Package: irssi
Version: 0.8.12-7
Severity: normal

The latest security update for irssi breaks the use of SSL with
proxies, because irssi tries to check the SSL cert's CN against the
server name instead of against the proxy hostname as discussed in here:
http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/irssi/+bug/565182

This might impact testing and unstable and needs to be verified.
