Hello Alexandrus, It appears that your mail user agent (possibly webmail) is encrypting emails to me when you "reply all" to the bug; the effect is non-public. It may be that the only way to fix that effect is to either 1. not CC me (just send to the bug) 2. Make that interface forget my key, because it always encrypts when a key is available. 3. Maybe there's a config toggle that disables unconditional encryption, for use with mailing lists?

Sorry for the later reply, it's morning here. You're welcome! :) No worries with taking time to reply, and feel free to ping me if I take to long to reply. >> "Do you intend to continue to maintain mini-httpd at this location (Vcs location), or do you have a new one in mind?" >> > Do you have any preferences/suggestions regarding this question? > I am comfortable with git so forking on git wouldn't be a problem. I have no remote to share so far. Since you're comfortable with git, please consider creating a Salsa account and continuing to maintain the package in the Debian (previously collab-maint) group. Here's more info on what that means: https://wiki.debian.org/Salsa/Doc#Collaborative_Maintenance:_.22Debian.22_group It's ok if you don't want to; however, in this case we'll need to update the Vcs links in the package. >> "On the topic of work, has upstream resolved any of these old bugs" >> > The latest upstream release is still mini_httpd-1.30.tar.gz.

What I meant is that 1.30 isn't that old compared to Bug #437932 (14 Aug 2007), #516307 from 2009. Those look like they may have already been fixed upstream. Then there are ones like #491078 that may have been fixed in Debian and/or upstream, or could be fixed in the next upload to Debian. > As context, I've worked professionally on patches for mini-httpd for about 9 months, adding PAM support and AAA authentication. Sadly, the license of my work is evidently proprietary. If I have the time I can try to tackle all the bugs alone, as I know everything that's happening in mini_httpd.c. I'll try mailing Jef (from ACME) to see if any fixes are in the pipeline. Nice, it sounds like you're the ideal maintainer for Debian's mini-httpd! It also sounds like you already know work to get things merged upstream whenever possible. > I might need a wee bit of assistance with lintian errors/Debian > conventions as I mainly come from RPM land.

Oh good, you're already using lintian :) Please take care to use a recent version like 2.116.3 or 2.115.1~bpo11+1 (bullseye backport). Run it with the "--info" argument to get explanations. There is currently one warning (W) that needs to be fixed before this package is ready to upload. > I'm looking forward to your input and have a great weekend ! Thank you, I hope yours was as good as mine! Regards, Nicholas
