I believe a few parameters here are incorrect as they have changed since
this bug was reported.

* release should be: "wheezy-security"
* the first log entry should be: "Non-maintainer upload by the Wheezy
  LTS Team."
* increment the version like this:
  * if a package already e.g. had a +wheezy1 update, use +wheezy2 for the
    next update,
  * if a package hasn't seen an update, use +deb7u1 for the next update.

Basically, the change is "s/squeeze/wheezy/" and "wheezy-security works
now".

Since this may change again in the future before this issue is resolved,
maybe it's better to just refer to the LTS notes here:

Hard times are coming when we will be wanting the voices of writers
who can see alternatives to how we live now and can see through our
fear-stricken society and its obsessive technologies to other ways of
being, and even imagine some real grounds for hope. We will need
writers who can remember freedom. Poets, visionaries—the realists of a
larger reality.         - Ursula Le Guin
