We can postpone the removal notices (I will downgrade them to Important)
and keep git-annex in bookworm. But I would really like to see this
fixed. haskell-clientsession is clearly unmaintained (last upstream
commit is from 2016, and they have ignored both PRs).

Sean, can you please ask the author of git-annex to either remove the
dependency on clientsession, or consider a take over of this package?

Best,
