Permission to update OpenVPN with a patch

[Alberto Gonzalez Iniesta <agi@inittab.org>]

Hi there,

I've been contacted by a big Debian & OpenVPN user about a bug present
in Stretch's OpenVPN version and fixed 2 minor reviews later. The bug
was reported upstream [1] and results in clients not able to use the VPN
after several reconnects.

The patch seems nice and clear [2] (and applies cleanly). The bug
impact could be substantial.

Would an upload of OpenVPN with it applied be accepted?


Thanks,

Alberto
