A previous MIR bug was open back in March 2023 (see LP: #2008799)
[Availability]
The package libtracefs is already in Ubuntu universe.
The package libtracefs build for the architectures it is designed to work on.
It currently builds and works for architectures: amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x.
Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libtracefs
[Rationale]
- The package libtracefs is a runtime dependency of trace-cmd (MIR bug: LP: #2051850)
- The package libtracefs is required in Ubuntu main no later than Feb 29 2024 (Feature Freeze) due to the will to have performance/tracing tools in Noble (LTS).
[Security]
- Nothing was found in the CVE database https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=libtracefs
- Also nothing was found in the OSS security mailing list archive.
- No CVE in the Ubuntu security tracker https://ubuntu.com/security/cves?package=libtracefs
- Nor in the Debian security tracker https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/libtracefs
- No executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
- Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs
- Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024)
- Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software (filters, scanners, plugins, UI skins, ...)
[Quality assurance - function/usage]
- The package works well right after install
[Quality assurance - maintenance]
- The package is maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu/Upstream and does not have too many, long-term & critical, open bugs
- Ubuntu [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libtracefs/+bug](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libtracefs/+bug)
- Debian [https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=libtracefs](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=libtracefs)
- The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support
[Quality assurance - testing]
- The package runs a test suite on build time, if it fails it makes the build fail, link to build log:
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/709710895/buildlog_ubuntu-noble-amd64.libtracefs_1.8.0-1_BUILDING.txt.gz
- The package runs an autopkgtest, but it is a "superficial" one. It is currently passing on amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, s390x:

- https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/results/autopkgtest-noble/noble/s390x/libt/libtracefs/20240108_125300_f280f@/log.gz
[Quality assurance - packaging]
- debian/watch is present and works
- debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field
- This package does not yield massive lintian Warnings, Errors
- Lintian overrides are not present
- This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages.
- The package will not be installed by default
- Packaging and build is easy, link to d/rules https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libtracefs/tree/debian/rules
[UI standards]
- Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation)
[Dependencies]
- There is one dependency that is not yet in main, MIR for libtraceevent at:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libtraceevent/+bug/2051916
[Standards compliance]
- This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy
[Maintenance/Owner]
- Owning Team will be Foundations
- Team is not yet, but will subscribe to the package before promotion
- A static libtracefs.a library is being built and shipped in libtracefs-dev
- This does not use vendored code
- This package is not rust based
- This package has been built recently https://launchpadlibrarian.net/709710895/buildlog_ubuntu-noble-amd64.libtracefs_1.8.0-1_BUILDING.txt.gz
