Source: libcrypt-dsa-perl
Version: 1.20-1
Severity: serious
Justification: not suitable for stable release
X-Debbugs-Cc: Dominic Hargreaves <[email protected]>, [email protected],

Hi
Cc'ing in particular Dominic if he wants to raise an objection.
Crypt::DSA is deprecated and should actually not be used anymore, has
security issues (which though got fixed so far).
I propose to still keep libcrypt-dsa-perl out of testing and not to
get included in forky. If Dominic agrees maybe even already remove it
from unstable/testing. There are no issues with the removal itself:
,---- [ dak rm --suite=unstable -n -R libcrypt-dsa-perl ]
| Will remove the following packages from unstable:
|
| libcrypt-dsa-perl | 1.21-1 | source, all
|
| Maintainer: Debian Perl Group <[email protected]>
|
| ------------------- Reason -------------------
|
| ----------------------------------------------
|
| Checking reverse dependencies...
| No dependency problem found.

And there is low and sinking popcon usage:

Salvatore
