    Dear Maintainer,

    * What led up to the situation?

    A change of version in package 7zip in Testing, more than a
    year ago, made Engrampa unusable for password protected compressed
    files

    * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
    ineffective)?

    I wrote to Engrampa developers and the bug was fixed in source
    code in february 2024.

    The issue in source code was this: https://github.com/mate-desktop/engrampa/issues/510

    And the fix was this: https://github.com/mate-desktop/engrampa/pull/513/commits

    * What was the outcome of this action?

    I compiled Engrampa from source code with the fix, and the
    issue was solved, but Engrampa packagers in Debian never updated the package. So all Mate users in Debian Testing had to use another
    archivers like xarchive to deal with password protected compressed
    files.

    * What outcome did you expect instead?

    After more than one year, and now that Debian Testing is
    freezing to a new stable, you should update package Engrampa 1.26
    with the old fix.


    I have just uploaded engrampa 1.26.2-5 to unstable. Please take that
    package (once builds are through) and test it on Debian trixie.

    Once you confirm that it works, I will send an unblock request to the
    release team, so we get the fix into trixie.

    Thanks for your work,

    I was in the mountains without Internet for two days.

    I just arrived home and tested the new package now, and Engrampa can
    open again zip and 7z password protected compressed files.

    Thank you a lot Mike
