** Description changed: [Availability] The package rust-threecpio is already in Ubuntu universe. The package rust-threecpio build for the architectures it is designed to work on. The build for i386 should be enabled to have it on all architectures. Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rust-threecpio [Rationale] - The package rust-threecpio is required in Ubuntu main for cpio archive - handling for initrds. + handling for initrds. - The package rust-threecpio will generally be useful for a large part of - our user base + our user base - Package rust-threecpio covers the same use case as GNU cpio, but is better - because 3cpio is written in Rust, thereby we want to replace it. + because 3cpio is written in Rust, thereby we want to replace it. - 3cpio only support the cpio format used for initrds, but generating initrd - is the only use case for GNU cpio to be in main. + is the only use case for GNU cpio to be in main. - This is the first time package will be in main - The binary packages 3cpio needs to be in main to provide the 3cpio command. - All binary packages built by rust-threecpio need to be in main (it only builds 3cpio) - It would be great and useful to community/processes to have the - package 3cpio in Ubuntu main this cycle, but there is no definitive deadline. + package 3cpio in Ubuntu main this cycle, but there is no definitive deadline. [Security] - No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past (since its birth in April 2024) - no `suid` or `sgid` binaries - no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin` - Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs - Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024). - Package does not expose any external endpoints - Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software - (filters, scanners, plugins, UI skins, ...) + (filters, scanners, plugins, UI skins, ...) [Quality assurance - function/usage] - The package works well right after install [Quality assurance - maintenance] - The package is maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu/Upstream and does - not have too many, long-term & critical, open bugs - - Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rust-threecpio/+bug - - Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=rust-threecpio (currently still in NEW) - - Upstream's bug tracker: https://github.com/bdrung/3cpio/issues + not have too many, long-term & critical, open bugs + - Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rust-threecpio/+bug + - Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=rust-threecpio (currently still in NEW) + - Upstream's bug tracker: https://github.com/bdrung/3cpio/issues - The package has no important open bugs (only feature requests) - The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support [Quality assurance - testing] RULE: - The package must include a non-trivial test suite RULE: - it should run at package build and fail the build if broken - The package runs a test suite on build time, if it fails - it makes the build fail, https://launchpadlibrarian.net/808547820/buildlog_ubuntu-questing-amd64.rust-threecpio_0.8.1-0ubuntu1_BUILDING.txt.gz + it makes the build fail, https://launchpadlibrarian.net/808547820/buildlog_ubuntu-questing-amd64.rust-threecpio_0.8.1-0ubuntu1_BUILDING.txt.gz - The package does not run an autopkgtest because I haven't figured out how to run the usptream tests in autopkgtest (examples of how other Rust packages do it are welcome) - The package does have not failing autopkgtests right now - Once we switch from cpio to 3cpio, 3cpio will be used/tested by the initramfs-tools and dracut autopkgtest. [Quality assurance - packaging] - debian/watch is present and works - debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field - This package does not yield massive lintian Warnings, Errors - Lintian overrides are not present lintian output of a local build of 0.8.1-0ubuntu1: W: rust-threecpio source: unknown-field Vendored-Sources-Rust I: rust-threecpio source: adopted-extended-field (in section for 3cpio) XB-X-Cargo-Built-Using [debian/control:33] I: rust-threecpio source: adopted-extended-field (in section for source) XSBC-Original-Maintainer [debian/control:17] I: 3cpio: file-references-package-build-path [usr/bin/3cpio] I: 3cpio: hardening-no-fortify-functions [usr/bin/3cpio] P: rust-threecpio source: package-does-not-install-examples [debian/rust-vendor/lexopt/examples/] X: rust-threecpio source: debian-watch-does-not-check-openpgp-signature [debian/watch] X: rust-threecpio source: prefer-uscan-symlink filenamemangle s/.*\/(.*)\/download/threecpio-$1\.tar\.gz/g [debian/watch:4] X: rust-threecpio source: update-debian-copyright 2024 vs 2025 [debian/copyright:26] X: rust-threecpio source: upstream-metadata-file-is-missing - This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages. - This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies - The package will be installed by default, but does not ask debconf - questions higher than medium + questions higher than medium - Packaging and build is easy, link to debian/rules: https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rust- threecpio/tree/debian/rules [UI standards] - Application is not really end-user facing (does not need translation) [Dependencies] - Used check-mir from ubuntu-dev-tools to validate - all dependencies or recommends are in main. + all dependencies or recommends are in main.

The plan is to change those tools to use 3cpio. The code for initramfs-tools is already written: https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/initramfs- tools/-/merge_requests/172. Code for dracut is pending. Changing microcode-initrd will be simple.
