Hi Tom, Thanks for the heads up. > I've raised corresponding "critical" bugs against the package At first glance, "critical" seems to be a "high" for these bugs. A critical bug: """makes unrelated software on the system (or the whole system) break, or causes serious data loss, or introduces a security hole on systems where you install the package.""" Unless this is a remote root exploit (e.g. capnproto is a service running as root), I suspect "grave" might be more accurate[1].
