We acknowledge the work of the Ubuntu distribution in preparing patches suitable for near-direct inclusion in the Debian package. For the oldstable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in version 68-1+lenny1. For the stable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in version 83-4+squeeze1. For the testing distribution (wheezy) and the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 95-1. We recommend that you upgrade your ecryptfs-utils packages.
