Debian Patches
Status for python3.14/3.14.0-5
| Patch | Description | Author | Forwarded | Bugs | Origin | Last update |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| disable-sem-check.diff | Debian: Don't autodetect whether semephores are present Assume working semaphores, don't rely on running kernel for the check. This is not something that's approriate for us to detect at build time. Potentially forwadable, if redesigned. |
not-needed | ||||
| multiarch.diff | Debian: Configure multiarch tuple. 1. Expose multiarchsubdir in sysconfig. Some packages in Debian are depending on this. 2. Install the .pc file into the multiarch path. |
no | ||||
| ensurepip-disabled.diff | Disable ensurepip for the system installation We have a python3-pip package, for users who want pip. We just need ensurepip to seed pip in virtual environments. |
not-needed | ||||
| destshared-location.diff | Keep the lib-dynload dir in the same place when configuring with --libdir=/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH) The C extensions already have multiarch paths in their filenames. |
no | ||||
| min-codeop-traceback.diff | Debian: Degrade traceback gracefully without codeop python3.X-minimal includes traceback but not codeop. We don't need suggestions in python3.X-minimal. |
not-needed | ||||
| min-difflib-argparse.diff | Debian: Degrade argparse gracefully without difflib python3.X-minimal doesn't include difflib, so don't offer suggestions. | not-needed | ||||
| min-gettext-argparse.diff | Debian: Degrade argparse gracefully without gettext python3.X-minimal includes argparse but not gettext. Use a fallback noop gettext, if it can't be imported. |
not-needed | ||||
| min-gettext-getopt.diff | Debian: Degrade getopt gracefully without gettext python3.X-minimal includes getopt but not gettext. Use a fallback noop gettext, if it can't be imported. |
not-needed | ||||
| min-gettext-optparse.diff | Debian: Degrade optparse gracefully without gettext python3.X-minimal includes optparse but not gettext. Use a fallback noop gettext, if it can't be imported. |
not-needed | ||||
| min-multiprocessing-compileall.diff | Avoid tripping over the multiprocessing import in compileall Minimal includes compileall but not multiprocessing. | not-needed | ||||
| min-ntpath-pathlib.diff | ntpath is not in python-minimal, replace module-level imports with local imports in functions that actually require ntpath. | not-needed | ||||
| min-pyrepl.diff | _pyrepl (and its dependencies) are not shipped in -minimal Fall back to the basic REPL. | not-needed | ||||
| makefile-bootstrap.diff | # DP: needs forwarding. bootstrap python fails with a compiler defaulting to -fPIE, # DP: then setting CFLAGS_NODIST and LDFLAGS_NODIST to -fno-PIE. Needs forwarding. |
no | ||||
| test-freeze-strip-libdir.diff | [PATCH] Strip absolute --libdir paths from configure args in test_freeze We are trying to install into a prefix, any absolute path would not necessarily be writeable. e.g. if Python is configured with --libdir=/usr/lib/$(MULTIARCH)/ during a Debian build. |

| git-updates.diff | Updates from the 3.14 branch (until 2025-12-01). We pick the latest updates from the maintainance branch, and carry them in a patch, rather than creating and uploading uploading a new .orig tarball. # git diff --no-renames ebf955df7a89ed0c7968f79faec1de49f61ed7cb 9cb5a93e074b20d415bf77b8b48f6364a2faf69c | filterdiff -x ?/.hgignore -x ?/.hgeol -x ?/.hgtags -x ?/.hgtouch -x ?/.gitignore -x ?/.gitattributes -x '?/.github/*' -x '?/.git*' -x ?/.codecov.yml -x ?/.travis.yml -x ?/configure --remove-timestamps diff --git a/.devcontainer/devcontainer.json b/.devcontainer/devcontainer.json index 64c85c1101e..fb11c82bb96 100644 |

