Severity: normal
Please unblock package fai
The changes from 5.8.1 to 5.8.3 are fixing the piuparts RC bug #924227.
In fai-mirror the hardcoded release name stretch was replaced by a
regex. In other configuration files stretch was now replaced by buster.
In conf/NFSROOT two package names were replaced by smaller
alternatives and I had to add the gpg package for the DEBIAN_10 and
DEBIAN_11 environments. Other changes are documentation updates.
