Bug Description
The Ubuntu delta contains two patches:
* d/p/private-
This patch was applied in Ubuntu to fix a FTBFS issue on nuxwdog. nuxwdog was a C++ project and would include the header file from libkeyutils-dev. Unfortunately, the header file contains variables named "private" - which is a keyword in C++ but not in C.
The last version of nuxwdog from the archive is in Bionic so I am tempted to drop this patch. The bug report on Debian was closed/not-fixed when nuxwdog was removed from the archive: https:/
If we drop this, there is a chance, however, that other packages would FTBFS if they build-depends on libkeyutils-dev and include the C header in C++ code. Here is the list of packages that build-depends on libkeyutils-dev:
* bcachefs-tools
* ceph
* cifs-utils
* ecryptfs-utils
* gdm3
* gssproxy
* ima-evm-utils
* kafs-client
* krb5
* kstart
* ndctl
* nfs-utils
* python-keyutils
* sssd
* stress-ng
All these packages are in Debian unstable today and are not FTBFS, so I'd assume it's fine to drop the patch.
* d/p/apply-
This patch was applied recently (from upstream) to fix #1962453. I think we need to keep this patch and I'm considering forwarding it to Debian.
