-plucky-arm64.libpisp_1.0.7-0ubuntu2_BUILDING.txt.gz
[Background information]
The Package description explains the package well
Upstream Name is libpisp
Link to upstream project: https://github.com/raspberrypi/libpisp
This library is essential for the new PiSP camera drivers for the Raspberry Pi 5
in libcamera, and if not added to main blocks migration of libcamera.
