Package: libgmime-2.4-2
Version: 2.4.23-1
Severity: normal

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256

Since 2.4.23, PGP/MIME signature verification is broken.  Signatures
that were previously reporting GMIME_SIGNATURE_STATUS_GOOD are now
returning some other signature status.

It was determined that the following commit in the gmime source [0] is
the problematic one:

2e2cc177f70088f36dde8127c2f1be58b7606f64

It looks like signer->status is no longer being set for good
signatures for some reason.  It looks like this might be an API
change, but the changelog claims that there are no API changes in
2.4.23.
