The archs which failed to build are not supported and can be ignored. The question of why they tried to build is being investigated.

[Kees Cook (kees)]

Since this is the first time the package will be in the Lucid archive, I am not counting it as a "security update". It should only go to the -updates pocket this time. Future uploads that include CVE fixes should go to -security normally, though.

[C de-Avillez (hggdh2)]

On a AMD64 server install kernel-test-security reported 8 different failures. Bug 810807 has been opened. Although I am not yet tagging qa-testing-failed (all other archs/environments still to be tested), looking at the above bug now may gain us some time.

[C de-Avillez (hggdh2)]

OK. There was only one failure, dealing with the DEBUG_RODATA on Xen i386; per sconklin this is expected and already targeted to next build, so tagging qa-testing-passed.

[Brendan Donegan (brendan-donegan)]

No certification testing is done on backports.
