Package: libbusiness-us-usps-webtools-perl Version: 1.124-1 Severity: grave Tags: upstream Justification: renders package unusable Forwarded: https://github.com/ssimms/business-us-usps-webtools/issues/2
USPS is sending notices that HTTP access will be turned off shortly, in favor of HTTPS. Given that is a web service that will break in the wild, in addition to a regular update for unstable, we should update buster (and stretch) via stable-updates (and oldstable-updates). I can confirm that a package built with a simple s/http/https/ replacement works with a live USPS account, at least on buster. Note that since buster, the module has been rewritten to use Mojo::UserAgent instead of LWP::UserAgent. -- Ivan Kohler President and Head Geek, Freeside Internet Services, Inc. http://freeside.biz/ Debian GNU/Linux developer | CPAN author | pet person | ski addict
