[Bug 1866448] [NEW] Feature freeze exception for opendkim 2.11.0~beta2-2

 

Public bug reported:

Dear Release Team,

I would like to request a FeatureFreeze exception for opendkim
2.11.0~beta2-2, if that is acceptable and possible and not too much work
for you.

Version 2.11.0~beta2-2 is a bit of a milestone, after the package being
in an orphaned state for a while. Especially some aspects of
configuration that have caused confusion in various places over the
years have finally been resolved. I and opendkim users would welcome
having this version in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

Debian changelog:

opendkim (2.11.0~beta2-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Bump debhelper compat to compatibility level 12, necessitating many small
    changes in .install files and similar to silence dh_missing warnings.
  * General packaging overhaul:
    - Package synopses have been streamlined.
    - opendkim-tools: System utilities have moved from /usr/bin to /usr/sbin.
    - opendkim-tools: A few secondary statistics utilities are now included.
    - Various additional documentation is included.
    - Recommends: Promote opendkim-tools to opendkim recommends, because it is
      indispensable for initial setup and almost always installed together
      with opendkim.
    - Suggests: Drop unbound from opendkim suggests, because opendkim already
      uses libunbound, suggesting the standalone service may be misleading.
    - Remnants of obsolete (unused) "reputation" packages have been purged.
  * Additional patches:
    - opendkim-genzone: Fix inverted logic with subdomains (after a patch
      originally by Andreas Schulze).
    - opendkim: Suppress an empty pair of brackets logged to syslog.
  * Drop redundant specification of default config ("-x /etc/opendkim.conf")
    in systemd and init services.
  * Rewrite /etc/opendkim.conf and discourage use of /etc/default/opendkim
    (Closes: #861169).
  * postinst: Make script more robust when expected directories are not
    present (LP: #1787307).

I myself am using this version already without any problems.

Thank you for your consideration!
