“The Debian project is pleased to announce the tenth and final
update of its oldstable distribution Debian 5.0 (codename “lenny”).
This update mainly adds corrections for security problems to the
oldstable release, along with a few adjustments for serious
problems. Security advisories were already published separately and
are referenced where available.

The alpha and ia64 packages from DSA 1769 are not included in
this point release for technical reasons. All other security
updates released during the lifetime of “lenny” that have not
previously been part of a point release are included in this
update.

Please note that the security support for the oldstable
distribution ended in February 2012 and no updates have been
released since that point.
