** Summary changed:

- gist-paste command gives e-maled error message
+ gist-paste command is broken in this version

** Summary changed:

- gist-paste command is broken in this version
+ gist-paste command is too old and can no longer authenticate

** Description changed:

- Please update the `gist` package to the latest version in focal's
- repository. The current version for focal has a `gist-paste` command
- that, whenever it's used in a way that requires authentication to
- GitHub, causes GitHub to send an e-mail to me complaining that I used an
- outdated authentication method.
+ Please update the `gist` package to the latest version in the
+ repositories for 18.04 and 20.04. The current versions in those releases
+ have a `gist-paste` command that can no longer authenticate to GitHub,
+ making the package useless.
  
  I believe hirsute uses a fixed version.
