OK. I uploaded a revision to the debdiff coolkeyspu2.debdiff which also includes upstream patch descriptions in debian/changelog. Adam> are all of the above patches strictly required in order to Adam> support the new format? Well, not only to support the new format, but there were also cases that resulted in the coolkey plugin crashing the user's browser that seem equally worthy of inclusion of patches fixing those known issues. The coolkey-latest patch set in Debian packages is adopted from the Fedora coolkey srpm patch set. In RHEL this patch is composed of three patches: coolkey-cac.fix, coolkey-safenet and coolkey-1.1.0-gemalto.64k. I'm pretty sure the threading fix is most important when used with Java applications in the browser. There is an important and widely-used web application enabled by this capability. The coolkey_cac_rhl5 is the new card format that motivates this update, and is an improvement over the Fedora coolkey-cac-1 patch. This capability was added to RHEL: http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHEA-2011-0111.html and this likely will fix the Ubuntu bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coolkey/+bug/654400 The empty_certificates and pcscd_restarting avoid crashing the browser that uses the coolkey plugin.

Listing that in the current changelog stanze was my mistake - I included that patch back in coolkey 1.1.0-3 uploaded in 2007, and that patch is already in Debian's stable release. -Maitland -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
