Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

This uploads corrects the dependencies of the enigmail extension so it becomes installable again together with Icedove 45.

We recommend that you upgrade your enigmail packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
