I don't see us solving the security bugs=2E So I wouldn't mind this=2E We =
could
provide unofficial 1=2E0=2E3 debs on firebird=2Edebian=2Enet=2E That way w=
e avoid
having open security debs in debian and have a solution for the people
really needing it=2E

Another issue I found: there should be libgds symlinks in /usr/lib to, not=

only in /usr/lib/firebird2/lib=2E A non debian app (ibaccess) just failed
after upgrading to 1=2E5=2E Putting back a symlink in /usr/lib fixes that=2E=
 It
also seems to work fine which is good news for backwards lib compatibility=
=2E

Cheers,
Remco=2E
