Package: tin
Version: 1:2.6.5~20250409-1
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss

When running tin after the upgrade to the new version, some of the
user configuration is removed (I could see that from a backup):
  * in .tin/attributes: user comments (including commented rules).
  * in .tin/filter, an expired rule, i.e. with a "time" parameter
    and an old time (even though the rule has expired, the user may
    want to keep information from it).

Such data has no influence on the behavior of tin, but this may be
valuable information written by the user (e.g. explaining why a rule
has been added or a commented rule that the user may want to re-add
in the future) and must be kept in some form.
