Hi Release Team,

Please allow mandos to migrate into testing and subsequent freeze.  The
mandos package was removed because libgnutls30 3.6.0 had removed
functionality which Mandos depended on, but libgnutls30 3.6.6, with
suitable replacement functionality, was not released until a few weeks
ago, and we (also being upstream) had to scramble to implement a new
protocol using the new GnuTLS features.  This was done on this past
Sunday (with a few more releases done on Saturday to fix minor bugs).
We would have done it sooner after the package removal, but we needed
GnuTLS 3.6.6, which *is* going into buster.

It seems a pity to lose the mandos package after 10 years in Debian
entirely because of the bad timing of GnuTLS 3.6.6 and the Debian freeze
being so close.

I brought this up on IRC #debian-release, and issue with the packaging
(#922202) was revealed, but it was easily fixed since the offending code
was only for backports, so a new version (1.8.3-3) has been uploaded
with the relevant code simply removed.  We are prepared to do any
further required changes to the package (and/or upstream) as needed.

Although we understand that the RC issue in you package was caused by
an new version of your build dependency, but unfortunately the solution
came too late in the release cycle and we will not unblock your package.
