8th May 2016
Debian LTS
April marked the twelfth month I contributed to Debian LTS under the Freexian umbrella. I only spent 2 hours (instead of expected 11,25) working on LTS things:
- Uploaded gtk+3.0 to wheezy-proposed-updates to fix CVE-2013-7447 (#818090).
- Further work on figuring out how to support Xen and QEMU in Wheezy LTS including writing up a summary and a interview with one prospective company
- Prepared a patch for Jessie's nss to fix CVE-2016-1950, CVE-2016-1979, CVE-2016-1978, CVE-2016-1938 based on Antiones work for Wheezy. This is currently pending review by the security team.
- Started to look into CVE-2014-7210 in pdns
The missing hours will be caught up during May - hopefully also by working on a QEMU/libvirt update in Wheezy should there be any interest - so I've you're relying on QEMU/KVM in wheezy now would be a good time to comment on it.
Other Debian things
- Attended the 9th Debian Groupware Meeting in the LinuxHotel in Essen resulting in a new upload of calypso to unstable.
- Uploded libvirt and python-libvirt 1.3.3, virt-sandbox 0.5.1+git20151113-3 and virt-manager 1.3.2-3 to unstable and libvirt 1.3.4~rc1 to experimental
