Hi all!

DSA 1327-1[1] states that CVE-2007-2838 is fixed in etch with version
0.1.4-2etch1 of gsambad, while could be still unfixed in sid.

However, the tracker page for this DSA[2] seems to be a bit strange:

| Debian/oldstable  not known to be vulnerable
| Debian/stable     not known to be vulnerable
| Debian/testing    not known to be vulnerable
| Debian/unstable   not known to be vulnerable

but at the bottom the correct version info seems to be shown:

| Package  Type     Release  Fixed Version  Urgency  Origin  Debian Bugs
| gsamba   unknown  etch     0.1.4-2etch1   unknown

Similarly awkward data are shown in the tracker page for the
vulnerability[3]:

| Source Package   Release          Version       Status
| gsambad (PTS)    etch             0.1.4-2       vulnerable
|                  etch (security)  0.1.4-2etch1  vulnerable
|                  lenny            0.1.5-5       vulnerable
|                  sid              0.1.6-1       vulnerable

but:

| Package  Type     Release     Fixed Version  Urgency  Origin      Debian Bugs
| gsamba   unknown  etch        0.1.4-2etch1   unknown  DSA-1327-1  
| gsambad  source   (unstable)  0.1.6-2        unknown              431331


What's wrong?
Is this an inconsistency?
