Review for Package: ruby-mime- types-data
[Summary] types-data
MIR team ACK under the constraint to resolve the below listed
required TODOs and as much as possible having a look at the
recommended TODOs.
This does not need a security review
List of specific binary packages to be promoted to main: ruby-mime-
Notes:
The package does not contain any tests, but this is not a problem since
this is data packaging and no source code.
Required TODOs:
1. The latest upstream release is 2022.0105, the release in Ubuntu and
debian is 2015.1120-1. According to the changelog, there is an update
in 2022 however which pulls in from upstream but the version remains
the same, please take a look at it.
- The package should get a team bug subscriber before being promoted
[Duplication]
There is no other package in main providing the same functionality.
[Dependencies]
OK:
- no other Dependencies to MIR due to this
- mime-types-data checked with `check-mir`
- all dependencies can be found in `seeded-in-ubuntu` (already in main)
- none of the (potentially auto-generated) dependencies (Depends
and Recommends) that are present after build are not in main
- no -dev/-debug/-doc packages that need exclusion
- No dependencies in main that are only superficially tested requiring
more tests now.
Problems: None
[Embedded sources and static linking]
OK:
- no embedded source present
- no static linking
- does not have unexpected Built-Using entries
- not a go package, no extra constraints to consider in that regard
- not a rust package, no extra constraints to consider in that regard
- Does not include vendored code
Problems: None
[Security]
OK:
- history of CVEs does not look concerning
- does not run a daemon as root
- does not use webkit1,2
- does not use lib*v8 directly
- does not parse data formats (files [images, video, audio,
xml, json, asn.1], network packets, structures, ...) from
an untrusted source.
- does not open a port/socket
- does not process arbitrary web content
- does not use centralized online accounts
- does not integrate arbitrary javascript into the desktop
- does not deal with system authentication (eg, pam), etc)
- does not deal with security attestation (secure boot, tpm, signatures)
- does not deal with cryptography (en-/decryption, certificates, signing, ...)
Problems: None
[Common blockers]
OK:
- does not FTBFS currently
- no new python2 dependency
Problems: None
[Packaging red flags]
OK:
- Ubuntu does not carry a delta
- symbols tracking not applicable for this kind of code.
- d/watch is present and looks ok (if needed, e.g. non-native)
- Upstream update history is good
- Debian/Ubuntu update history is sporadic
- promoting this does not seem to cause issues for MOTUs that so far
maintained the package
- no massive Lintian warnings
- d/rules is rather clean
- It is not on the lto-disabled list
Problems:
- the current release is packaged
[Upstream red flags]
OK:
- no Errors/warnings during the build
- no incautious use of malloc/sprintf (as far as we can check it)
- no use of sudo, gksu, pkexec, or LD_LIBRARY_PATH (usage is OK inside
tests)
- no use of user nobody
- no use of setuid
- no important open bugs (crashe...
