+My Debian contributions this month were all
+[sponsored](https://www.freexian.com/about/debian-contributions/) by
+Freexian.
+
+ * I switched man-db and putty to `Rules-Requires-Root: no`, thanks to a
+ [suggestion](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/man-db/-/merge_requests/8)
+ from Niels Thykier.
+ * I moved some files in pcmciautils as part of the [/usr
+ move](https://wiki.debian.org/UsrMerge).
+ * I upgraded libfido2 to 1.15.0.
+ * I made an upstream release of [multipart
+ 0.2.5](https://github.com/defnull/multipart#changelog).
+ * I reviewed some security-update patches to putty.
+ * I packaged [yubihsm-connector](https://bugs.debian.org/1074007),
+ [yubihsm-shell](https://bugs.debian.org/1074215), and
+ [python-yubihsm](https://bugs.debian.org/1074420).
+ * openssh:
+ * I did a bit more planning for the [GSS-API package
+ split](https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2024/04/msg00044.html),
+ though decided not to land it quite yet to avoid blocking other
+ changes on NEW queue review.
+ * I removed the `user_readenv` option from PAM configuration
+ ([#1018260](https://bugs.debian.org/1018260)), and prepared a [release
+ note](https://salsa.debian.org/ddp-team/release-notes/-/merge_requests/204).
+ * Python team:
+ * I packaged [zope.deferredimport](https://bugs.debian.org/1072397),
+ needed for a new upstream version of python-persistent.
+ * I fixed some incompatibilities with pytest 8:
+ [ipykernel](https://bugs.debian.org/1070112) and
+ [ipywidgets](https://bugs.debian.org/1071893).
+ * I fixed a couple of RC or soon-to-be-RC bugs in khard
+ ([#1065887](https://bugs.debian.org/1065887) and
+ [#1069838](https://bugs.debian.org/1069838)), since I [use it for my
+ address book]({filename}/new-address-book.md) and wanted to get it
+ back into testing.
+ * I fixed an RC bug in python-repoze.sphinx.autointerface
+ ([#1057599](https://bugs.debian.org/1057599)).
+ * I sponsored uploads of python-channels-redis (Dale Richards) and
+ twisted (Florent 'Skia' Jacquet).
+ * I upgraded babelfish, django-favicon-plus-reloaded, dnsdiag,
+ flake8-builtins, flufl.lock, ipywidgets, jsonpickle, langtable,
+ nbconvert, requests, responses, partd, pytest-mock, python-aiohttp
+ (fixing [CVE-2024-23829](https://bugs.debian.org/1062708),
+ [CVE-2024-23334](https://bugs.debian.org/1062709),
+ [CVE-2024-30251](https://bugs.debian.org/1070364), and
+ [CVE-2024-27306](https://bugs.debian.org/1070665)), python-amply,
+ python-argcomplete, python-btrees, python-cups,
+ python-django-health-check, python-fluent-logger, python-persistent,
+ python-plumbum, python-rpaths, python-rt, python-sniffio,
+ python-tenacity, python-tokenize-rt, python-typing-extensions,
+ pyupgrade, sphinx-copybutton, sphinxcontrib-autoprogram,
+ uncertainties, zodbpickle, zope.configuration, zope.proxy, and
+ zope.security to new upstream versions.
