I occasionally look at Debian’s Tracker page for Geary, and I can see that new geary versions have been added to Unstable, but it still hasn’t been reintroduced to Testing. Could someone more familiar with Debian’s development process explain what the delay is?
I've been watching that too and I think it won't be back soon. I'm no expert on this but it appears geary is blocked because there is no ayatana-indicator-messages in testing, and that is blocked by the absence of libayatana-common, which is blocked by the absence of lomiri-url-dispatcher, which is blocked by the absence of lomiri-app-launch or mir, ... Basically it looks like that game where someone moved some tiny thing and it caused everything to collapse. The maintainer of the tiny thing at the bottom may not even realize how much stuff ultimately depends on it.
