A Debian package is allowed to bump versions for a security fix. Is this any different to the Chromium situation? Chromium-35 is already in wheezy despite only being released one month ago. Similar reasoning; Chromium upstream do not support backported security fixes, they just release a new version. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
