My Debian Activities in April 2022

FTP master

This month I accepted 186 and rejected 26 packages. The overall number of packages that got accepted was 188.

Debian LTS

This was my ninety-fourth 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 40h. During that time I did LTS and normal security uploads of:

• [DLA 2973-1] minidlna security update for one CVE
• [DLA 2974-1] fribidi security update for three CVEs
• [DLA 2988-1] tinyxml security update for one CVE
• [DLA 2987-1] libarchive security update for three CVEs
• [#1009076] buster-pu: minidlna/1.2.1+dfsg-2+deb10u3
• [#1009077] bullseye-pu: minidlna/1.3.0+dfsg-2+deb11u1
• [#1009251] buster-pu: fribidi/1.0.5-3.1+deb10u2
• [#1009250] bullseye-pu: fribidi/1.0.8-2+deb11u1
• [#1010380] buster-pu: flac/1.3.2-3+deb10u2

Further I worked on libvirt, the dependency problems in unstable have been resolved and fixing in other releases can continue.

I also continued to work on security support for golang packages.

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

Debian ELTS

This month was the forty-siyth ELTS month.

During my allocated time I uploaded:

• ELA-591-1 for minidlna
• ELA-592-1 for fribidi
• ELA-602-1 for tinyxml
• ELS-603-1 for libarchive

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

Debian Printing

This month I uploaded new upstream versions or improved packaging of:

• … hplip
• … cups-filters

As I already became the maintainer of usb-modeswitch I also adopted usb-modeswitch-data

Debian Astro

Unfortunately I didn’t do anything for this group, but in May I will upload a new version of openvlbi and several indi-3rdparty packages.

Other stuff

Last but not least I uploaded several new upstream version of golang packages but not before checking with ratt that all dependencies still work.
