Dear Debian devs -

Of note for Debian maintainers who might be making a 2.5.1 release: building
the release tarball by itself will fail. There was a decision upstream to
move the xdgmime test dependency to a submodule, and (as yet), the
dependency is not captured in the release tarball.

The solution, if you are building from release tarballs, is to build and
install without tests.

See https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xdg/shared-mime-info/-/work_items/271
for this detail, and another approach for online builds.


    regards,
    Andrew
