Start building Ubuntu images so one could use salsa-ci.yml with proper RELEASE on Ubuntu packaging branches?

What do you people recon, should we extend Salsa-CI to also work on Ubuntu branches?

Currently when I prepare security updates to Ubuntu on e.g. branch https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-team/mariadb-server/-/tree/ubuntu-22.04 I don't run any CI on it at all. When a new Ubuntu release happens, I simply fork the new Ubuntu branches off the debian/latest branch and delete the salsa-ci.yml file.

Not having any CI for the Ubuntu branches makes me worry that some stupid mistakes might sneak in unnoticed.

To add Ubuntu RELEASE support we would at least need to extend all base image builds to have Ubuntu releases, and at least the Lintian images as well. This would add a bunch of maintenance and storage overhead. Would it be worth it?

Please +1 if you would like to use Salsa-CI to vet your Ubuntu uploads.
