Debian GNU/Linux 3.1r3 is now available:
The Debian project has updated the stable distribution Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 (codename sarge). This update mainly adds security updates to the stable release, along with a few corrections to serious problems. Those who frequently update from security.debian.org won't have to update many packages and most updates from security.debian.org are included in this update.
Please note that this update does not constitute a new version of Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 but only updates some of the packages included. There is no need to throw away 3.1 CDs. Instead you only need to update against ftp.debian.org or a mirror after an installation, in order to incorporate those changes. New CD and DVD images are being built right now and will be available soon at the regular locations.
Upgrading to this revision online is usually done by pointing the apt package tool (see the sources.list(5) manual page) to one of Debian's many FTP or HTTP mirrors. A comprehensive list of mirrors is available at:
http://www.debian.org/mirror/list
Debian-Installer Update
In order to make available updated Linux kernel packages in the Debian installer it had to be updated as well. To accomplish this the following packages also required an update: base-config, base-installer, debian-installer and preseed.
Miscellaneous Bugfixes
This stable update adds a few important corrections to the following packages:
Package Reason
evms Fixes system lockup on boot
evolution-webcal Getting architectures back in sync
glibc Fixes build failures
grub Preparations for etch kernels
kazehakase Corrects segmentation faults
octaviz Corrects library path
perl Corrects problems with UTF-8/taint fix and Tk
python-pgsql Corrects regression due to PostgreSQL update
vlan Corrects interface settings
wzdftpd Corrects wrong dependencies
