One small addition, since we now consider fixed in "somewhere in
codename" as fixed in $codename, would it be possible to reflect this
as well in the header section of e.g.
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2015-3294

But please keep the detail view below in the section "Vulnerable and
fixed packages".

Regards and thanks again,
Salvatore
