The argument is the same, both are needed for GKE stuff. Apparently for some proxying stuff or something.
** Description changed: [Availability] Available in universe, built on all architectures. [Rationale] - pv shows progress reports for data passing through a pipeline. It has recently become a requirement for GKE and thus should be in main. + socat is a tool like netcat, but with support for ssl. It has recently become a requirement for GKE and thus should be in main. [Security] The tracker lists two open CVEs, but it is wrong - they have been fixed quite some time ago. [Quality assurance] - Upstream has a test suite, but it is not run. socat has an important bug in Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=793384 - it uses to few bits for DH parameters by default. + Upstream has a test suite, but it is not run. socat has an important bug in Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=793384 - it uses to few bits for DH parameters by default. But that was marked as fixed, so OK. [Dependencies] Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 10), libssl-dev, libwrap0-dev. [Standards compliance] [Maintenance] The package is relatively small, but since it interfaces with (potentially SSL) sockets, it might need some security updates. Otherwise it can be kept in sync with Debian.
