Umm, as a member of motu-sru, I'd hardly call it resolved. This bug was handled with no regard to the Stable Release Updates procedure. I do not see an ACK from someone on the team. My issue is with the handling of THIS bug, not with the security issue itself. -- default mmap_min_addr breaks dose

Hello Malte. The problem is that in Jaunty it has been already commited the patch with 90-*. But renaming it to 30-* sounds very logical (reading sysctl.d/README). It was firstly named 90-* to be one of the last configurations executed. I don't know what to do :? -- default mmap_min_addr breaks
