Hello, Summary: in #354355, it has been reported that the current version in etch is the same than in sarge and it's so severly outdated that upstream can no longer support it security wise and that upstream developers would prefer having no sympa package at all instead of having this outdated version.
After several rounds in experimental, the maintainer managed to get a working package of sympa 5.2.3 with the help of Jean-Charles Delepine. Please unblock sympa/5.2.3-1 (which is otherwise ready to go in) to solve this bug in etch.
