Public bug reported:

[Availability]

The package user-session-migration is already in Ubuntu universe.
The package user-session-migration build fine.

Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/user-session-
migration

The package is actually already in main as
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/session-migration but it has
been now ported to debian and renamed.

[Rationale]

The plan is to use the more maintained debian version in ubuntu, and
just dismiss the old session-migration by making it a transitional
package.

 - The package TBDSRC is required in Ubuntu main for user sessions migration
   as session-migration already does, but it allows us to reduce the delta with 
debian
   in packages that require migration.

 - The solution we already have in main is not maintained anymore.
 - The original source package was in MIR as per (LP: #1024381)

 - The binary package user-session-migration needs to be in main to be seeded 
and run on every user login
 - All other binary packages built by user-session-migration should remain in 
universe

 - It would be great and useful to community/processes to have the
   package user-session-migration in Ubuntu main, while there is no definitive 
deadline,
   having it by early next cycle would help the transition to the new tool.

[Security]

 - No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past (for both sources):
   https://ubuntu.com/security/cves?package=user-session-migration
   https://ubuntu.com/security/cves?package=session-migration

 - The package install systemd user services enabled by default

 - Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024).
 - Packages open privileged ports (ports < 1024), but they have
 - Package does not expose any external endpoints

[Quality assurance - function/usage]
 - The package works well right after install

[Quality assurance - maintenance]
 - The package is maintained well in Debian and does
   not have too many, long-term & critical, open bugs

   - Ubuntu 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/user-session-migration/+bug
   - Debian 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=user-session-migration
   - Debian (upstream) 
https://salsa.debian.org/debian-ayatana-team/user-session-migration

 - The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support

[Quality assurance - testing]

No tests are present in the source code, the tool runs for some years in 
million on machines, though,
but we should definitely add some basic tests to it.

[Quality assurance - packaging]
 - debian/watch is not present because it is a native package

 - debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field
 - Packaging and build is easy, link to debian/rules TBD

[UI standards]
 - Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation)

[Dependencies]

They are all in main

[Standards compliance]
 - This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy

[Maintenance/Owner]

 - I Suggest the owning team to be ~ubuntu-desktop
