It looks like abiword 2.9.1 was uploaded to precise in December. Are we going to try to override that and ship the last 2.8.* release? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881386 Title: Syn

Hey Micah, I patched 2.8.6 to fix all format security errors. As Colin explained, cdbs is special with this, and cdbs packages need to fix those errors directly, see the log from yesterday. I uploaded the merge yesterday, so you can test it. Regards, \sh ** Changed in: abiword (Ubuntu)

Hi Micah, yes, I did the merge of abiword 2.8.x today, and we have a lot of format-security errors. 2.9.x is fixing all those compiler bugs. I tried to compile the latest 2.8.x release, but with our toolchain in precise, it's a disaster. I can try to fix all format-security errors in one patch
