The reports of Debian's security woes have been exaggerated. As quickly as they were reported, they have just as swiftly vanished.
Popular Linux distributor Debian has moved quickly to address concerns it was falling behind on security.
The organisation's security team has issued a host of announcements and informed the community it has resolved problems with the infrastructure governing security updates.
"There were several issues with the security infrastructure after the release of Sarge [aka Debian 3.1] that led to the Debian security team being unable to issue updates to vulnerable packages. These issues have been fully resolved, and the infrastructure is working correctly again," it said in a statement issued this afternoon.
