Hi,
sql-ledger just has another CVE[0]. Looking at the reports of 
the security issue and the discussion[1] in the BTS to me it 
is not really clear why documenting that this package is not 
supported by the security team is an option but removing it 
not. There are really alot of sql injection bugs in 
sql-ledger, there is a fork[2] where engaged people fix such 
stuff and there are 66 installations referring to popcon.

So why not just removing this software and file an RFP for 
ledgersmb?

I agree that writing this in the sql-ledger documentation 
would be better like the current state but people tend to 
don't read documentation (or package tags) and this does not 
make the code itself more secure.

Kind regards
Nico
