[Herton R. Krzesinski (herton)]

Don't copy this update to -proposed, we will do a new natty update, to include some remaining ecryptfs updates/fixes that will come this week.

[Herton R. Krzesinski (herton)]

The ecryptfs updates will take more time, so we are going on with this natty update, disregard comment #2, process as usual.

[Herton R. Krzesinski (herton)]

All SRUs are verified on this update, releasing for testing.

Sorry, I screwed up, I also copied this to -security (I think that's the first kernel ever in the past year or so which didn't have to go to -security). Any suggestions what we could do here?
