There are some security fixes for the kernel queued - nothing major. I had planned to see if the CVE-2011-4127 fix from the recent 2.6.27.y update applied cleanly/sanely. But, I'd also be ok w/ shipping what we have now. Evidently this reply got dropped somewhere by listz, at any rate... I prepared the above, tested it on amd64, and I'm currently preparing a build for hppa. I don't know of anything else that needs to change in d-i. My recommendation would be to either: fwiw, the packages in o-p-u right now which contain udebs are freetype, libpng and openssl. Those all appear to be used in the gtk initrd at least (openssl only on some architectures) although I'm not sure if that makes a difference to whether we want to do a respin. A) upload this build to security. If we have all builds by Monday (02.27), go ahead and release a DSA and proceed with a d-i spin. If not, reject go w/ what we have.

As the security team have recently confirmed that security support for

makes sense to schedule 5.0.10 to be after that date and make it the
final roll-up point release for lenny.
So, security EOL for lenny has now passed. We're in sync with the
security archive and the only missing packages are
openjdk-6/{alpha,ia64} and opie/{arm,armel}. AIUI the chances of those
ever building are remote but, given that we've nothing to lose we might
as well go ahead and accept them in to o-p-u and see what happens[tm].
I can't see any outstanding o-p-u package bugs in the BTS. If there's
any I missed on the list, please yell.
-kernel, -boot - were there any plans for a final kernel and/or d-i
upload for lenny? If so we need to get those sorted asap.
In terms of scheduling for the point release itself, the current
suggestions are:
25-26/2 - Steve's not available for CDs
3-4/3 - Cambridge BSP. Should be do-able as long as I can get decent
connectivity at the right time. :-)
10-11/3 - Joerg mentioned he's not available on the Sunday, but that's
only really an issue if stuff breaks and it then transpires that Mark's
also unavailable to help fix the world.
Thoughts / preferences / anything I missed?

Should ia32-libs be updated?
