Package              : python-acme
Version              : 0.28.0-1~deb9u2 [stretch]
Importance           : high

python-acme is part of an implementation of the ACME protocol, as used
by the Let's Encrypt certification authority to issue TLS certificates.

The ACME protocol has deprecated support for the use of unauthenticated
GET requests in favour of authenticated POST requests. On November 1st,
Let's Encrypt's staging ACME v2 endpoint will stop supporting the older
protocol, with the production endpoint following at a later point. The
staging endpoint is used by applications such as certbot in order to
perform tests, including when testing renewals with '--dry-run'.

This update moves python-acme to use the newer protocol.

If you use python-acme, we strongly recommend that you install this
update.
