Please consider syslog-ng for testing

2005-05-09 Thread Micah Anderson 
syslog-ng has a security hole in 1.6.5-2 as noted on
http://newraff.debian.org/~joeyh/testing-security.html

I've just backported the fix that appeared in 1.6.6 and was sent as a
patch to the debian bug by the upstream maintainer.

The version uploaded to unstable (1.6.5-2.1) contains the fix for the
security hole, two fixes for lintian errors (not warnings) and three
documentation updates:

  * Non-maintainer upload to fix security hole for sarge
  * Changed debian/control to use a versioned depends on util-linux
to fix lintian error
  * Converted debian/changelog to be valid UTF-8 by to fix lintian
error
  * Updated documentation: doc/syslog-ng.conf.5, doc/syslog-ng.8 to fix
outdated information and typos and language clarification on klogd
in doc/sgml/syslog-ng.sgml

Please consider allowing this version into sarge.

Thanks,
Micah

-Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, util-linux
+Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, util-linux (>=2.12-10)

You're missing a space here.  ^^

Otherwise looks ok.

This space has been fixed. Additionally, the changelog which was not
converted properly to UTF-8 was also fixed. The new upload (1.6.5-2.2)
fixes these problems and should be considered for sarge.

Thanks,
