Feature #3699
openmerge Debian patches
90%
Description
There're numerous patches from Debian developers available via:
https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?email=Debian-mobcom-maintainers%40lists.alioth.debian.org
individual package links example:
https://sources.debian.org/patches/libosmo-sccp/0.10.0-2/
Relevant package version could be obtained from the first link.
Some of those patches are Debian-specific while others are generally relevant fixes. We should go over all packaged projects and submit all relevant patches to gerrit for review.
Note: Debian seems to have the most recent versions packaged compared to other repositories according to repology - see for example
https://repology.org/metapackage/libosmocore/versions

Reasonable patches have been pushed to gerrit.
Outstanding BE handling patches that need some thought:

This patch needs to be removed by the maintainer, it jeopardizes any use of libosmogb:

can you be more specific why it jeopardizes any use of libosmogb? Also, was this reported as a debian bug? If not, why? If so, please include the reference to the debian bugtracker here. thanks!
Also, the issue is still marked as "new" and "0%" even thought some work was done months ago. I wuold have expected it to go from new->in_progress, then some percentage increase, and finally go to stalled when priorities changed to stop working on it.

- Status changed from New to In Progress
- % Done changed from 0 to 90
All reasonable patches were merged.
As for the aliasing issue, this was added by you, and it has to be part of the cflags, since it concerns the headers and therefore other users of libosmocore, but the debian linter doesn't like such flags - see https://gerrit.osmocom.org/plugins/gitiles/libosmocore/+/ca0af8a3a862d5189915c02c2bc85461a3b33415 or https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/libosmocore/+/1426 for a short explanation.
I've just filed a debian bug for that.
