My Debian Activities in October 2021

FTP master

This month I accepted 341 and rejected 46 packages. The rejection is as high as last month. I hope everybody is aware that pressing just one key when accepting a package is much faster than writing an explanation why a package has to be rejected. Anyway, the overall number of packages that got accepted was 355.

Debian LTS

This was my eighty-eighth month that I did some work for the Debian LTS initiative, started by Raphael Hertzog at Freexian.

This month my all in all workload has been 28.5h. During that time I did LTS and normal security uploads of:

[DLA 2788-1] strongswan security update for one CVE
[DLA 2789-1] squashfs-tools security update for one CVE
[DLA 2792-1] faad2 security update for seven CVEs
[DLA 2796-1] jbig2dec security update for two CVEs
[DLA 2800-1] cups security update for one CVE
[#998042] for jbig2dec in Buster

I also continued to work on exiv2.

Last but not least I did some days of frontdesk duties.

Debian ELTS

This month was the fortieth ELTS month.

During my allocated time I uploaded:

ELA-494-1 for curl
ELA-497-1 for squashfs-tools
ELA-498-1 for openssl
ELA-501-1 for faad2
ELA-504-1 for jbig2dec
ELA-508-1 for cups

Last but not least I did some days of frontdesk duties.

Debian Printing

I improved packaging or fixed bugs or uploaded a new version of:

Last but not least I looked at some old bugs and checked whether they could be closed.

Debian Astro

Though being a silent member of Debian Astro for a long time, I am now going to be more active now. Most of the time I will be focused on packages for telescope control, but of course I won’t stay away from other topics.

So I uploaded:

If you know of other missing packages, don’t hesitate to tell me!

Other stuff

On my neverending golang challenge I again uploaded some packages either for NEW or as source upload.

I uploaded new upstream versions of:

… sshesame
… c2go

I improved packaging or fixed bugs of:
