[ Reason ]
There is an annoying issue (#1108675) that renders the program partly
unusable as it renders the "show" functionality to read pastes in a
privatebin unusable. This was introduced by changes in golang >= 1.21.
The new upstream release 2.1.1 fixes this issue and was just uploaded to
unstable by a sponsor.
[ Impact ]
Users can create pastes using this tool, but can't read pastes without
opening them in the web browser. But the reason to install this CLI tool
is to not have to use the web browser for interacting with privatebin
instances.
[ Tests ]
The package was built and the normal autopkgtests have been run,
additionally I manually tested it on a trixie installation by creating
and showing several pastes on different privatebin instances.
[ Risks ]
As I have tested it manually I see little risks for this update. The
worst thing that might happen is the tool is not working and people have
to use the browser instead.
[ Checklist ]
[x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
[x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
[ Changes ]
- The way the tool interacts with GCM cipher creation was changed to
comply with the interfaces Go 1.21+ offers.
[ Other info ]
Nothing I can think of.
