Bug#642987: another example for an end-of-life



control: tags -1 + pending

Hi,

so I said on irc:

<      h01ger> | http://127.0.0.1:10605/tracker/CVE-2014-2242 shows me that 
mediawiki has reached EOL in squeeze, it's just not shown on 
http://127.0.0.1:10605/tracker/source-package/mediawiki (in the "Available 
versions") table, thus i'm not quite content yet

but I'm now content with it, at least for the moment. I will submit these 
patches soon.

Because/btw we have two different sources for this EOL information now:

< someone> mediawiki is EOL'd in squeeze according to the debian-security-
support package
<      h01ger> | someone: i was talking about #642987
<      h01ger> | though yeah, those are redudant and potentially conflicting 
sources for the same information
<      h01ger> | and afaik (and i know nothing) the info in the tracker is 
manually kept up2date all the time
<      h01ger> | given these, far wider problems, i consider my current patch 
for #642987 to be good enough for now

(Because why extend the codebase if we could also simplify it as well as the 
data which has to be manually maintained...)


cheers,
	Holger
