RFS: mantis (updated package w/ security fix)




I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 1.73-4 of my package
"libphp-phpmailer". My normal sponsor for this package seems
unavailable presently and this upload is rather important in that it
fixes a security hole.  See
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=429179 regarding
CVE-2007-3215.

It builds this binary package:
libphp-phpmailer - full featured email transfer class for PHP

I believe I've prepared this appropriately. In debian/changelog I
set urgency to 'high'. I know this will get it into unstable on an
expedited basis, but am unsure how to get the fix into stable.

I read:

http://www.us.debian.org/doc/developers-reference/ch-pkgs.en.html#s-bug-security-building

and my impression is that the next step is to contact
team@security.debian.org. Please let me know if this is correct.

I have successfully built the new package in both pbuilder stable
and pbuilder unstable. It is lintian/linda clean in both cases.

The package can be found at:

http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/libphp-phpmailer/libphp-phpmailer_1.73-4.dsc

Many thanks,
Kevin
