Hi Luciano & Crew,

I tried to apply this update at approximately 0422+0000 but Aptitude 
tells me that there are no updates available for Wheezy.

This is not the first time that I've received notification of a DSA, 
only to find that the update is not actually available until 1/2 -> 1 
day later.

In the future; is it possible to ensure; that the updated package is 
actually available on the http://security.debian.org/ server; prior to 
issuing the relevant DSA to the public?

Thank you all for your work on providing a free "as in freedom" 
operating system and associated software suite.

Yours sincerely,
Bjoern.
