Hi,
as per bug #1064979 python-cryptography was orphaned. Actually the
process of orphaninig is defined differently[1] by setting QA team as
maintainer. In this case DPT remains maintainer but there is no
Uploader specified any more. I personally will not add my ID as
Uploader. I have added those team members who did uploads in the last
year in CC.
I tried to do some bug squashing anyway. Since the latest version was
requested in bug #1063771 and this new version also closes #1064778
(CVE-2024-26130) (the other CVE-bug should have been closed in previous
upload) I decided to inject latest upstream, adapted the patches and
pushed to Git. Unfortunately the package does not build as you can
verify in Salsa CI[1].
I admit I have no clue how to fix this but I hope someone can take over
from here. I guess uploading to experimental first and see how it
plays nicely with its lots of rdepends makes sense here.
Kind regards
Andreas.
PS: I would have expected that to orphan a team maintained package the
team mailing list would have been CCed in the bug report.
