Comment 9 for bug 1962743

Ah, there's actually something else: as Andreas mentioned before, one of the things we have to check is whether the reverse-depends of the package will build fine with the new version. I looked at your backports PPA linked above but couldn't find the rdeps there.

Here's the list:

$ reverse-depends --release focal -b src:freeipmi
Reverse-Build-Depends
* conman (for libipmiconsole-dev)
* conman (for libfreeipmi-dev)
* ipmitool (for libfreeipmi-dev)
* ipmiutil (for libfreeipmi-dev)
* netdata (for libipmimonitoring-dev)
* nut (for libipmimonitoring-dev)
* nut (for libfreeipmi-dev)
* slurm-llnl (for libfreeipmi-dev)
* slurm-llnl (for libipmimonitoring-dev)

Can you please verify that these dependencies still build fine with the new version of freeipmi you're proposing?

Thanks.
