Unblock request for samba/2:3.2.5-1 (security update)



Dear release managers,

The Samba Team just released Samba 3.2.5 today, which is a
security-only fix, wrt 3.2.4, which is in lenny.

I just uploaded a 2:3.2.5-1 package for it, with urgency=high. The
security team is aware of the issue (which does not affect etch).

Could you consider unblocking that version and allow it to enter testing?

Changelog (typos included):

Changes: 
 samba (2:3.2.5-1) unstable; urgency=high
 .
   * New upstream version. Security-only release.
     This addresses CVE-2008-4314: potentially leaking
     arbitrary memory contents to malicious clients.
   * Better document cases where using a "master" file for smb.conf
     is a bad idea. Closes: #483187
   * Insert example "add machine script" and "add group script" scripts
     in the default smb.conf. Closes: #349049
   * Move homepage URL to Homepage filed in debian/control


The last 3 changes are either documentation (comments and examples)
as well as a trivial change in debian/control
