Package: harden-doc Version: 3.11 Severity: normal Hi!
Section 10.1.4 _Security support for the testing branch_[1] states: | Users willing to take advantage of this support should add the | following lines to their /etc/apt/sources.list (instead of the | lines described in Execute a security update, Section 4.2): | | deb http://secure-testing.debian.net/debian-secure-testing etch/security-updates main contrib non-free | # This line makes it possible to donwload source packages too | deb-src http://secure-testing.debian.net/debian-secure-testing etch/security-updates main contrib non-free This suggestion refers to the secure-testing.debian.net repositories, which are now obsolete. According to the latest DTSA[2], testing-security updates are now provided by security.debian.org: | To use the Debian testing security archive, add the following lines | to your /etc/apt/sources.list: | | deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free | deb-src http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free See also the announcement of the repository switch[3] for further details. I think that this information should be fixed ASAP, since users who do what is currently suggested by section 10.1.4 (that is to say, use secure-testing.debian.net) will miss any testing-security update issued after June 2006. And this does *not* sound good... ;-) [1] http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-howto/ch10.en.html#s-security-support-testing [2] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/secure-testing-announce/2007-March/000033.html [3] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/secure-testing-announce/2006-May/000029.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
