Package: release.debian.org Severity: serious User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org Usertags: unblock Please unblock package xfce4-equake-plugin Please see related bugs: 856774 and 856827 I gave it severity "serious" since I assume it should reflect the severity of the initial bug, please change as appropriate. I initially programmed xfce4-equake-plugin to use unencrypted http access to the USGS site to download earthquake data (from simple CSV ascii files). However USGS has moved to encrypted access only, this change was announced mid February 2017 to take effect March 1 2017. This means the xfce4-equake-plugin as it is right now will not be able to download data. Other functionality is unaffected, but since it can not download data it will not be displaying any additional information in the xfce4 panel. Just like a weather plugin which stopped showing the weather. I have created a fix that will alow it to use encrypted https access. It uses libcurl for that and attached a debdiff. Thank you for your consideration. unblock xfce4-equake-plugin/1.3.8-1
