Bug Description

Binary package hint: sysstat

Please sync sysstat 8.1.6-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main).

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:

The only change made in Ubuntu has been accepted in Debian:
  * Merge the following change from Ubuntu:
    - remove call to execvp() as it's not needed and has potential
      security problems.

Changelog since current jaunty version 8.1.2-2ubuntu1:

sysstat (8.1.6-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Upload to unstable.

sysstat (8.1.6-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    + Daily data files format has changed again.
    + NFS v4 support added to sar -n (closes: #434442);
    + All sysstat commands are made consistent with how parameters are
      interpreted: "COMMAND <interval>" now generates a report continusouly,
      "COMMAND <interval> 0" causes an error, "COMMAND 0" displays a report
      since system startup (closes: #475707);
   + Option -S added to sadc, which replaces previous options -I or -d. Existing
     defaults file should be updated.
  * Standards-Version: 3.8.0 (no changes).
  * Merge the following change from Ubuntu:
    - remove call to execvp() as it's not needed and has potential
      security problems.
