+debian-release Could I get ruling from the debian release managers? The bug in question is that if someone runs "dumpe2fs" without any arguments, it will core dump. There are no security implications, and the bug was fixed in 1.42.13. I consider this an utterly trivial bug that is not worth fixing in a Debian point release. Santiango thinks this is was worth opening bug with a severity "important" --- but I don't believe it fits the definition of "important". Debian Release managers, could you please weigh in? Thanks!! - Ted
