Package : php-horde-editor Version : 2.0.5+debian0-5+deb11u1 Debian Bug : 1042715

Horde Editor, the HTML editor for the Horde groupware platform, typically used in its IMP webmail component, relies on CKEditor v3.
CKEditor v3 reached EOL and is not supported in Debian bullseye.
This updates upgrades to CKEditor v4, as a first step to move to CKEditor v5.

For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version 2.0.5+debian0-5+deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your php-horde-editor packages.
