Hello, we're not very far from having hardening build flags set by default by dpkg-buildflags (waiting on some documentation update that Kees should take care of).
I would like to find one or two persons to lead a new release goal centered around hardening. The big goal is to have the maximum number of packages using hardening by the time Wheezy is released but it could include more specific sub-goals like "all packages with priority >= standard should use dpkg-buildflags properly" or "all packages providing a daemon should use dpkg-buildflags properly". It's up to whoever does the work to define their methodology of work but it's probably interesting to write some script to detect whether a package is using dpkg-buildflags. Rebuilding packages with a custom dpkg-buildflags configuration that adds a fake flag and analyzing the build logs has been suggested (see #628516). If you're interested, just respond and start creating the release goal wiki page: http://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog ◈ Debian Developer Follow my Debian News ▶ http://RaphaelHertzog.com (English) ▶ http://RaphaelHertzog.fr (Français) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
