Stabilizing for multiple security issues [1] is "incidental"?!
Stabling for multiple local denial of service security issues can be done incidentally when stabling for a data loss fix (which I'm not claiming is the case for one particular package, but merely giving as an example demonstrating what "incidental" means). | What on earth are you talking about here?

The arch teams could be too busy dealing with other bugs that matter more or too busy dealing with noise bugs. -- Ciaran McCreesh Mail : ciaranm at ciaranm.org Web : http://ciaranm.org/ as-needed is broken : http://ciaranm.org/show_post.pl?post_id=13
