 Erm, you propably did misread that mail:

 That's extremely far from "not possible/desirable" - and especially
when it comes to security issues it is more than desirable to have them
fixed.

 ... which, in the case of this bugreport, is done. 0.1.1-9 did fix
CVE-2008-5619 for etch-backports, so it rather seems to me that Benjamin
got some things mixed up, unless the claimed patch in that upload wasn't
complete.

 Unfortunately, lenny doesn't ship roundcube so that doesn't buy one
anything.

 Would be great to get things straightened out. Benjamin, do you claim
the package in etch-bpo affected by this bug and the fix to be
incomplete, or what's the deal? I'm especially puzzled by your original
version you reported it again to be 0.2.2-1 which is by far close to
anything that's in bacports - or way over the version that it was fixed
in already. Do you claim by that that the patch got removed again, or
were you just puzzled?

 Thanks!
Rhonda
