Could be easy to add this, within Package-Management-Tools. It's just
not fair  to users of Ubuntu allowing to install packages with known
sec-issues w/o according information.

QM should give a way how to deal with this. fyi Can u guess how many
installations are made per day to expose private computers to run into
this threat? 30/300/3000 ? Each day.
