For relation between severity level and GLSA publication see Dispatch. Basically everything that ends up with Trivial severity level will NOT get a GLSA and everything that ends up with Minor severity level will get a vote from the Security team members. Two yes or no votes normally wins. Everything else gets a GLSA. Then you have to add in Security supported architectures, but that's really of no concern to x86. -- Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen Gentoo Linux Security Team
