OpenAFS, the implementation of the distributed filesystem AFS, has been

migration steps are needed to fully set the update into effect. For more
information please see the upstream advisory:

In addition the 'encrypt' option to the 'vos' tool was fixed.

For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.4.12.1+dfsg-4+squeeze2.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.6.1-3+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your openafs packages.
