Title:
[SRU] ucf fails to work for local diversions on Jammy
To manag
Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately this doesn't address my concerns
though. Please address paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 from my comment 7 above.
Depending on your answer, it may be the case that I end up rejecting the
SRU because the impact is not sufficient to justify one (see:

1. From man page does allude to that.
" -P foo, --package foo
Don't follow dpkg-divert diversions by package foo when updating
configuration files.

which implies ucf should (and does) respect/handle diversions.
2. Further: "ucf should respect dpkg-divert" (refer

FWIW, it's not necessary to mention this directly. It is correct to do
it, but convention is to skip mentioning it in the changelog because
otherwise we'd have to unnecessarily mention it on nearly every Ubuntu
upload.

I wondered if ucf is expected to handle dpkg-divert -ed files in the
first place, since that seemed odd to me. It does seem like that's a
feature the code was intended to support, although it's unclear to me if
it ever worked, and it's not really documented anywhere I can find
except that is implie
Thanks for the confirmation on Focal, @pponnuvel!
I've tested your debdiff, and it seems to work correctly. Patch is also
a straightforward cherry-pick from Debian.
Sponsored for Jammy, with the update-maintainer changes.

Thanks, Heitor. I'll remember to run `update-maintainer` going forward!
Re. Focal: The syntax error and relevant code was introduced in 3.0040
whereas Focal is using older ucf. Thus Focal is unaffected. Likewise
Lunar/Mantic/Noble have the fixed version already. So this is a Jammy-
only backport.
Hi Pon,
thanks for the revised debdiff! This seems to be a non-quilt package, so
your approach of directly patching the ucf/ucfr scripts is correct. The
only thing missing is running the update-maintainer script, as the
ubuntu1 version requires having an ubuntu.com address on the maintainers
field
Thanks, Dariusz!
I've attached a new debdiff.

Hey Pon, the debdiff contains changes to a bunch of files inside .pc
which should not be included.
Can you try generating the debdiff again wtihout these changes?
Once of the ways would be to drop in a patch to d/patches and add it
with quilt or apply it with the "patch" command and then run "dpk
