Links to SRU bugs: https://edge.launchpad.net/bugs/230027 https://edge.launchpad.net/bugs/229776 (my first SRU :) ) https://edge.launchpad.net/bugs/211553
Ok, for the second question, the following is a pending SRU bug (https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/debian/+source/tomcat5.5/+bug/179447) The following are the (general) steps that I should do as motu-sru member: The first question that needs a reply is "is this bug a SRU or not?" In the example, the program doesn't start so it is a SRU as it cannot be used by users. I try to reproduce the bug or to check users confirmations. I test if the debdiff works and if it introduces new regressions or not. If all is ok I give motu-sru ACK to the debdiff so it can be uploaded. If there is not a test case etc... I ask for it so people can test the package. If a new upstream version fixes the bug, in most cases the package is not updated but only the upstream fix is needed as a new upstream version will probability introduces new bugs. I hope all this is enough.
