Sorry, but the contradicts current practise of the security team to not
pull a full DSA for minor security issues (at the discretion of the
security team) but push them through proposed-updates instead.  Apparently
the DSA process is too time consuming for those and the security team
wants to spend the time on other issues.

(Of course the DSA process might need some helper scripts and a reliable
buildd infrastructure to consume less.)

Kind regards,
