I was checking 38 bugs today which is a lot for a friday.
But it turned out that a lot of that buzz was due to plenty of
cases being re-checked and marked as released with the Hirsute
feature freeze happening yesterday.

Some needed a bit of triage, worth to mention are two of them

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/base-files/+bug/1916935
Reported as a glibc/postgresql issue but actually a change in bionic
base files back in 2018 changing how LC_* variables are set on a login
shell. We'll leave that to foundations, but I wanted to raise awareness
when triaging bugs in regard to LC_ settings.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/squid/+bug/1860807
This is another instance of the "is openssl linkable" legal discussion.
There was now the update that on Debian this was decided to be a system
lib (as in fedora) and therefore Debians squid will change to that.
We have had other cases related to this - once this is really settled
also on the Ubuntu side we can follow the Debian change on this.
