FTP assistant
This month I marked 485 packages for accept, rejected 87 of them and had to send 18 emails to maintainers. The NEW-queue is below 100 again, but you hardworking fellows don’t make a break, but start the GCC5 transition. This is so much fun :-).
Squeeze LTS
This was my thirteens month that I did some work for the Squeeze LTS initiative, started by Raphael Hertzog at Freexian.
This month I got assigned a workload of 15h and I spent again most of it to work on a new upload of php5. I finally prepared the patches for the CVEs and realized only then that the number of failed tests drastically increased. So return to beginning and checking why everything is broken now :-(.
- [DLA 269-1] linux-ftpd-ssl security update
- [DLA 271-1] libunwind security update
- [DLA 280-1] ghostscript security update
- [DLA 281-1] expat security update
The patch for [DLA 269-1] was prepared by Mats Erik Andersson.
This month I also had another term of doing frontdesk work. So I answered questions on the IRC channel and looked for CVEs that are important for Squeeze LTS or could be ignored.
Other stuff
This month I could finally finish the harminv transition and all affected packages migrated to testing meanwhile.
I also uploaded a new version for pipexec.
