uninstallable and unbuildable.

I had X-Debbugs-Cc'ed sa-exim@pdo on this report. I will also open a rc
bug suggesting sa-exim removal to hash this out properly.

I am probably missing something, but as far as I see it, your packages
can't migrate to testing/buster because it would make sa-exim
uninstallable. If I am right, please coordinate with the maintainer of
sa-exim (in CC). At least at this moment they should agree that it is
alright to remove sa-exim from buster. I am not seeing any serious bugs
reported against sa-exim so they may not be aware of the issue.

Bug#926878: unblock: exim4/4.92-5

2019-04-11 Thread Andreas Metzler 
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Please unblock package exim4:

In the first place it pulls multiple upgrades from upstream's
exim-4.92+fixes branch where important post-release fixes are published.

The second notable change is related to sa-exim. Exim in Debian was
patched to allow dlopening a localscan() module. The single consumer of
this patch in Debian is sa-exim. (The patch also originates there.)

The patch in Debian has been nonfunctional in unstable for quite some
time (4.92~RC2-1/experimental/18 Dec, 4.92~RC3-1 unstable/26 Dec and
buster/03 Jan). The issue only popped up end of March on the upstream
user support ML.

Looking at the state of sa-exim (dead upstream since 2006 and buggy: 
https://lists.exim.org/lurker/message/20180726.113354.6d03efde.en.html
#879687) we have decided stop patching exim, which resulted in 4.92-5,
which
- improves the example/docs for content-scanning in exim without sa-exim
- drops the abovementioned patch and the virtual Provides for
  exim4-localscanapi-2.0 and also drops the exim-dev packages (only
  needed for sa-exim). Exim now also Conflicts with sa-exim.

unblock exim4/4.92-5
