Dear maintainer, The snapd package provides the following files which are statically linked against glibc: /usr/lib/snapd/snap-update-ns /usr/lib/snapd/snap-gdbserver-shim /usr/lib/snapd/snap-gdb-shim glibc is mostly is mostly licensed under the LGPL, which requires that the full source code of the incorporating binary package be made available. According to Debian Policy §7.8 [1] such a binary package MUST list the glibc source package (and possibly others) in the Built-Using: field.

Hi Zygmunt, Thanks! Yes, you can upload it directly, but to sid, not trixie. It'll migrate with the unblock. If your upload contains only that change, the release team might even unblock it without the freeze exception bug, but in principle it's better to fill a bug for that. Regards Aurelien
This was fixed with the upload of src:snapd 2.68.3-3, but there wasn't a Closes stanza in the changelog to automatically close this bug. https://tracker.debian.org/news/1650947/accepted-snapd-2683-3-source-into-unstable/
