Hello Debian Backports Team, I would like to request the backporting of liburcu and libblkid to Debian Bookworm. - liburcu is available as liburcu8t64 in Trixie and Sid (version 0.14.1). https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=liburcu8t64 - libblkid version 2.40.4-1 exists in Trixie, and 2.40.4-2 in Sid. https://packages.debian.org/trixie/libblkid-dev I have successfully rebuilt the source package for liburcu8t64 in a Bookworm environment after downgrading the dpkg-dev build-requirement. However, during installation, dpkg reported that liburcu8t64 (new) breaks liburcu8, which is a dependency for several packages (e.g., xfsprogs, glusterfs). After installing it with --force, xfsprogs continued to function without issues. I don't know why liburcu8 change package name to liburcu8t64, maybe using old name is safe for Bookworm. Both of these packages are necessary for compiling bcachefs-tools in its recent versions. Would it be possible to have them backported to Bookworm? Thank you for your time and consideration!
