Package: release-notes
Severity: normal
Ipsec-tools has been removed from buster. As a security-sensitive package,
active upstream involvement is essential for this package, but it has been
lacking for some time. Users are encouraged to migrate to Libreswan, which has
broader protocol compatibility and an active upstream.
Thanks

Applied (with minor adaptation) in
https://salsa.debian.org/ddp-team/release-notes/commit/4e3caa9
Don't hesitate to discuss further improvements. Reopening the bug is the
way to go in that case, but I will probably also spot it otherwise.
