Add Plucky as a known Ubuntu distribution

[Simon Quigley]

In several stable releases of Ubuntu, Vim needs accurate information about Ubuntu and Debian codenames. This information should be aligned with what is in distro-info-data.

There is a minimal regression potential here; Vim simply reads a statically-set Perl array to determine if the release in the changelog and sources.list is supported or not. Any regression would present itself in external tooling that detects text highlighting, which is not a case I think we support in Ubuntu.

A simple way to test this update is to download a package from the Plucky archive, and open the changelog with Vim. Instead of the changelog release (e.g. "plucky") showing as red, it should show as blue. I would also suggest editing sources.list, to ensure e.g. Kinetic shows as EOL.

This bug was fixed in the package vim - 2:9.1.0777-1ubuntu1

---------------
vim (2:9.1.0777-1ubuntu1) plucky; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian Unstable. Remaining changes:
    - debian/runtime/vimrc:
      + "syntax on" is a sane default for non-tiny Vim.
    - debian/patches/debian/ubuntu-grub-syntax.patch:
      + Add Ubuntu-specific "quiet" keyword.
    - debian/patches/ubuntu-mouse-off.patch:
     + Mouse mode is actively harmful in some chroots.
    - debian/patches/increase_timeout.diff:
      + Increase timeout for the Test_pattern_compile_speed patch.
    - debian/patches/0001-fix-flaky-terminal-mode-test.vim:
      + Fix flaky Vim terminal mode test.
    - debian/patches/0002-disable-failing-tests-on-ppc64.patch:
      + Disable some tests that were throwing an ENOMEM during build on
        ppc64el. The tests are only disabled when building on ppc64el.
  * Welcome to Plucky Puffin! (LP: #2084706)

vim (2:9.1.0777-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Merge upstream patch v9.1.0777
    + Security fixes:
      - 9.1.0764: Fix use-after-free when closing a buffer in a BufWinLeave
        autocmd, CVE-2024-47814
  * Make autopkgtests validate the language bindings. The previous
    autopkgtests ran the entire upstream test suite whose flakiness made it
    useless as a marker for whether a package update broke Vim. Since the
    language bindings are the most likely to be affected by package updates,
    just test those in autopkgtests and remove the "flaky" restriction.
  * Declare compliance with Policy 4.7.0, no changes required

vim (2:9.1.0709-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Build with -O1 on s390x to workaround #1082125

vim (2:9.1.0709-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Merge upstream patch v9.1.0709
    + Security fixes:
      - 9.1.0707: Fix possibility of invalid cursor position, CVE-2024-45306
    + 9.1.0706: Fix test_gettext tests when building in a shadow directory
    + 9.1.0709: Fix lookup of GUIEnter autocmd name in Turkish locale (Closes:
      #1074174)
  * Build-Depend on locales-all package to test new gettext() vimscript function
  * Delete runtime/doc/tags-* (language specific tags) during clean

vim (2:9.1.0698-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Merge upstream tag v9.1.0698
    + Security fixes:
      - 9.1.0647: Fix use-after-free in tagstack_clear_entry(), CVE-2024-41957
      - 9.1.0648: Fix double free in dialog_changed(), CVE-2024-41965
      - 9.1.0678: Fix use-after-free in alist_add(), CVE-2024-43374
      - 9.1.0689: Fix buffer-overflow in do_search() when 'rightleft' is set,
        CVE-2024-43790
      - 9.1.0697: Fix heap-buffer-overflow in ins_typebuf(), CVE-2024-43802
    + 9.1.0568: Add support for completing paths from 'cdpath' in :cd (Closes:
      #509940)
  * Clarify defaults.vim instructions in system vimrc when wanting to source
    defaults.vim to build on top of its settings.
  * Adjust make parameter used to specify vim binary, since upstream changed
    the expected variable name in multiple makefiles

failing dep8 on oracular: dracut (https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/results/autopkgtest-oracular/oracular/amd64/d/dracut/20241104_221517_1e400@/log.gz)

I think due to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/2084251

I retried the test including the updated systemd from proposed, and now it passed. Meaning, it should be released together with the systemd update if possible, but that one is blocked on a question at the moment.

[Andreas Hasenack (ahasenack)]

I believe this is OK to release without the updated systemd, as the change here has nothing to do with the failed test from before, and that run is green with the new systemd which will eventually make it to updates as well.
