please grant a freeze exception for binutils 2.25-3 in jessie. The current
version in jessie is built from the 2.25 release branch, and this update would
move the final 2.25 into jessie. The package probably has more changes than
needed, otoh it fixes some issues which should get into jessie:
- several fixes for CVE issues, the security team asked to include these
into jessie.
- CVE-2014-8484 (PR binutils/17509).
- CVE-2014-8485, CVE-2014-8504 (PR binutils/17510).
- CVE-2014-8501, CVE-2014-8502, CVE-2014-8503 (PR binutils/17512).
- gold fixes on ARM32, now capable to build chromium.
- enabled gold on arm64.
- A lot of fixes and updates for both the new ppc64el and arm64
architectures. These new architectures were added pretty close to the
freeze, so some updates shouldn't come unexpected.
- Fixes RC issue #728529 (the rebuilt smartmontools 6.3+svn4002-2+b2
apparently already is in testing).
- The packages with the binNMU requests in #773972 should transition
to testing as well.
Attached is the Debian changelog, mentioning too all upstream changes, minus the
ones which only affect architectures not released by Debian. I'm planning no
further binutils for jessie.
