Thanks for notifying. Yes, indeed nss-pam-ldapd did not build for
kfreebsd-amd64 and kfreebsd-i386. As the FTBFS is a regression for the
kfreebsd builds when appliying the initial fix for CVE-2013-0288 I
think we should release an updated version targetting squeeze-security
to include the fix for it and send an updated DSA.
But I'm cc'ing also Moritz explicitly, who released this DSA, to get
an opinion from him.
Regards,
Salvatore
