This is primarily a package update for the 1.6.6-snapshot release. It includes gcc 4.2, glibc 2.5 and kernel 2.6.21.3-grsec (this time with the ne2k_pci network driver).
Different packages were updated. The documentation package now includes HTML files instead of a PDF file. This release also includes permission fixes in the binutils package and a 2.6.20.10 kernel.
A lot of work has been done with the packages, and there are many new updates available. Kernel based features are the 2.6.19.7 update and support of eCryptfs. This release contains security updates for CVE-2007-1536.
Glibc is now patched with the ctermid() patch. The
Linux kernel was updated to 2.6.19.4. Other
packages were updated, including netcat (nc),
OpenBSD-inetd, dnsmasq, gradm, iptables, rkhunter,
openssh, openldap, nmap, and the tcpip package.
sysklogd now also uses the Debian package source
(but with ssp and -pie) and is compiled for 2.6.x
kernels now. This release also includes security
updates for gnupg, tcpdump, clamav, openldap, and
spamassasin.
