Package: release.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:certmonger
X-Debbugs-Cc: certmonger at packages.debian.org
User: release.debian.org at packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
Severity: normal

Please unblock package certmonger.

[ Reason ]
This reverts a change in -1 that was done in order to work around the 
fact that Debian doesn't use a shared /etc/pki/nssdb, and that turned 
out to be unnecessary after upstream fixed the original issue and 
doesn't need an nssdb anymore.

The other changes are minor, fixes a crossbuild issue and disables 
support for insecure DSA keys.

There is one undocumented change which was due to a MR from salsa:
https://salsa.debian.org/freeipa-team/certmonger/-/merge_requests/3

but it just bumps a build-dep. Running 'gbp dch' was easy to miss, as I 
usually include the dch entry in my commits.

[ Impact ]
Allows (free)ipa-server-install to succeed without racing to a failure, 
this can be seen in the CI results using the package from experimental 
(testing/unstable only has the client):

https://ci.debian.net/packages/f/freeipa/unstable/amd64/

Having a fixed package in bookworm would allow backporting 
freeipa-server if need be.

[ Risks ]
Minimal, certmonger itself doesn't need the nssdb that was created in -1 
so reverting it here shouldn't break any systems that have -1.

[ Checklist ]
     [ ] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
     [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
     [x] attach debdiff against the package in testing
