commit dab6c51e5eeb0489b2160b521566b2c1ebe8f4d4
Author: Santiago Ruano Rincón <santiago@debian.org>
Date:   Sun May 31 16:58:34 2026 -0300

    Mark some packages as non supported in bookworm LTS
    
    By the input from the security team, these packages are difficult to
    support for the LTS period of bookworm:
    
    - lxd: has open vulnerabilities whose fixes are too complex to be
      backported.
    - mbedtls: crytpo library difficult to support in the long term
    - mimetex: upstream project no longer exists
    - opennds: open vulnerabilities whose fixes are too complex to be
      backported.
    - ruby-saml: was introduced for gitlab, and no reverse dependencies
      remain in bookworm
    - smb4k: open vulnerabilities whose fixes are too complex to be
      backported.
    - wolfssl: crypto library difficult to support in the long term.

    Mark webkit2gtk in bullseye with limited support instead of non-supported
    
    Based on Emilio's comment: Traditionally we have considered webkit as
    "limited support": i.e. it is fine to be used for trusted content. E.g.
    apps like yelp (GNOME's help viewer), devhelp (GNOME's API viewer) are
    fine to use, but not full web views (e.g. epiphany with untrusted
    content).
