Jay, no freeze exception is required for sorting out this -proposed migration. Everything what is uploaded or synced before freeze does not need an exception, independent whether it migrates into the release before or after the freeze.
Also after the freeze one can do bug fix uploads/syncs. So your upload/sync of 10.6.2 has already defined that Ubuntu 22.04 LTS will ship with QPDF 10.6.x feature-wise. If you spin a 10.6.3 with only bug fixes, no new features, I will sync it (before Final Freeze at the latest). A fix which is needed to make QPDF migrate from -proposed to release is also a bug fix and does not need a freeze exception. So your QPDF 10.6.x feature level is already in. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to qpdf in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1960924 Title: qpdf 10.6.2 not syncing (freeze exception?) Status in qpdf package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I'm noticing that qpdf-10.6.1 is not syncing from Debian even though, as far as I can see, automatic sync freeze has not yet happened. There are some major changes in 10.6 that I would really like to get into Ubuntu because they include transitional code to help users migrate to qpdf 11. Is there something that needs to happen for this to sync? I don't want to miss the window. At this time, there are test failures in pikepdf because of a bug fix to qpdf in transcoding. We have determined that these test failures don't indicate a serious problem with either qpdf or pikepdf -- they are basically that pikepdf had some tests that were depending on incorrect qpdf functionality. For details, see https://github.com/pikepdf/pikepdf/issues/303 The pikepdf author is aware of the upcoming Ubuntu 22.04 freeze and is trying to get a fix in in time, but I'm hoping we can avoid getting into a situation where we miss the bus. There's a chance I might release 10.6.2 to fix one other minor transcoding issue, but I don't consider the issue to be important enough to justify a release. But if the pikepdf author wants a release to simplify his testing, I will do it.
