[LUG] Debian updates Fwd: Updated Debian 9: 9.6 released

 

In a rare and ill timed glitch Debian updates left me needing to reboot to 
read my email.

When my email was working again I assumed it was this Debian release, but no 
it looks like there was a security patch to Ghostscript yesterday which 
triggered a libc update. apt-cache rdepends is pointing at cups saying he 
needs ghostscript and laughing about the state of Linux Desktop security.

Update all the Debians.
