I intend to backport pyinstaller and pyinstaller-hooks-contrib.  pyinstaller 
is in trixie.  pyinstaller-hooks-contrib did not clear NEW quickly enough to 
make it into trixie, but it is now in testing.  Because pyinstaller is a 
package that moves quickly upstream, and because of how pyinstaller needs to 
be updated to correctly interact with other packages, trixie users of 
pyinstaller will usually want to be running a current version from backports.

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/pyinstaller-hooks-contrib

As the current version of pyinstaller now depends on pyinstaller-hooks-
contrib, I intend to backport pyinstaller-hooks-contrib first and then, once 
it is in trixie-backports, backport the current version of pyinstaller.
