Upstream versioning scheme LTS SRUs
The APT developers (https://launchpad.net/~deity) maintain upstream stable branches for LTS releases of Ubuntu. These will be uploaded to LTS releases using upstream version numbers and no ubuntu downstream version components. These branches are shared with other downstreams like OpenEmbedded, however they are not influenced by other downstream needs.
The APT release management ensures that there is no conflict in versioning between Debian and Ubuntu uploads. There is only one versioned branch with one designated target release.
Each upstream release undergoes a dedicated CI pipeline that runs the test suite as both root and a normal user whereas the autopkgtests only cover the root portion.
Requesting the SRU
Apart from upstream versioning by uploads from https://launchpad.net/~deity team, we otherwise follow normal SRU procedure.
