It's already packaged in git (https://salsa.debian.org/reiner/firejail), but not yet uploaded due to testing errors: https://salsa.debian.org/reiner/firejail/-/jobs/7331459

Nice.

but not yet uploaded due to testing errors:
https://salsa.debian.org/reiner/firejail/-/jobs/7331459

I see; I wasn't aware of that repository.

This job seems to produce a lot of testing errors that do not happen in the
GitHub CI.

From my experience with firejail tests in CI, they seem to be rather brittle;
would it make sense to skip them for the upload?

Do you need help with anything?

Yes, they are rather fragile. I've already split them in the past into tests are really fragile and allowed to fail and in a core set of tests that I thought should be always work. But even they are failing partially now. And I can't even reproduce it on my system. I'll probably mark all of them as "fragile". :|

If you are able to reproduce some failures and file tickets or so that would be nice (so they can be fixed in a future version). But I'll probably upload it anyways in the next days.

I'm kind of new to this, but it has been over a month, and it appears that the version still hasn't been updated in the PPA. Any news?

@krwudtke thanks for the reminder. i've now uploaded them to the PPA as well (except for the current development version, which should soon sync from Debian).

I could not reproduce the errors at all; they seemed to be very specific to
this environment.

So I created #6853, which should make it easier to debug them.

Closing the main issue as resolved.
