Bug Description
[Availability]
The package ubuntu-
The package ubuntu-
It currently builds and works for architectures: amd64 arm64 armhf ppc64el riscv64 s390x
Link to package https:/
[Rationale]
- The package will be used to handle Ubuntu Advantage subscriptions on the desktop, including ESM and livepatch integrations. Having a service will make easier to do integration with different parts of the desktop without having to reimplement similar code as we are doing today.
[Security]
- No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past as it's a new project.
- no `suid` or `sgid` binaries
- no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
- Package installs services but without rights restriction, those proposed changed make use of systemd to limit the permissions, https:/
- Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024)
- Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software
[Quality assurance - function/usage]
- The package works well right after install
[Quality assurance - maintenance]
- The package is maintained well in Ubuntu and has not bug open yet
- Ubuntu https:/
- The package isn't availabe in Debian since the Ubuntu Advantage service is specific to our distro.
- The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support
[Quality assurance - testing]
- The package includes a test suite on build time, if it fails it makes the build fail, link to build log
https:/
- The package does not run an autopkgtest yet, the enabling of private subcription isn't easy to do on the infrastructure so we will follow a manual testplan, https:/
- The package does have no failing autopkgtests right now since it doesn't have any
[Quality assurance - packaging]
- debian/watch is not present because it is a native package
- building from the current vcs, lintian has only one warning about the debhelper version being outdated
# lintian --pedantic
P: ubuntu-
Using an outdated version is a choice because we aim at SRUing the service back to bionic with one source.
- 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
- Packaging and build is easy, link to d/rules https:/
[UI standards]
- Application is end-user facing through polkit permission prompts, Translation is present, via standard gettext, the package is translatable on launchpad, https:/
[Dependencies]
- No further depends or recommends dependencies that are not yet in main
[Standards compliance]
- This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy
[Maintenance/Owner]
- Owning Team will be desktop-packages
- Team is not yet, but will subscribe to the package before promotion
- This does not use static builds
- This does not use vendored code

I'm going to add the package to the MIR queue review at this point, the testplan wiki should be added in the next days as well as the improved systemd security
