dbus 1.14.6-1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

dbus (1.14.6-1ubuntu1) mantic; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian unstable (LP: #2023301). Remaining changes:
    - Add aa-get-connection-apparmor-security-context.patch: This is not
      intended for upstream inclusion. It implements a bus method
      (GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext) to get a connection's AppArmor
      security context but upstream D-Bus has recently added a generic way of
      getting a connection's security credentials (GetConnectionCredentials).
      Ubuntu should carry this patch until packages in the archive are moved
      over to the new, generic method of getting a connection's credentials.
    - Add dont-stop-dbus.patch: Don't stop D-Bus in the service unit.
    - Rework ubuntu/dont-stop-dbus.patch to actually make dbus.service _and_
      dbus.socket to not be part of the shutdown transaction. And yet make
      it possible to still stop/kill/restart dbus.service if one really
      wants to, because it is stuck and stopped responding to any
      commands. This allows allows to restart dbus.service with
      needrestart. However a finalrd hook might still be needed, to kill
      dbus-daemon for good, once we pivot off rootfs.
    - Rework d/p/ubuntu/dont-stop-dbus.patch to avoid a deadlock during boot
      (LP #1936948)
    - debian/dbus.postinst, debian/rules: Don't start D-Bus on package
      installation, as that doesn't work any more with dont-stop-dbus.patch.
      Instead, start dbus.socket in postinst, which will then start D-Bus
      on demand after package installation.
    - Prevent dbus from being restarted on upgrade (LP #1962036)
    - git configuration changes for Ubuntu (d/gbp.conf, d/.gitignore)
  * Removed obsoleted patches:
    - d/p/u/concrete-dbus-socket.patch: Add the "real" path used by the apparmor
      autopkgtest to the apparmor profile in the test
      [merged upstream in 1.14.6]
    - d/control: Add M-A: foreign to the new dbus-{session,system}-bus-common
      packages to permit the resolver to use them to satisfy i386 dependencies
      [merged in debian in 1.14.6-1]

dbus (1.14.6-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream stable release
    - Fixes a denial of service issue that is not relevant for the way
      we compile dbus in Debian
  * d/copyright: Update
  * Standards-Version: 4.6.2 (no changes required)
  * d/control: Mark dbus-*-bus-common as Multi-Arch: foreign.
    Thanks to Dave Jones / Ubuntu
  * d/upstream/metadata: Update Gitlab URLs to preferred format
  * Drop migration path from very old debug symbol packages
  * Avoid explicitly specifying -Wl,--as-needed linker flag,
    which is the default with Debian 12 toolchains
  * Remove version constraints unnecessary since Debian 10

Binary packages built by this source

dbus: simple interprocess messaging system (system message bus)

 D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
 Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in
 terms of complexity.
 .
 D-Bus supports broadcast messages, asynchronous messages (thus
 decreasing latency), authentication, and more. It is designed to be
 low-overhead; messages are sent using a binary protocol, not using
 XML. D-Bus also supports a method call mapping for its messages, but
 it is not required; this makes using the system quite simple.
 .
 It comes with several bindings, including GLib, Python, Qt and Java.
 .
 This package provides a fully-functional D-Bus system bus with activation
 support, used for communication between system services, and depends on
 most of the other components of the reference implementation of D-Bus.
 .
 To provide a complete D-Bus session bus, install one of the packages
 that implement the dbus-session-bus virtual package, such as
 dbus-user-session. The recommended implementation is indicated by
 the default-dbus-session-bus virtual package.

dbus-1-doc: simple interprocess messaging system (documentation)

 D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
 Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in
 terms of complexity.
 .
 This package contains the API documentation for D-Bus, as well as
 the protocol specification.
 .
 See the dbus description for more information about D-Bus in general.

dbus-bin: simple interprocess messaging system (command line utilities)

 D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
 Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in
 terms of complexity.
 .
 This package contains the D-Bus command-line utilities such as dbus-send
 and dbus-monitor.

dbus-bin-dbgsym: debug symbols for dbus-bin
dbus-daemon: simple interprocess messaging system (reference message bus)

 D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
 Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in
 terms of complexity.
 .
 This package contains dbus-daemon, the reference implementation of a
 D-Bus message bus, and dbus-run-session, a utility to start a temporary
 session dbus-daemon in a constrained environment or for automated tests.
 .
 To provide a complete D-Bus session bus, install one of the packages
 that implement the dbus-session-bus virtual package, such as
 dbus-user-session. The recommended implementation is indicated by
 the default-dbus-session-bus virtual package.

dbus-daemon-dbgsym: debug symbols for dbus-daemon
dbus-dbgsym: debug symbols for dbus
dbus-session-bus-common: simple interprocess messaging system (session bus configuration)

 D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
 Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in
 terms of complexity.
 .
 This package contains the configuration files defining the behaviour of
 the D-Bus session bus, used for applications and per-user services.
 These are used by the reference implementation in the dbus package,
 and by the reimplementation in the dbus-broker package.
 .
 To provide a complete D-Bus session bus, install one of the packages
 that implement the dbus-session-bus virtual package, such as
 dbus-user-session. The recommended implementation is indicated by
 the default-dbus-session-bus virtual package.

dbus-system-bus-common: simple interprocess messaging system (system bus configuration)

 D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
 Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in
 terms of complexity.
 .
 This package contains the configuration files defining the behaviour of
 the D-Bus system bus, used for system services such as networking and
 storage management services. It is also responsible for creating the
 'messagebus' system user account used to run the system bus.
 These are used by the reference implementation in the dbus package,
 and by the reimplementation in the dbus-broker package.
 .
 To provide a complete D-Bus system bus, install one of the packages
 that implement the dbus-system-bus virtual package, such as dbus.
 The recommended implementation is indicated by the default-dbus-system-bus
 virtual package.

dbus-tests: simple interprocess messaging system (test infrastructure)

 D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
 Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in
 terms of complexity.
 .
 This package provides automated and manual tests for D-Bus, and the
 dbus-test-tool utility. It also provides copies of the D-Bus libraries and
 executables compiled with extra debug information and logging.
 .
 See the dbus package description for more information about D-Bus in general.

dbus-tests-dbgsym: debug symbols for dbus-tests
dbus-user-session: simple interprocess messaging system (systemd --user integration)

 D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
 Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in
 terms of complexity.
 .
 On systemd systems, this package opts in to the session model in which
 a user's session starts the first time they log in, and does not end
 until all their login sessions have ended. This model merges all
 parallel non-graphical login sessions (text mode, ssh, cron, etc.), and up
 to one graphical session, into a single "user-session" or "super-session"
 within which all background D-Bus services are shared.
 .
 Multiple graphical sessions per user are not currently supported in this
 mode; as a result, it is particularly suitable for gdm, which responds to
 requests to open a parallel graphical session by switching to the existing
 graphical session and unlocking it.
 .
 To retain dbus' traditional session semantics, in which login sessions
 are artificially isolated from each other, remove this package and install
 dbus-x11 instead.
 .
 See the dbus package description for more information about D-Bus in general.

dbus-x11: simple interprocess messaging system (X11 deps)

 D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
 Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in
 terms of complexity.
 .
 This package contains the dbus-launch utility, which automatically
 launches one D-Bus session bus per X11 display per user. If the
 dbus-user-session package is also installed, it takes precedence over
 this package.
 .
 See the dbus description for more information about D-Bus in general.

libdbus-1-3: simple interprocess messaging system (library)

 D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
 Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in
 terms of complexity.
 .
 D-Bus supports broadcast messages, asynchronous messages (thus
 decreasing latency), authentication, and more. It is designed to be
 low-overhead; messages are sent using a binary protocol, not using
 XML. D-Bus also supports a method call mapping for its messages, but
 it is not required; this makes using the system quite simple.
 .
 It comes with several bindings, including GLib, Python, Qt and Java.
 .
 The message bus daemon can be found in the dbus-daemon package.

libdbus-1-3-dbgsym: debug symbols for libdbus-1-3
libdbus-1-dev: simple interprocess messaging system (development headers)

 D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
