Package: python-libxml2
Version: 2.6.32.dfsg-3
Severity: important
While upgrading python-libxml2 I noticed that python-libxml2 was not
shown in apt-listchanges. After the upgrade, the file
changelog.Debian.gz still starts with:
libxml2 (2.6.32.dfsg-2+lenny1) testing-security; urgency=high
* Non-maintainer upload by the security team
* Fix DoS which leads to recursive evaluation of entities
Fixes: CVE-2008-3281
(i.e. not -3).
So either python-libxml2 must provide its own changelog.Debian.gz
or it must have a strict version lock to libxml2
