As per Robie's comment, I think we can safely release this as is. Thanks! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gzip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1933516

[regression potential] as this sets NO_ASM any regression would likely involve changed performance or architecture-specific failures [racb] As NO_ASM switches code implementations inside gzip, it's possible that this regresses behaviour if a bug exists in the C implementation but not in the assembly implementation. However in mitigation the C implementation has been in use since Focal, and it doesn't look like anything relevant to this change has been changed since Bionic. [scope] this is needed only in b this was fixed in debian at version 1.9-2.1, so this is fixed already in f and later To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gzip/+bug/1933516/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
