Hey everyone,

Currently known remaining users of polarssl are:

 * bmx7
 * pianod
 * shadowsocks-libev-polarssl
 * shairport-sync-mini
 * shairport-sync-polarssl
 * transmission-cli-polarssl
 * transmission-daemon-polarssl
 * transmission-remote-polarssl
 * umurmur-polarssl


Please provide feedback on which approach you'd prefer and if you'd be
affected by the PolarSSL deprecation or not.

I think for all but the first two from this list, there is a non-polarssl version already packaged. Which would mainly leave bmx7 and pianod as main concerns. I think the former used to work with cyassl at some point in time and the latter should work with gnutls. Both of which we have, so it might just
be a minor change to the packaging Makefiles.

So from my point of view dropping libpolarssl now (with a bit of upfront notice to the maintainers) makes more sense than trying to drop a package later which is a bit of unexpected and am not sure if it can be effectively announced in a service release and just delays the inevitable.


Cheers,

Steven
