Guys, I think that it is very important to make debsecan compatible with Ubuntu-ecosystem.

Sometimes I use Gentoo Linux, they have great tool - glsa-check (http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/security/security-handbook.xml?part=1&chap=14, http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GLSA) - it tests installed packages against known vulnerabilities and recommends to update affected packages.

You already have CVE-tracking page (http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/) and Ubuntu security notices (http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/). The remaining task is to integrate them with debsecan.
