 Dear release team,

 Please unblock package nagios-nrpe.

 The update is documentation only. It's done to address #547092: SSL
 support
 is fundamentally broken in NRPE, which cannot be fixed easily (breaking
 the protocol and hence compatibility with non-Debian npre hosts),

 The update changes the documentation to warn against using the option.
 This
 downgrades the bug to an important functionality problem, but not RC
 since
 NRPE is usable securely without SSL in many cases.

 Hold on please :). We agreed on IRC earlier that morning to wait for the
 coming security update.

 Thanks
 Alex



 Alright, un-unblocked.

Can you clarify? Having another security update coming doesn't preclude
the current package from migrating, does it?


Cheers,
Thijs

In the particular case, I do not really care which way this is done
since the current fix is fairly simple and documentation only.
  Had the changes been more complex I would probably have insisted on
taking the current changes as they were and the other fix in a separate
upload[1].

I merely reverted my unblock because of Alexander's Hold on please
[...], which sounded like there was not an agreement on how this case
should be handled.
