Dear maintainers,
Analysis of the archive for the 64-bit time_t transition[0][1] identifies luasocket as an affected package, on the basis that the headers could not
be compiled and analyzed out of the box using abi-compliance-checker[2], so we have to assume it's affected.
However, lua-socket's shlibs file declares a dependency on a library package name that contains no ABI information:
$ cat DEBIAN/shlibs
liblua5.1-mime 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.1-socket-serial 0 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.1-socket-unix 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.1-socket 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.2-mime 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.2-socket-serial 0 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.2-socket-unix 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.2-socket 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.3-mime 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.3-socket-serial 0 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.3-socket-unix 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.3-socket 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.4-mime 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.4-socket-serial 0 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.4-socket-unix 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
liblua5.4-socket 2 lua-socket (>= 3.1.0)
$
It is therefore not obvious that we should rename the package to 'lua-sockett64' as part of this transition.
Looking at the archive, there is a package built from the separate lua-sec source package that depends on this library.
Since there is no self-evident thing to do with the library package name here, we will not be handling this package as part of the mass NMUs.
Instead I am filing a serious bug because partial upgrades from bookworm to trixie on 32-bit architectures will result in ABI skew and may result in broken behavior.
Thanks,
