Package: calendar-exchange-provider Version: 3.2.0~beta38-1 Severity: normal
It seems that calendar-exchange-provider checks for new versions upstream and offers downloading new versions when starting icedove with the iceowl extension. IMHO, it should not do this by default. First, I find it confusing if a package checks for new versions or allows to upgrade them independent of the Debian packaging system. We have debian/watch for this. Second, I don't expect from any software, that it contacts upstream directly without asking or without my consent. It is a kind of privacy violation. Maybe you could just patch out this version check?
