[ Apologies, I thought I'd already sent this a couple of days back. :-( ] Hey folks, Related to the wider issue report in #1135716: We should update fwupd in trixie to aid with the UEFI Secure Boot CA updates process that I've laid out in https://wiki.debian.org/SecureBoot/CAChanges and in #1138871 Our initial expectations that 2.0.8 (already in trixie) would work for these updates were proven to be incorrect. We'd therefore like to update to 2.0.20 in trixie, which matches the existing bpo release. We know that works, and the fact that it has already seen good testing in -backports outweighs the downside of bumping by a number of upstream releases here. Mario has already prepped the changes in git, but not yet uploaded. We'd like to get approval before doing that please. The debdiff is large, too large to sensibly include in mail. :-(

Hi, Please go ahead (unusually, yes without a debdiff - it's likely unreviewable anyway, and I've done minimum checking in VCS including the symbols file and that's probably as good as we're going to manage for this one, no precedents). I have not seen the changelog but the version should likely be 2.0.20-1~deb13u1, not +deb13u1. Please send the changelog if you want advice before uploading. Thanks,

IMHO that was correct, since the NMU was a backport of a change that is already in 2.0.12-1 (according to #1123749 metadata). cu Adrian
Yeah; that was my expectation as well. Regarding stable vs stable-updates, I thought that it gets remapped by dak. Is that not the case? I saw this on my upload. Mapping trixie to stable. Mapping stable to proposed-updates.
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#special-case-the-stable-updates-suite "Once the upload has been accepted to proposed-updates and is ready for release, the stable release managers will then copy it to the stable-updates suite and issue a Stable Update" and like the previous package in stable-updates: https://tracker.debian.org/news/1664770/accepted-systemd-2578-1deb13u2-source-into-proposed-updates/ https://lists.debian.org/debian-stable-announce/2025/09/msg00002.html cu Adrian
Those aren't stable-updates, which is the accelerated release route. You're just doing stable, and the internal detail of it being via proposed-updates is not relevant for readers of the changelog.
Hi, Just for the avoidance of doubt (and not to nag) I'm awaiting an upload from you with the same version number and the appropriate corrections. Thanks,
Your new upload still targets stable-updates where it should be 'trixie' or 'stable'. Fortunately I can map that so I will not reject again but please be mindful in future. Thanks,
