testing-proposed-updates approval requested for subversion 1.0.0-1sarge2



Hi,

Being referred to here by Colin Watson, does somebody here know how to
and have the power to approve the recent upload of subversion in
testing-proposed-updates of subversion?  It is a security-only
backport of subversion, the sid version of subversion (some upstream
versions further) is stuck in sid due to swig and perl breakage, and not
going anywhere soon.

The package fixes some security issues, CAN-2004-0397 and CAN-2004-0413,
both remote code execution vulnerabilities.

While technically, this could be processed via the security team, they
are overloaded with kernels and other stuff, and understandably don't
want to get involved (precedents and such).

The only problem I see is all the other architectures, is there some way
it can get autobuild, or maybe is even autobuild at this very moment? Or
does this all need hand-care? Hand-care would be a bummer, since it
means this issue requires so many attention... which could better be
spend elsewhere.
