I had overlooked that, thank you for pointing it out.
I guess the central "goal" of my email was to try to find a way to keep
password or similar leaks. In your opinion, do you think this issue or
a similar one has a high chance of occurring again in the future, or do
you think that this probably won't be a problem in the long run for
Forky and later? If it isn't going to resurface, then I don't think
there's any good reason for my initial request for package removal to
be considered.
Thanks for your time.
