I think that's probably true of many of them, but there are some packages that pose special backporting problems and risks, where the bugs are likely to be around backport-specific things. I'm thinking of, for instance, the OpenLDAP packages, where backporting is likely to cause issues with the database upgrades and BerkeleyDB format. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
