ELTS report August 2025 ======================= 1. edk2: I could not resolve the detected regression and decided to move forward by backporting edk2 from bullseye. The security update is not complete yet but provided there are no regressions version 2020.11 will be available soon. 2. tomcat9: I continued the investigation into the regressions caused by the intended upgrade to version 9.0.107 of tomcat9. While the server itself is working as expected, the build failures in lucene-solr and tomcatjss persist. One likely root cause is the older version of the bnd tool in Debian buster which could be resolved by backporting a newer version from bullseye. Both packages are not supported though and users of ELTS should not be affected. If we can narrow down the underlying problem even more and rule out negative effects on the tomcat9 server, we should be able to release the update soon.
