hey, The first lenny update is scheduled for early April, so I wanted to start coordinating the kernel update.
Security -------- The lenny-security branch is currently caught up on security issues, so I'd like to release a DSA later this week. I'd appreciate it if the individual arch maintainers could test builds from this branch ahead of time. The CVE-2009-0029 touch a lot of arch-specific code and though they applied pretty easily to the lenny kernel, it'd still be good to get some testing there. I noticed that the snapshot archive now has a lenny-security dist for some archs (thanks waldi) Stable ------ There are several fixes queued up for a stable upload. I have a few more small fixes from jmm to review/commit as well, and it looks like tbm has an RTC regression fix pending. I've seen mentions of OpenVZ fixes from Ola/maks - what is the status of those? Are there any other changes people are working on? ABI changes ----------- The security fixes don't currently break the ABI. It sounds like the openvz fixes are ABI-breaking?. If it is going to be ready for this update and does break the ABI, I'd also like to get the hppa large-module fix in. And, of course, we'll need to notify the d-i team of this change. -- dann frazier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
