That's OK - Helen just helped me work around the filter. I've posted a
short thread here: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=278847

Thanks for your support of this. Popcon shows only 78 installations.

'Upstream' here. Apologies that you got hit by a spam filter (I'm
afraid we were getting hit quite aggressively by first time link
spammers which is probably the cause of your filtering). Thank you
very much for trying to get in touch with us.

I've been cc'd on the Moodle debian bugs for quite some time and i'm
afraid that this is a bit of a cycle with the package. Quite some time
ago I was part of a team to keep up with keeping the package in order,
but eventually could not keep on top of it - then others like Tomasz
Muras and Thijs Kinkhorst have valiantly tried to get it in order. See
#494642 #647489 #747084 etc.

So much as it saddens me - I think this is the right course of action.
There is little evidence to suggest that the package is widely used
which makes it even less motivating for contributors for the
significant amount of work it takes to keep up with our wide ranging
upstream security fixes.

cheers,

Dan Poltawski
