I have uploaded this now. I think this needs unblocking so that ia32-libs can also migrate. I've also sponsored ia32-libs-gtk/20101125 which could also need an unblock. My interest in this is from a security team standpoint where if we want to be able to support these packages in an at least somewhat acceptable way, we need them to be as up to date w.r.t. the contained packages as possible at time of release, so that if we need to make an update later we will not drag in updates for half of the libraries aswell. Ideally ia32-libs* contain the same versions of the libraries that are also released as normal packages. If we update ia32-libs* now that we're in a deep freeze we can at least get reasonably close. Depending on how long the freeze still lasts and what updates are let in, it may be desirable to make another upload later that updates the contained packages. And/or we ship a "catch up" update in the first point release. Cheers, Thijs
