Is there any hope of having the security problems in the libraries fixed
directly? That would be much nicer; it'd fix anyone using those libraries
beyond just owncloud...

It's better to post on https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad for this
kind of thing; "contact this team's admins" has various problems that
make it not very useful for this, and in this case your message ended up
in a moderation queue for ages.  (The builds in question appear to have
been dealt with by now.)

Thanks,
