Are there any updates planned for sarge in volatile.debian.org?

Thanks,

Hmm, he kind of asks if a stable backport would be considered to be
uploaded for sarge in volatile... which is not a priori ruled out,
though not very likely AFAICS.

Cheers

Apologies if this is the wrong place for the question.  I'm still
relatively new to the debian world and trying to get a feel for what's
what/what's where.

Whenever I run freshclam I get an error about being on version 0.91.2 and
0.92 is what I should be running.  When I follow the recommended link
there doesn't seem to be a new package available.  I thought I had gone
through this process once before by adding this to /etc/apt/sources

deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile etch/volatile main contrib
non-free

However when I do an "apt-get update" (during which volatile is listed)
and then "apt-get upgrade" or "apt-get install clamav" I get a message
that I'm running the latest version.  What am I missing?

Thanks
Forrest

I have the same thing (except I'm running sarge). Looking at the
volatile repository, it appears that the updated version of clamav is
in (sarge|etch)-proposed-updates.

Presumably this means that the main volatile distributions will be
updated soon, or have I misunderstood the situation?

The same happened when they updated tzdata, and it took around 24 hours to move from "proposed-updates" to main volatile.

I think it should be about the same here.

c-ya!

My understanding is that we're waiting on a few more builds before it
goes out, so yes, that seems correct.  I posted the link above because
you can manually grab the debs yourself and install them if it is
urgent.  The -0volatile2 packages are for sarge, the ~1volatile2
packages are for etch.

Take care,

new updates, no recent DSAs.... Hmmmm

by Jim Popovitch :: Rate this Message:

Reply to Author | View Threaded | Show Only this Message

I've got one etch box complaining, for 18 hours now, about new pending
updates. Specifically:

        apache2-mpm-worker
        apache2-utils
        apache2.2-common
        debconf
        debconf-i18n
        findutils
        klibc-utils
        libc6
        libc6-i686
        libklibc
        libpam-modules
        libpam-runtime
        libpam0g
        libpq4
        linux-image-2.6.18-5-686
        locales
        lvm2

Did I miss something?  Why now, why no DSAs? (apt-get update/upgrade
didn't indicate any packages last weekend, and sources.list hasn't
changed).  The notification of new packages was triggered 23:15 EST.

Sources:

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ etch main
deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main
deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile/ etch/volatile main
deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile/ etch/volatile-sloppy main


Hiccup on a mirror in the rotation?

Actually I didn't miss that, or rather I did get that email today....
but in the past I seem to recall the process was individual DSAs and
releases, followed by a bundled new release rollup.  Perhaps I am wrong.

Stable updates always include other things besides DSAs.  Security updates
are usually the majority of the release, but there are always other, more
minor things that get fixed.
