Reported by ROGER Mickael and Thierry Zoller
I'm on multiple mailinglists I don't read every day but are on a ones a week a
quick scan.
And a lot of them are announce lists for all production critical software I use.
If I run a ssh service on my machine, and yes I do, I keep track of the ssh
announce list.
Why because I hate it to find my root password changed because there was a
security update I didn't updated 6 months ago because an apt-get update/upgrade
didn't work anymore.
