Please sync monkeysign 1.1 (universe) from Debian sid (main)

The 0.9 release has some serious security issues (--debug prints out
GPG private keys!) and the 1.1 release ships important bugfixes. It
would be a shame if the only monkeysign package in saucy would be 0.9
- might as well remove it from saucy if this sync request is refused.

Changelog entries since current saucy version 0.9:

monkeysign (1.1) unstable; urgency=low

  [Antoine Beaupré]
  * improved SMTP support:
    * SMTP username and passwords can be passed as commandline arguments
    * SMTP password is prompted if not specified
    * use STARTTLS if available
    * enable SMTP debugging only debugging is enabled
  * show the unencrypted email with --no-mail (Closes: #720049)
  * warn when gpg-agent is not running or failing (Closes: #723052)
  * set GPG_TTY if it is missing (Closes: #719908)
  * bail out on already signed keys (Closes: #720055)
  * mention monkeyscan in the package description so it can be found more
    easily
  * fix python-pkg-resources dependency
  * don't show backtrace on control-c
  * add missing files to .gitignore (Closes: #724007)
  * ship with a neat little slideshow to make presentations
