I'm adding the security team to CC to give them a heads-up because the snort
update is also relevant for stable and oldstable. I'm not allowed to push to
your Git repository on salsa. I will just attach my debian directory to the RC
bug reports next. 

First of all I decided to package 2.9.20 because this version seems less
intrusive than the new 3.x series. For better long-term support it would be
better to go for 3.x but I leave this decision to you. I have refreshed all
patches and dropped the autoconf, fix_compile_errors and
fix_ftbfs_in_manual.tex patches because the package builds fine without them.
In debhelper-compat 13 auto-reconfiguration is the default now.

There are still a couple of Lintian errors and warnings about snort which are
also present in the current unstable version. I only removed the Windows
binaries from the source tarball so far.

I didn't touch anything else in your package. You just need to run uscan and
remove the dll files again if you want to upload yourself. If you don't have
time for that, let me know, and I'll take care of the rest.

Best,

Markus

P.S.: Your VCS repository is not up-to-date, the last update is missing.
