squeeze update of tcpdump?



Hello dear maintainer(s),

the Debian LTS team would like to fix the security issues which are
currently open in the Squeeze version of tcpdump:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-2155
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-2154
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-2153
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-0261
(one of those doesn't apply since there's no print-rpki-rtr.c
but the CVE lack the details about which one is which and
I can't figure it out from the one line description, the other fixes seem
to apply without much changes)

I noticed that you are preparing updates for wheezy, would you like to
take care of this yourself too? We are still understaffed so any help is
always highly appreciated.

If yes, please follow the workflow we have defined here:
http://wiki.debian.org/LTS/Development

If that workflow is a burden to you, feel free to just prepare an
updated source package and send it to debian-lts@lists.debian.org
(via a debdiff, or with an URL pointing to the the source package,
or even with a pointer to your packaging repository), and the members
of the LTS team will take care of the rest. Indicate clearly whether you
have tested the updated package or not.

If you don't want to take care of this update, it's not a problem, we
will do our best with your package. Just let us know whether you would
like to review and/or test the updated package before it gets released.

Thank you very much.

Raphaël Hertzog,
  on behalf of the Debian LTS team.

any point in time. You can verify whether someone is registered
