That's exactly why the notification only got to mandrivas bugzilla, on IRC, and on cooker ml. Would have used the forum, but as i was looking for the corresponding advisory i saw both web services were down at the time. And we set up a warning thread on mandrivauser.de. I thought this was enough to raise awareness for this problem.
