Actually, it's the LTS team who marked it that way, but we follow the
decision of the security team in most cases.

But if you prepare an update nevertheless, you will have to release a DLA.

Looks like you managed to add yourself in dla-needed.txt in the mean time.

You request is perfect (even though you are not required to make any
request if you are the package maintainer).

In any case, I reviewed your debdiff and it looks good. Feel free to
proceed with the upload and the release of the DLA to
debian-backports-announce@lists.debian.org.

If you need sponsorship, please let us know.

Cheers,
