My Debian Activities in August 2020

FTP master

This month I accepted 159 packages and rejected 16. The overall number of packages that got accepted was 172.

Debian LTS

This was my seventy-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 21.75h. During that time I did LTS uploads of:

  • [DLA 2336-1] firejail security update for two CVEs
  • [DLA 2337-1] python2.7 security update for nine CVEs
  • [DLA 2353-1] bacula security update for one CVE
  • [DLA 2354-1] ndpi security update for one CVE
  • [DLA 2355-1] bind9 security update for two CVEs
  • [DLA 2359-1] xorg-server security update for five CVEs

I also started to work on curl but did not upload a fixed version yet. As usual, testing the package takes up some time.

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

Debian ELTS

This month was the twenty sixth ELTS month.

During my allocated time I uploaded:

  • ELA-265-1 for python2.7
  • ELA-270-1 for bind9
  • ELA-272-1 for xorg-server

Like in LTS, I also started to work on curl and encountered the same problems as in LTS above.

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

Other stuff

This month I found again some time for other Debian work and uploaded packages to fix bugs, mainly around gcc10:

I also uploaded new upstream versions of:

All package called *osmo* are developed by the Osmocom project, that is about Open Source MObile COMmunication. They are really doing a great job and I apologize that my uploads of new versions are mostly far behind their development.

Some of the uploads are related to new packages:

This month I accepted 434 packages and rejected 54. The overall number of packages that got accepted was 475.

Debian LTS

This was my seventy-third 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 25.25h. During that time I did LTS uploads of:

  • [DLA 2289-1] mupdf security update for five CVEs
  • [DLA 2290-1] e2fsprogs security update for one CVE
  • [DLA 2294-1] salt security update for two CVEs

  • [DLA 2296-1] luajit security update for one CVE
  • [DLA 2298-1] libapache2-mod-auth-openidc security update for three CVEs

I started to work on python2.7 as well but stumbled over some hurdles in the testsuite, so I did not upload a fixed version yet.

This month was much influenced by the transition from Jessie LTS to Stretch LTS and one or another workflow/script needed some adjustments.

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

Debian ELTS

This month was the twenty fifth ELTS month.

During my allocated time I uploaded:

  • ELA-230-1 for luajit
  • ELA-231-1 for curl

Like in LTS, I also started to work on python2.7 and encountered the same hurdles in the testsuite. So I did not upload a fixed version for ELTS as well.

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

Other stuff

In this section nothing much happened this month. Thanks a lot to everybody who NMUed a package to fix a bug.

I started to work on curl as well but did not upload a fixed version, so this has to go to ELTS now.

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

Debian ELTS

This month was the twenty fourth ELTS month.

Unfortunately in the last month of Wheezy ELTS even I did not find any package to fix a CVE, so during my small allocated time I didn’t uploaded anything.

But at least I did some days of frontdesk duties und updated my working environment for the new ELTS Jessie.

Further I sent debdiffs of weechat/stretch, weechat/buster, e2fsprogs/stretch to the corresponding maintainers but got no feedback yet.
