@juliank @tuxwise @keepassxc I don't run debian testing, so I hadn't run into this yet, but I would certainly have gone to upstream when I saw this breaking change. I would argue that at least doing them the courtesy of a heads up would be the decent human interaction thing. It may have allowed them to join the discussion, and possibly made my life easier as a user, but certainly their life easier. Adversarial packaging is allowed by GPL, but wouldn't that be a last resort?

@juliank @tuxwise @keepassxc on a related note: this whole thing must not be fun, I do appreciate that this gives you a lot of work that you didn't really ask for. Thank you for packaging keepassxc and spending the time, and I'm sorry you have to deal with loads of people having opinions on your choices, that's never fun...

@mvgorcum @juliank @tuxwise @keepassxc also im unsure how this improves security. Any user who finds out about this will just immediately move to the full release.

Adding a “lite” package would have been better.
