Hello stable release managers,

I'd like to request removal of suricata/1:6.0.10-1 from the upcoming Debian
Bookworm 12.14 release because of security reasons. The upstream support
for Suricata 6.x ended Aug 2024 [1] and security patches are not
feasible any more.

There is also bug #1134367 requesting suricata/1:6.0.10-1 to be
marked EOL in debian-security-support, so the removal will prevent users
installing Bookworm from accidentally installing an EOL'ed package.

For users, there is an upgrade path to Trixie via bookworm-backports
by installing suricata/1:7.0.10-1~bpo12+1.

This request was discussed with package maintainer Sascha (@satta) as
well as with Moritz (@jmm) from the Debian Security Team.

suricata has these rdepends:
- Depends: none
- Recommends:
  - fever (removal not needed)
- Suggests: none

Thanks and regards,
Andreas
