Thanks for the uploads.I just mean security fixes. Not other ones. You make a great work on Debian but security issues would ruin that work.Thanks again and sorry for the sometimes aggressive attitude.Le 23 janv. 2017 06:09, "Ben Hutchings" <ben@decadent.org.uk> a écrit :On Tue, 2017-01-17 at 21:05 +0100, Julien Aubin wrote:

linux and linux-signed propragate to testing *at the same time*.

Let's not just take examples, let's look at the timestamps for all the
linux/linux-signed source packages we've uploaded to jessie-backports
from 4.7 onward:
linux (4.8.15-2~bpo8+2) Tue, 17 Jan 2017 20:18:03 +0000
linux-signed (3.4~bpo8+1) Wed, 18 Jan 2017 15:26:22 +0000
linux (4.8.15-2~bpo8+1) Fri, 13 Jan 2017 17:03:39 +0100
- binary uploads rejected, so nothing to sign
linux (4.8.11-1~bpo8+1) Wed, 14 Dec 2016 15:47:42 +0000
linux-signed (3.3~bpo8+2) Sat, 17 Dec 2016 15:07:31 +0000
linux (4.7.8-1~bpo8+1) Wed, 19 Oct 2016 19:47:42 +0100
linux-signed (2.8~bpo8+1) Sat, 22 Oct 2016 13:01:02 +0100
linux (4.7.6-1~bpo8+1) Wed, 19 Oct 2016 11:41:53 +0200
- superseded the same day, so not signed
linux (4.7.5-1~bpo8+2) Sat, 01 Oct 2016 20:52:46 +0100
linux-signed (2.6~bpo8+2) Thu, 06 Oct 2016 21:19:54 +0100
linux (4.7.5-1~bpo8+1) Fri, 30 Sep 2016 21:55:24 +0200
linux-signed (2.6~bpo8+1) Tue, 04 Oct 2016 02:59:54 +0100
linux (4.7.2-1~bpo8+1) Wed, 07 Sep 2016 19:59:14 +0200
- never signed
Yes, we dropped the ball on that first upload - it never got signed at
all. But since then the delay has been at worst 5 days and most
recently <1 day.
(NEW processing and buildd backlogs may also add a delay beyond what
you see in the changelod dates.)
And if you insist you want fixes a.s.a.p. you should be using unstable
rather than waiting for the (usually) 5+ days for updates to hit
testing and additional time for backports. (The most urgent updates
can be uploaded to backports sooner, but I've seen no sign that you
actually checked the urgency of any issues.)
