[Bug 2112059] [NEW] Merge popularity-contest from Debian Unstable for questing

 

Public bug reported:

Scheduled-For: ubuntu-25.06
Ubuntu: 1.77ubuntu1
Debian Unstable: 1.78

A new release of popularity-contest is available for merging from Debian
Unstable.

If it turns out this needs a sync rather than a merge, please change the
tag 'dcr-merge' to 'dcr-sync', and (optionally) update the title as
desired.

If this merge pulls in a new upstream version, also consider adding an
entry to the questing Release Notes:
