• Bug#1101327: Should yosys-plugin-ghdl be removed from unstable?

    From Helmut Grohne@21:1/5 to All on Tue Mar 25 20:30:01 2025
    Source: yosys-plugin-ghdl
    Severity: important
    User: helmutg@debian.org
    Usertags: sidremove

    Dear maintainer,

    I suggest removing yosys-plugin-ghdl from Debian for the following reasons:
    * It accumulated one RC-bug:
    + #1067465: yosys-plugin-ghdl builds on x86 only, but built on other architectures before
    Last modified: 1 year, 1 day

    * It is not part of bookworm or trixie and is not a key package.

    This bug serves as a pre-removal warning. After one month, the bug will be reassigned to ftp.debian.org to actually request removal of the package.

    In case the package should be kept in unstable, please evaluate each of the RC-bugs listed above.
    * If the bug is meant to permanently prevent the package from entering testing
    or a stable release, but this package should stay part of unstable, please
    add a usertag:

    user helmutg@debian.org
    usertags NNN + sidremove-ignore

    * If the bug no longer applies, please close it. If it is closed, check
    whether the fixed version is correct and adjust if necessary.

    * Is the bug really release-critical? If not, please downgrade.

    * If the bug still applies, please send a status update at least once a year.

    Once all of the mentioned RC bugs have been acted upon in one way or another, please close this bug.

    In case the package should be removed from unstable, you may reassign this
    bug report:

    Control: severity -1 normal
    Control: retitle -1 RM: yosys-plugin-ghdl -- RoM; rc-buggy
    Control: reassign -1 ftp.debian.org
    Control: affects -1 + src:yosys-plugin-ghdl

    Alternatively, you may wait a month and have it reassigned.

    In case you disagree with the above, please add a wontfix tag to this bug.

    Control: tags -1 + wontfix

    Doing so will also prevent automatic reassignment.

    Dear yosys-plugin-ghdl maintainer and ftp team,

    a month has passed since filing a suggestion to remove yosys-plugin-ghdl
    from Debian. It was suggested for removal due to not being part of bookworm
    nor trixie and having accumulated a long-standing RC bug.
    * #1067465: yosys-plugin-ghdl builds on x86 only, but built on other architectures before

    Since the suggestion bug was neither closed nor tagged in a month, silent consent to proceed with removal is assumed.

    I'm still planning to bring this package back into shape before the release
    but it's blocking on work in ghdl, how do I express this to your
    automation?

    Thanks,

    I'm glad you want to save this package. The automation acts on inactive
    rc bugs. The relevant bug is #1067465. Please state your intention to
    fix that problem (ideally with a brief plan of what needs doing or
    adding blocking bugs) on that particular bug. Then close this
    pre-removal bug. Your mail to #1067465 will be considered activity and
    that will postpone any attempt for removal for a year. I hope you'll
    have managed to fix it within a year. If not, please state your
    intention again.

    Helmut
