Thomas, I think a 2-day NMU fixing only this bug is appropriate, but
since you got review feedback from Sandro, try to go through it in order
to improve the change.

I'm happy to comply to any suggestion. So far, I haven't read any that deserve a change, only one remark about the ordering of ADP0 before AC
and AC0, though IMO that's not changing anything to the final result
(ie: have all 3 (AC, AC0 and ADP0) supported). Though if that is the
only blocker, I'll happily do as suggested.

in my reply, i asked you 3 questions: let me cut and paste them here
below so you may have a chance to answer them:

1. have you contacted upstream about this patch?
2. do you have any references in the kernel code for this new path?
3. or a reason why sometimes you added ADP0 as the first item in the
list, and others as the last one?

Sandro, that is not fair to others in the project. You maintain a package that
has reverse dependencies, but is not currently in testing.

AFAICT src:python-psutil is in testing, just at a different version
than unstable; am i missing something here?

With the soft freeze
arriving in 7 days, no new packages will be allowed into testing, which means that any rdeps will be out of trixie.

before replying to Thomas, i reviewed the freeze email sent to d-d-a and i read

* 2025-04-15 - Milestone 2 - Soft Freeze
no new packages, delayed migration
* 2025-05-15 - Milestone 3 - Hard Freeze - key packages and packages
without autopkgtests need a manual unblock for migration
* TBA - Milestone 4 - Full Freeze
all packages need a manual unblock for migration

unless you plan on removing packages that have different versions, and
by the way i read the list, src:python-psutil should be able to
migrate to testing, at a later version, until the full freeze starts
(not that i plan to wait that long).

You can't ask people not to do NMUs, as that's a tool of the project to help fix
bugs. Note that according to the NMU docs [1], 2-day or even 0-day NMUs are possible in some cases.

i reviewed that document before replying to Thomas, and they dont seem
to apply here (e.g. when the NMU was proposed, 7 days have not been
passed yet).

So please, do attempt to get your package into testing, and if you don't, then
don't block others from doing so.

did i say somewhere that i will not fix this bug in time for trixie?

I thought I have already replied to that already.

can you point me to where you've answered them? i dont see it my email client

Not sure why, but
since you're asking: let me do it again.

1/ No. Please do it yourself, since you're solo-maintaining the package.

wow, okay, fair enough.

2/ Yes. Explore a "git log" and you'll see reference to it in patch
headers. Also, my laptop's config shows the exact file structure psutil
is expecting under that folder, so that's good enough proof. Plus maybe
you should research it yourself if you want to know better. Why asking
me to do that?

you are proposing a fix, *you* are the one that should have done the
research beforehand.

3/ No reason. Just like there's no reason to put it first. That's IMO cosmetic. Feel free to add some polish if you feel like it is important.
I don't,

sure.

I feel like it's a waste of time.

yep, i feel the same conversing with you. we're done here.

i'll handle this bug myself, the NACK to the NMU remains.
