Uploaded to unstable now.

I think at the moment we don't have people in the Debian GNOME team
maintaining backports. I guess you could give it a try if you commit
to maintaining the backported packages.

Note that geary's build tests fail on s390x (so we will be removing
geary/s390x from Bullseye). Also note that geary 3.34 requires
libhandy which is not available in Buster. There is a libhandy git
subproject available, but we remove it for Bullseye to avoid an
"embedded code copy".
