Bug#133800: Sorting of security items hides "new" old bugs



Package: www.debian.org
Version: N/A; reported 2002-02-13
Severity: important

Security updates which are really a re-issued old update (with new/proper
fix) are not shown as new bug, thus may be overlooked.

Example:
[SECURITY] [DSA 079-2] was issued on Feb. 11 but is not shown on
http://www.debian.org/security
directly, but rather in the 2001-section where probably few people would
look for a new/reissued security update.

Note that in this example immediate upgrade was recommended.
