 Okay, now it's clear for me, thanks!

 And NOKUBI Takatsugu says it maybe not sufficient to fix non-x86 archs.
 for this issue. see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=837984
 I'm not sure whether it's true or not, but can you give a look into it,
 please?

Architectures, ...

I filled #837994 in case of interest. But it might be retested as well
on a porterbox.

Hi,

Just some question.

https://packages.debian.org/jessie/mysql-server-core-5.5 says
armhf 5.5.50-0+deb8u1 it's only arch that have old version.

mysql-5.5 in armhf, there is no jessie-security log.
https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=mysql-5.5=armhf

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/mysql-5.5 doesn't contain 5.5.52-0+deb8u1
upload information in news item.

- Do you notice no update for mysql-5.5 armhf?
 Is there any plan to rebuild it?
- Is it intentional to not provide build log for jessie-security?
 or can we check build log for security updates?
- Why there's no info in tracker about 5.5.52-0+deb8u1 upload?

That's right. mysql-5.5 5.5.52-0+deb8u1 failed various attempts to
build on armhf yet.

See above, yes I noticed but nevertheless released the DSA for the
other suites.

>  Is there any plan to rebuild it?

I tried to give back, but witout success. So the build failure needs
to be investigated specific on armhf.

Builds can be done in advance, for embargoed issues. Thus logs should
not be public. But yes, that could defintively be an improvement that
logs can be published *after* a DSA ist released. If you can help
wanna-build team on that matther I'm sure help would be appreciated.
Nobody worked on that part so far.

> - Why there's no info in tracker about 5.5.52-0+deb8u1 upload?

The tracker afaict just rcords the upload to ftp-master. Thus, there
will be a news entry only when the package is accepted into
proposed-updates (unless I'm wrong on that).

Hope that helps,

Salvatore
