** Description changed: Hello. The Lets Encrypt project is still in Public Beta, and its programs, libraries, utilities, and other components are under constant and rapid development and as such has a rapidly-changing code base, which ultimately requires the code to remain fairly up to date to continue working with the system as it progresses. Therefore, as time progresses, the package here and upstream (https://github.com/letsencrypt/letsencrypt) functionality will diverge more and more. Maintaining this program in the repositories may lead to issues, INCLUDING the loss of upstream support going forward. - An example of obsoleteness is observed in `letsencrypt-renewer` which no - longer exists or functions, and is provided by the package. This is not - included upstream, and does not actually function as intended in Xenial - - instead, one runs `letsencrypt-auto renew` or similar to renew LE - certificates, and does not have its own "Renewer" function outside of - that as its own binary or script. - - - I propose removing the Lets Encrypt client and libraries from the repositories until such time they have a stable, not-rapidly-developed release. Therefore, I request the removal of the python-letsencrypt package from the Xenial repositories, and imposing of a sync blacklist at this time. + I propose removing the Lets Encrypt client and libraries from the + repositories until such time they have a stable, not-rapidly-developed + release.
