[Bug 1866572] Re: Sync fetchmail 6.4.2-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

[Bryce Harrington]

Also the breaking changes are lessened support for old python2,
increased support for python3, and that's entirely conducive to 20.20's
python objectives, even if the item in question is not actually shipping
for us.

There appears to be one technical fix to STARTTLS support, the rest of
the bug fixes are to documentation.  No new features are added.

The inclusion of our dep8 test upstream is great, and indeed does allow
this to become a sync.

All in all, looks good to me, +1 to sync, and I will do so directly.
Thanks for the report.

Title:
  Sync fetchmail 6.4.2-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Status in fetchmail package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Please sync fetchmail 6.4.2-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

  Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
    * Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
      - d/tests: Add basic dep8 test cases.  This adds a trivial test to
        verify installation of the main bits, and that the service is up
        and running.  Partially addresses LP #1677818 "Missing dep8
        tests", however a true fix will also test email fetching from a
        (local) mail service.
  The dep8 tests were pulled into Debian.

  Changelog entries since current focal version 6.4.1-1ubuntu1:

  fetchmail (6.4.2-2) unstable; urgency=medium

    * Allow stderr on service testing.
