PHP 5.3.2
Apache updated
The backport of Apache 2.2 was updated to 2.2.15-2 from Testing. In Testing/Unstable, this package (apache2.2-bin, to be precise) has a dependency on libssl >= 0.9.8m, because of some fixes concerning secure session renegotiation in mod_ssl. However, this version was built against Lenny’s 0.9.8g.
For more information on secure session renegotiation in OpenSSL, see its documentation.

Libapache2-mod-h264-streaming
Last Sunday (Feb. 21st), libapache2-mod-h264-streaming was updated to version 2.2.7 (~tzz1~bp50), which was released in January. I haven’t been tracking the development of the module very closely recently, mostly because the upstream news page doesn’t give much indication that there is any development going on at all. That was a mistake, or so it seems.

PHP 5.3.1 again
Shortly after uploading PHP 5.3.1 to lenny-custom, a bug appeared in the Debian BTS, concerning the several SQLite extensions. I went ahead and fixed this bug (in my own way; the Debian maintainers may choose a different path!) and prepared new packages. The situation regarding SQLite is now as follows:
There are three different extensions for [...]

Sysinventory 0.1.19
Sysinventory is a little piece of software of my own hand, that reports system inventory information. This includes hardware specs, like type and speed of CPU, amount of memory, etc. and also software data, like kernel version, installed version of certain software packages, etc. It is written as a collection of Zsh shell snippets (called [...]
Updates and additions
Today, the following packages were added/updated:
phpmyadmin: updated to version 3.2.3-4 from unstable

Apache2 and APR
The latest versions of Apache (2.2.12 and newer) support Server Name Indication (SNI), a feature of SSL and TLS, that allows you to do name-based virtual hosting over SSL, for multiple sites on a single IP address. The name of the virtual domain is sent as part of the TLS negotiation, allowing the server to [...]

Just added: backports of libtorrent, libtorrent-dev (0.12.5-2) and rtorrent (0.8.5-2). Available for amd64 and i386, in lenny-backports.
Note: if you upgrade rtorrent from 0.7.x, and you use a session directory, you have to fix your session files for rtorrent 0.8.5 to be able to use them. Something changed in the way rtorrent stores information in the [...]
