Great news, thanks a lot for the summary!

So we could close this ITP (#960788, since in the end no new source
package will be introduced) in favor of #949019 and #962134, which
could themselves be merged, right? I'm happy to do the BTS paperwork
if this makes sense to you folks :)

This is great news too. With my Tails hat on I'll suppose this will
take some time on the Debian/Lenovo side.

Cheers!
