If we do those rebuilds in stable security we have several bottlenecks:
- We need to get all the other packages into security, need some way to
trigger rebuilds (I still think we need to kill the current way of
BinNMU alltogether)
- Those can only build after the fixed package was released (or at least
completely built)
- DSA are supposed to be available for all updates, so we now need to
list hundred of packages.
- The separate security archive is severely space limited.
- SRM like to look at all updates as well.
