Wheezy update of git-annex?
Hello Richard,
First I want to point out that git-annex 6.20170818-1 failed to build on
arm64, you might want to ask for a give-back to retry with a newer
compiler (gcc 7.2 landed in unstable since the failed build on arm64).
Apart from that, the Debian LTS team would like to fix the security issues
which are currently open in the Wheezy version of git-annex:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2017-12976
Would you like to take care of this yourself?
If yes, please follow the workflow we have defined here:
https://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 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.
You can also opt-out from receiving future similar emails in your
answer and then the LTS Team will take care of git-annex updates
for the LTS releases.
Thank you very much.
Raphaël Hertzog,
on behalf of the Debian LTS team.
PS: A member of the LTS team might start working on this update at
any point in time. You can verify whether someone is registered