| deb-locations.diff | Debian: Adjust locations of directories to debian policy | not-needed | ||||
| distutils-install-layout.diff | Debian: Add a distutils option --install-layout=deb This option: - installs into $prefix/dist-packages instead of $prefix/site-packages. - doesn't encode the python version into the egg name. . We install modules into dist-packages so that a local admin can build their own cpython from source, and they won't see each others' installed modules. This keeps Debian packaged applications working correctly, isolated from the local cpython. . Customize site.py to import from Debian's dist-packages layout. |
not-needed | ||||
| sysconfig-debian-schemes.diff | This adds two schemes: 1. deb_system: Debian's installed Python layout, with modules in dist-packages shared across Python versions. 2. posix_local: A clone of posix_prefix that includes a built-in local prefix for the dist-packages and binary paths. We default to this to redict local installations into /usr/local. |
no | ||||
| tkinter-import.diff | Suggest installation of python3-tk package We split Tk out into a separate binary package. Help users who try to import it, without it installed. |
not-needed | ||||
| gdbm-import.diff | Debian: Suggest installation of python3-gdbm package We split gdbm out into a separate binary package. Help users who try to import it, without it installed. |
not-needed | ||||
| link-opt.diff | Call the linker with -O1 -Bsymbolic-functions We do symbolic-functions as policy in Ubuntu. Could be forwarded in the form of a configure flag. |
no | ||||
| setup-modules.diff | Configure linking for C-library wrapping modules Use the system C libraries, rather than sources bundled with cPython, or anything from /usr/local. This is for performance, to avoid unnecessary C extension imports at start-up. |
not-needed | ||||
| profiled-build.diff | Ignore errors in the profile task. This is a rewrite of the profile task. We run the tests sequentially, and only once at a time. |
no | ||||
| langpack-gettext.diff | Ubuntu: Support separate langpack packages Support alternative gettext tree in /usr/share/locale-langpack; if a file is present in both trees, prefer the newer one. Ubuntu collates gettext from packages on the DVD into language packs, to reduce disk-space on the image. This is Ubuntu-Specific. |
not-needed | ||||
| stable-abi-multiarch.diff | [PATCH 1/3] gh-122917 Allow stable API extensions to include a multiarch tuple in the filename This permits stable ABI extensions for multiple architectures to be co-installed into the same directory, without clashing with each other, the same way (non-stable ABI) regular extensions can. It is listed below the current .abi3 suffix because setuptools will select the first suffix containing .abi3, as the target filename. We do this to protect older Python versions predating this patch. |

| gchead-alignment.diff | [PATCH] gh-127545: Add _Py_ALIGNED_DEF(N, T) and use it for PyObject (GH-135209) * Replace _Py_ALIGN_AS(V) by _Py_ALIGNED_DEF(N, T) This is now a common façade for the various `_Alignas` alternatives, which behave in interesting ways -- see the source comment. The new macro (and MSVC's `__declspec(align)`) should not be used on a variable/member declaration that includes a struct declaraton. A workaround is to separate the struct definition. Do that for `PyASCIIObject.state`. * Specify minimum PyGC_Head and PyObject alignment As documented in InternalDocs/garbage_collector.md, the garbage collector stores flags in the least significant two bits of the _gc_prev pointer in struct PyGC_Head. Consequently, this pointer is only capable of storing a location that's aligned to a 4-byte boundary. Encode this requirement using _Py_ALIGNED_DEF. This patch fixes a segfault in m68k, which was previously investigated by Adrian Glaubitz here: https://lists.debian.org/debian-68k/2024/11/msg00020.html https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1087600 Original patch (using the GCC-only Py_ALIGNED) by Finn Thain. |

| man-page-fixes.diff | [PATCH] Manpage formatting tweaks Following on from GH-132291 this is the second part of the patch from https://bugs.debian.org/1101406 This tweaks the formatting of a few bits of the manpage. |

| hppa-ifunc.patch | [PATCH] Avoid TestNullDlsym hanging on HP-PA glibc has no support for IFUNC on HP PA RISC yet. Rather than waiting for an "OK" that we'll never get, skip the test. |

| m68k-gcc-15.patch | m68k: Avoid a SIGILL when built with GCC 15 Reported to GCC upstream, but determined to be a cpython bug. | John Paul Adrian Glaubitz <glaubitz@debian.org>, Michael Karcher <debian@mkarcher.dialup.fu-berlin.de> | no | |||
