Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: bookworm
X-Debbugs-Cc: oar@packages.debian.org, pierre.neyron@free.fr
Control: affects -1 + src:oar
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu

[ Reason ]
The oar package is suffering several issues in bookworm.
The root cause is that we forgot to update it in time with the release schedule, so the version in bookworm is the one in bullseye.

The testing version is a new upstream version (that fixes the following problems and also has other improvments)

We would like you to allow us to fix the following problems in stable:
- one of the package is a php program that does not work with php8 (bug #1068444)
- adduser >= 3.130 (ie the one in bookworm) changes the way adduser's --disabled-(login|password) options work.
  So, a fix when creating users is required (note: this bug appears only on fresh oar install, not on upgrade) (bug #1068713)
- a binary package (oar-web-status) is missing a dependency on libcgi-fast-perl (bug #1068711)

Note that #1068444 and #1068713 are fixed in testing for a long time (since the upload of 2.5.10-1)
#1068711 has just been noticed, with a upload in unstable a few minutes ago (in 2.5.10-2)

[ Impact ]
Without this upload:
- the draw-gantt webapp does not work at all in bookworm (php8 incompatibility)
- new installation of oar system cannot submit jobs (until the password field in /etc/shadow is manually fixed)
- libcgi-fast-perl must be manually installed if oar-web-status is to be used
  (this last bug is often hidden: if oar-restful-api is also installed, then the libcgi-fast-perl is installed)

[ Tests ]
Manual tests has been conducted upstream (and fixes have been in upstream 2.5.10 for a long time)

[ Risks ]
Modifications seems trivial and, except for the dependencies, used on production systems for several months.

[ Checklist ]
  [X] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
  [X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable

[ Changes ]
See previous explainations and debdiff.

  Regards
