Hi Tyler,

> - Pocket should be trusty-security instead of trusty

I remember Coling saying something about proposed mapped automatically
to the release, I thought security was actually the same, but obviously
not because they are not in the same pocket (bad me, I didn't think
enough)

- Version should be 3.2.11-2ubuntu1.1 instead of 3.2.11-2ubuntu2

OOps, sorry I usually fix stuff in packages I maintain, bad me

- Patch was missing the DEP3 origin patch tag

yes, sorry

- Changelog did not follow the "SECURITY UPDATE:" style

this is something I'm trying to learn, but I forgot/I'm not able to do
it correctly.

thanks a lot for the fixes and for caring!

Title:
  libgnutls28 appears to not have been updated for CVE-2014-3466 in
  Trusty

Status in gnutls28 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  Although you've pushed out a patch for CVE-2014-3466 to libgnutls26 in
  the current stable LTS Ubuntu release (Trusty) you've not pushed out a
  corresponding patch for libgnutls28 (which is used by some packages).

  Looking at the apt-cache policy output:

  $ apt-cache policy libgnutls28
  libgnutls28:
    Installed: 3.2.11-2ubuntu1
    Candidate: 3.2.11-2ubuntu1
    Version table:
   *** 3.2.11-2ubuntu1 0
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  This would look like a vulnerable version according to the CVE report
  (also launchpad shows this package as not having been updated since
  the 5th of March).

  http://www.cvedetails.com/cve-details.php?t=1&cve_id=CVE-2014-3466

  Can you please push out this patch asap, especially given that the
  vulnerability has been widely publicised in the media as of yesterday?

  Thanks,
  Dr Owain Kenway
