To answer your question about Trusty however, nginx source package builds some thing into main (with 5 years of security support) and into universe (community security support only). Main: nginx, nginx-common, nginx-core, nginx-doc Universe: nginx-extras, nginx-full, nginx-light, nginx-naxsi, nginx-naxsi-ui My understand is that nginx packages that are in main, should be in the server supported seed and should have received Supported: 5 years field. This is the case in xenial. Looking at the package set changes, in xenial nginx correctly declares "5 years" of support. Which seems to be due to this commit from stgraber: revno: 1978 committer: Stéphane Graber <stgra...@ubuntu.com> branch nick: platform.utopic timestamp: Fri 2014-08-15 11:22:21 -0400 message: Move server stuff from ubuntu/supported I guess we can do a similar commit for trusty, and then the supported fields will be corrected in the -security/-updates pockets. If server team agrees. -- Regards, Dimitri. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
