Bug#907135: [Box Backup] Debian now requires 2048bit RSA keys

Hi Reinhard, I don't blame you. I think that for Debian to upgrade a package, changing a global setting, break some of its dependencies, and then kick out the resulting broken packages a month later (nearly a year before the expected release date) seems pretty harsh. In this case it took me 4.5

Bug#907135: [Box Backup] Debian now requires 2048bit RSA keys

Agreed! In this case, the bug was reported on Aug 24 2018 by Adrian Bunk. It was removed about a months later, namely on September 23, for failing to build from source. Four weeks is arguably quite fast. Or quite slow, depending on whom you talk to. I probably could have reacted by disabling the

Bug#907135: [Box Backup] Debian now requires 2048bit RSA keys

Hi all, It seems a bit egregious to kick out packages that were broken by a minor version upgrade in one of their dependencies (which after all is not supposed to break anything), without any warning, let alone time to fix such a complex issue properly. I hope that Debian will consider

Hi Reinhard, Presumably the many other affected packages have had similar difficulty in developing a comprehensive solution? I also wasn't aware of a time constraint. Not that it would have helped me much, as I was moving house, but it would have been good to know that there was a risk of not

Hi Reinhard and all, Good news, I have just finished fixing this problem, and merged it into master with https://github.com/boxbackup/boxbackup/pull/36. Please could you cut a new Debian package release and see if the tests pass for you? Or if not, point me to the failure logs? If anyone wants
