@Didier, the tests have been fixed now in Debian and they changed to
make the build success conditional to the results so the remainign items
should be addressed, the fixed revision is in impish,
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/536381793/buildlog_ubuntu-impish-amd64
.libayatana-appindicator_0.5.5-3_BUILDING.txt.gz
** Description changed:
* Availability
It's available on the Ubuntu supported architectures
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libayatana-appindicator/0.5.5-2
The package is in sync with Debian
* Rationale
The source is a community maintained replacement for our current
libappindicator. Debian has transitioned and we plan to follow their
lead now, demoting libappindicator to universe until we can remove it
from the archive.
The binary to promote is libappindicator3-1
The request is low priority, it's a target of opportunity transition, it
doesn't need to land this cycle
* Security
There is no known security issues
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/libayatana-appindicator
https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/pkg/libayatana-appindicator.html
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=libayatana-appindicator
* Quality assurance
The desktop team is going to subscribe to the package
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libayatana-appindicator/+bugs
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=libayatana-appindicator
The source depends on some outdated libraries but that's because there
are still old applications needing it, that's already the case with our
libappindicator so not a change of status
The package enables upstream tests during the build but some are currently failing (and the Debian package doesn't stop the build on errors), that has been reported to Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=982845 and needs to be resolved before promotion
The package doesn't provide autopkgtests, which has been reported to Debian . That's not a regression compared to our current libappindicator
+ Update, the tests issue has been resolved in Debian and Impish now
