Debian LTS
March was the eleventh month I contributed to Debian LTS under the Freexian umbrella. In total I spent 13 hours (of allocated 11.00 + 5.25h from last month) working on preparing for wheezy-lts:
- Uploaded aptdaemon to {old-,}stable-proposed-updates (#818006, #818007)
- Fix CVE-2012-6700, CVE-2012-6769 CVE-2012-6768, in Wheezy's dhcpcd resulting in DSA-3534
- Reach out to Debian's Xen and KVM maintainers, Xen's community manager and several company to asses LTS maintainability
- Research and propose a possible way forward for QEMU and libvirt
- Upload a backport of libvirt to wheezy-backports for that
- Prepare a fix for Wheezy's gtk+3.0 for CVE-2013-7447 (#818090) and propose it for oldstable-p-u (#819362)
- Looked into Wheezy's lxc and CVE-2015-1335 specifically and marking it as no-dsa after discussion with the security-team.
- Make bin/support-ended.py support EOL dates
- Review Antiones nss work for Wheezy and work on the corresponding update for Jessie in order (to be finished this month).
