RFS: gnustep-base (updated package, security bug)



Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 1.19.3-2
of my package "gnustep-base".

It builds these binary packages:
gnustep-base-common - GNUstep Base library - common files
gnustep-base-doc - Documentation for the GNUstep Base Library
gnustep-base-examples - Examples using the GNUstep Base Library
gnustep-base-runtime - GNUstep Base library - daemons and tools
libgnustep-base-dev - GNUstep Base header files and development libraries
libgnustep-base1.19 - GNUstep Base library
libgnustep-base1.19-dbg - GNUstep Base library - debugging symbols

The upload would fix these bugs: 560740

There is one lintian warning:
debian-rules-calls-debhelper-in-odd-order.  I believe the code is
correct; the odd ordering is to avoid circular dependency.  Perhaps
there's a way to workaround lintian to avoid the warning; that's why I
haven't added an override (yet).

The most important thing in this upload is a fix for a nasty security
issue in gdomap, discovered yesterday.  I've discussed the case with
the Security Team.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gnustep-base
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gnustep-base/gnustep-base_1.19.3-2.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
