* License : MIT
Section : net
It builds those binary packages:
dropbear - transitional dummy package for dropbear-{run,initramfs}
dropbear-bin - lightweight SSH2 server and client - command line tools

The maintainer told me to go ahead a proceed with the NMU [0].
Changes since the last upload:
* Non-maintainer upload.
[ Matt Johnston ]
* New upstream release. (Closes: #775222.)
[ Guilhem Moulin ]
* debian/source/format: 3.0 (quilt)
* debian/compat: 9
* debian/control: bump Standards-Version to 3.9.6 (no changes necessary).
* debian/copyright: add machine-readable file.
* Split up package in dropbear-bin (binaries), dropbear-run (init scripts)
and dropbear-initramfs (initramfs integration). 'dropbear' is now a
transitional dummy package depending on on dropbear-run and
dropbear-initramfs. (Closes: #692932.)
* Refactorize the package using dh_* tools, including dh_autoreconf.
(Closes: #689618, #777324.)
* dropbear-run:
+ Add a status option to the /etc/init.d script.
+ Pass key files with -r not -d in /etc/init.d script. (Closes: #761143.)
+ Post-installation script: Generate missing ECDSA in addition to RSA and
DSS host keys. (Closes: #776976.)
* dropbear-initramfs:
+ Don't mark /usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf-hooks.d/dropbear as a
configuration file, since it violates the Debian Policy Manual section
10.7.2. (Regression from 2014.64-1.)
+ Delete debian/initramfs/premount-devpts, since /dev/pts in mounted by
init since initramfs-tools 0.94. (Closes: #632656.)
+ Auto-generate host keys in the postinstall script, not when runing
update-initramfs. Pass the '-R' option (via $PKGOPTION_dropbear_OPTION)
for the old behavior. Also, print fingerprint and ASCII art for
generated keys (if ssh-keygen is available).
+ Revert ad2fb1c and remove warning about changing host key. Users
shouldn't be encouraged to use the same keys in the encrypted partition
and in the initramfs. The proper fix is to use an alternative port or
UserKnownHostFile.
+ Set ~root to `mktemp -d "$DESTDIR/root-XXXXXX"` to avoid collisions with
$rootmnt. (Closes: #558115.)
+ Exit gracefully if $IP is 'none' or 'off'. (Closes: #692932.)
+ Start dropbear with flag -s to explicitly disable password logins.
+ Terminate all children before killing dropbear, to avoid stalled SSH
connections. (Closes: #735203.)
+ Run configure_networking in the foreground. (Closes: #584780, #626181,
#739519.)
+ Bring down interfaces and flush network configuration before existing
the ramdisk, to avoid misconfigured network in the regular kernel.
(Closes: #715048, #720987, #720988.)
+ Add a script '/bin/unlock' to the initramfs to make remote unlocking
easier and possibly as a forced-command restrictions in authorized_keys.
Cheers,

Guilhem.
