2020-06-01 10:59:12 Łukasz Zemczak description Dear Maintainer, I am the upstream developer for gummi. After a long hiatus I have in recent months resumed development. Unfortunately the gummi package that was imported from Debian sid for this Ubuntu release is a development build that suffers from a critical bug. I hereby request to: 1. Update the package to stable release 0.8.1 (see [2]) 2. Remove the package from ubuntu universe/tex Thanks in advance and with kind regards, alexandervdm [1] https://github.com/alexandervdm/gummi/issues/33 [2] https://github.com/alexandervdm/gummi/releases/tag/0.8.1 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: gummi 0.7.999-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-18.22-generic 5.4.24 Uname: Linux 5.4.0-18-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu26 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: MATE Date: Tue Apr 14 10:54:35 2020 InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-02-24 (49 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-MATE 20.04 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Alpha amd64 (20200211) SourcePackage: gummi UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) [Impact] The package in focal is based on an unofficial, not to be used in production version of the package. Because of that it suffers from a critical bug and multiple other issues. Backporting a single fix is not feasible, as the synced version is in overall not in production-ready state. The best option to proceed is to backport the whole version before people actually lose their data by using the deprecated software.

The best option to proceed is to backport the whole version before people actually lose their data by using the deprecated software. The bug in mention is a racing/thread safety problem, as reported here: https://github.com/alexandervdm/gummi/issues/126 [Test Case] The original critical bug is hard to reproduce. Users can randomly encounter the segfault after some time of regular usage. As part of validation, since this is a new upstream release, regular usage of the -proposed package is required for longer periods of time (let's say, up to 45 minutes). This means checking for the basic functionality: * Opening and saving LaTeX documents * Inserting graphics * Live preview check The upstream maintainer will help performing the required validation. [Regression Potential] As this is a new upstream release, there is always chance of regression. That being said, the current version has been deemed more risky and dangerous than 0.8.1 as it is not an 'officially tagged' release. As such, it was not meant to be used in production, so the situation can't actually get much worse. [Original Description] Dear Maintainer, I am the upstream developer for gummi.
