** Description changed: Main inclusion report for libpipeline: Availability: In natty/universe for all supported architectures. - Rationale: Upcoming (build-)depends from man-db and binfmt-support; code - split out from man-db. + Rationale: (Build-)depends from man-db 2.5.8-1 and an upcoming version + of binfmt-support; code split out from man-db. Security: I wrote libpipeline in response to a series of systemic security issues in man-db, not all of which ever received CVEs; CVE-2003-0645 is vaguely related. Since it was written, the only CVE in man-db has been CVE-2006-4250 which was a flaw in a routine that used the pipeline library, but not a problem in the library itself. There has never been a security issue with the pipeline library in man-db to the best of my knowledge. QA: No configuration. No bugs in libpipeline in Debian or Ubuntu, and I don't think any of the man-db bugs can be attributed to libpipeline (though I'll deal with them if that's incorrect, of course). libpipeline has a test suite with moderate coverage (the main omissions are the pipeline_connect/pipeline_pump family) which is run during the build. Standards compliance: FHS/policy-compliant; debhelper 7 with a few simple overrides. As a bonus, uses hardening-includes. :-) Maintenance: I expect that we can just keep this synced with Debian.
