Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: harry@debian.org
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
Control: affects -1 src:zfs-linux

Dear release managers,

Please unblock package zfs-linux (pre-approval request).

Please see [1] for current state of the package, and [2] for diff
between 2.3.3-1 and 2.3.2-1 (current in trixie).

[ Reason ]

There are two main reasons for this unblock request:

1. zfs has released a stable release 2.3.3, which contains multiple bug
   fixes, especially the RC bug #1106035. We would like to include this
   version in trixie.
2. zfs does not run any autopkgtest on i386 due to no kernel image is
   availble on that platform (but userspace tools are still useful). So
   it will be blocked by britney even after the delay.

[ Impact ]

Since there's an RC bug, we need to cherry-pick fixes to prevent zfs
from being removed. This will however lead to another unblock request
due to reason 2.

[ Tests ]
 
* zfs has its test suites covering multiple distributions & kernels.
* I have run both autopkgtest (smoking tests) and zfs test suites
  manually on my trixie install.

[ Risks ]

The whole changes are large, but mostly upstream diff. Since the code
is a upstream stable release, and that they are heavily tested, I reckon
this part to be relatively safe.

For the debian part, I did not make non-trivial modifications.
My changes include:

* refresh of patch sets (only line offsets changed)
* tiny changes to library symbol list (there are some deletions, but
  these libraries are internally used and we use strict version
  dependency, so this is not a ABI break).
* changes to d/copyright to make lintian happy.

[ Checklist ]

  [*] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [*] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [ ] attach debdiff against the package in testing -- no, please see
      above for explanation
