Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian....@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
X-Debbugs-Cc: forensics-ex...@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:forensics-extra

Please unblock package forensics-extra

[ Reason ]
forensics-extra (like forensics-all) is a metapackage to install several
tools to aid in forensics activities. Due an issue in reaver (see #1036809),
forensics-extra is marked for autoremoval. The solution was move reaver from
Depends field to Recommends field in forensics-extra. Consequently, the files
list-of-packages-extra, debian/control and debian/forensics-extra.README.Debian
were updated.

This metapackage is native and uses some scripts to generate a final
debian/control and a debian/forensics-extra.README.Debian. The
list-of-packages-extra file describes which packages will be put in
debian/control and where they will be put (Depends, Recommends, Suggests).
The debian/forensics-extra.README.Debian is a list of all packages on
forensics-extra and their short descriptions.

[ Impact ]
The impact for the user if the unblock isn't granted is that package
forensics-extra will not available in next stable release (Bookworm).

[ Tests ]
Considering that this is a metapackage, no great tests are needed. The package
has a CI test and the Salsa CI is activated too. The package pass in CI,
piuparts, etc.

There is a script in forensics-extra called find-deps.sh (available in a branch
in Salsa, not merged yet, but functional). This script ensures that no other
package is affected by reaver in forensics-extra.

[ Risks ]
No risks. This is a trivial change in a metapackage.

[ Checklist ]
  [x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [x] attach debdiff against the package in testing

[ Other info ]
No more info needed.
