* New patch:
  + security-388608.patch: A race condition in the creation of 
    compressed and copied log files makes it possible to overwrite 
    arbitrary files by generating a link or symlink during a window 
    of opportunity between logrotate renaming a log file and creating 
    the copy of the next. (Closes: #388608) Once again, many thanks to
    Florian Zumbiehl for forcing me to think.
* Uploading to unstable.
