The Debian project is pleased to announce the seventh update
of its
stable distribution Debian 6.0 (codename "squeeze"). This
update mainly
adds corrections for security problems to the stable
release, along with
a few adjustments for serious problems. Security advisories
were already
published separately and are referenced where available.
Please note that this update does not constitute a new
version of Debian
6.0 but only updates some of the packages included. There is
no need to
throw away 6.0 CDs or DVDs but only to update via an
up-to-date Debian
mirror after an installation, to cause any out of date
packages to be
updated.
Those who frequently install updates from security.debian.org won't have
to update many packages and most updates from security.debian.org are
included in this update.
New installation media and CD and DVD images containing
updated packages
will be available soon at the regular locations.
Upgrading to this revision online is usually done by
pointing the
aptitude (or apt) package tool (see the sources.list(5)
manual page) to
one of Debian's many FTP or HTTP mirrors. A comprehensive
list of
mirrors is available at:
