Bug#612819: pu: package libapache-mod-jk/1.2.30-1
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
The reason of this is to fix #609886 properly and allow
upgrades of libapache2-mod-jk from lenny to squeeze.
libapache2-mod-jk 1.2.26 was built under a Linux kernel
without support for SOCK_CLOEXEC flag in socket(2) syscall.
OTOH, libapache2-mod-jk 1.2.30 was built under a Linux
kernel supporting that flag.
Several users are upgrading to squeeze but they are not
updating their kernel just yet and by doing so, the upgrades
of libapache2-mod-jk are broken due to this feature not
supported in older kernels.
IMO, it doesn't make sense to upload this to unstable.
The goal of this update is just to ease the upgrade of some
users that can't update their Linux kernel yet.
For wheezy this should not be an issue because by then the
kernels not supporting SOCK_CLOEXEC will be very outdated.
