Hello

I am sorry that I report this so close to Buster release but I just noticeed
that in the Debian Buster release notes it is said that Revelation is removed
from the Buster. Release notes suggests that passwords can be exported from
Revelation and then imported to keepass2 password manager. Unfortunately that
is not an option if you are blind or other visually impaired user like I am.
Keepass2 password manager is not accessible with the Orca screen reader. So it
is not accessible if you are visually impaired. I am still using Debian
Stretch, but this problem most likeyly applies to Buster too. I have tried
every graphical password manager I can find in Debian Stretch and Revelation
isthe only graphical password managerwhich is accessible with the Orca screen
reader. None of the other graphical password managers are accessible with the
Orca screen reader. So Revelation is really the only accessible graphical
password manager for the visually impaired users.

So now if Revelation password manager is is not in Buster then suddenly
visually impaired users have no way to store their passwords and no way to
access passwords already stored in Revelation.

This is not ok, it is not ok to remove Revelation from Debian when there is no
other accessible password manger and no way to use keepass2 because it is not
accessible with Orca screen reader.

Please include Revelation in Buster.
