Package: firefox
Version: 66.0.5-1
Severity: critical

Firefox v67 was released 10 days ago and includes critical security
fixes (as I'm sure I don't need to point out, they always do). Please
update the package on the unstable channel.

I am aware that we are currently in a freeze period for the next stable
release, but many Debian users, like myself and my family, actually run
'unstable/'Sid', and the long delays in getting critical security fixes
like this onto the unstable channel impacts our security.

I understand that perhaps using unstable may not be officially
considered a correct use of Debian, but with the exception of server
use, people don't want to wait 2 years for new major versions of
significant userland packages. I have been using this channel for some
years now and rarely experience noticeable bugs introduced on it. The
only real problem stems from freezes that delay security updates.

Regards, :)
