I've picked off all of the low-hanging fruit, so the remaining packages on this 
list really do need help to get fixed.

......... updated initial message below ........

There are several packages that need security updates that either have not been 
built yet, or there are some issues that need help and/or input from packagers.

Please help out with these where you can.

I'll try to organize these into categories and give a little info on them so 
it's easy to see if you can and want to help.
