[pkg-netfilter-team] Bug#991309: Copy from IRC

[Christian Ehrhardt]

I wanted to document somewhere that this is a pre-acknowledged NMU,
just in case someone else looks at it and wonders.

[14:08] <cpaelzer> Hi, I've recently filed
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=991309 but Arturo
said (on the bug) that he is short of time. I wanted to ask the
release team about their jdgement if this is worth an NMU followed by
tests+unblock bug OR if that should be fine to wait after the release
[14:08] <cpaelzer> I'd appreciate an update on the bug, but otherwise
answer here and I can copy it over
[14:09] <arturo> thanks for paying attention to this cpaelzer
[14:51] <bunk> cpaelzer: (not a member of the release team) The
release team prefers to discuss this in bugs, "reportbug
release.debian.org" and then attach the debdiff from the bug. (looking
at the diff, I'd expect it gets accepted without problem)
[15:14] <cpaelzer> arturo: when prep the unblocker it is almost no
difference in the amount of work for me to also do an NMU of it to
unstable - are you (in general) ok with me doing that?
[15:15] <cpaelzer> arturo: and if so would you mind to branch off a
bullseye branch from
https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-netfilter-team/pkg-nftables/-/tags/debian%2F0.9.8-3
- if you do so I can throw you a MR to integrate (later if you want)
what I prepare for you
[15:35] <arturo> cpaelzer: yes to all (sorry, I'm having food ATM)

Also I can confirm that in the meantime the very same change was built
and tested fine in Ubuntu  [1] and migrated there. I know it isn't the
same, but it is one more bit of confidence that the change should be
ok.
