Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 updated (r1)

This is the first update of Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 (codename
`sarge’) which mainly adds security updates to the stable release,
along with some 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 produce a new version of
Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 but only updates a few packages in it. There
is no need to throw away 3.1 CDs but only to update against ftp
ftp.debian.org after an
installation, in order to incorporate those late changes.

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>

Please note that packages from non-US.debian.org/ are currently
only available on its mirrors due to the problems the project has
encountered on the host klecker.

Security Updates

This revision adds the following security updates to the stable
release. The Security Team has already released an advisory for
each of these updates.

Miscellaneous Bugfixes

This revision adds important corrections to the following
packages. Most of them don’t affect the security of the system, but
may affect data integrity.

The complete list of all accepted and rejected packages together
with rationale is on the preparation page for this revision:
