I'm going to ask the security team to please stop running around
p.masking packages without acknowledgement from the maintainers. I'm
referring in particular to commit
135b94c85950254f559f290f4865bce8b349a917 regarding monkeyd. Both of the
cited "security bugs" were long fixed, and even if the were not, they do
not merit masking because they were at best some information leakage
with minor impact. I have reverted that commit and would ask that
security stop this practice.
