Bug#803997: transition: polarssl



Package: release.debian.org
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition
Severity: normal
Forwarded: https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/auto-polarssl.html
X-Debbugs-CC: polarssl@packages.debian.org

Hi,

polarssl needs a library transition. The name of the upstream project
changed to 'mbedtls' so the SONAME has become 'libmbedtls9'. I've kept
the name of the dev package as 'libpolarssl-dev' for the 1.3 series so
every package doesn't need to be changed.

The new version of polarssl fixes a grave security bug (#801413). I
havn't got a response from the package maintainer at all in dealing
with this so I NMUed the version currently in experimental.

There is a build failure on s309x, but the fix should be a 1 line
change which I'd like to make when I upload the package to unstable. If
you'd prefer I could make another NMU to experimental instead.

Thanks,
James

Ben file (the automatic one is fine):

title = "polarssl";
is_affected = .depends ~ "libpolarssl7" | .depends ~ "libmbedtls9";
is_good = .depends ~ "libmbedtls9";
is_bad = .depends ~ "libpolarssl7";
