Unlike most uploads for LTS, this update of the linux source package
requires approval by the FTP team.  This should be resolved soon.

Missing dependency on latest jessie-security release of linux-image-4.9-amd64

[Shaun Bugler - Hetzner (Pty) Ltd]

Hello, we have shifted a number of servers using linux-image-4.9-amd64 
from backports to the jessie-security release, with great success. Today 
however, we see the package was bumped to 4.9+80+deb9u6~deb8u1, which 
has a dependency on:


dedi # aptitude show linux-image-4.9-amd64
Package: linux-image-4.9-amd64
New: yes
State: not installed
Version: 4.9+80+deb9u6~deb8u1
Priority: optional
Section: kernel
Maintainer: Debian Kernel Team 
Architecture: amd64
Uncompressed Size: 39.9 k
Depends: linux-image-4.9.0-0.bpo.8-amd64
Provides: linux-latest-modules-4.9.0-0.bpo.8-amd64

dedi # apt-cache policy linux-image-4.9.0-0.bpo.8-amd64
linux-image-4.9.0-0.bpo.8-amd64:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: (none)
  Version table:
dedi # apt-cache policy linux-image-4.9.0-0.bpo.7-amd64
linux-image-4.9.0-0.bpo.7-amd64:
  Installed: 4.9.110-3+deb9u2~deb8u1
  Candidate: 4.9.110-3+deb9u2~deb8u1
  Version table:
 *** 4.9.110-3+deb9u2~deb8u1 0
    990 http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates/main amd64 Packages

This doesn't seem to be available on the jessie security mirrors yet 
(linux-image-4.9.0-0.bpo.7-amd64 is still available), was this an 
oversight and being fixed or have we made a mistake in out apt 
configuration?


TIA
