Okay, would a t-p-u upload of the current 2.2.1 package with the
alternative activated and the security fix be acceptable? Also, there
should be a sparc build, I don't know where it's stuck, but it should
not be a problem.
Carlos, if Steve and/or Luk agree, would you like to do such an
upload? I can provide the diff or do the NMU if you want.
