Bug Description

squid 3.3.8 was released on 2013-07-13, more than 2 years ago. Unless it gets merged with Debian's 3.5 it should at least be updated the new 3.3.14 release from 2015-05-01.

Note: this is not a duplication of LP: #1473691; that one is about updating from 3.3 to 3.5+ and closing a bug that AFAICS was not fixed in 3.3.14. Still, this is a continuation of LP: #1496223 to be used if and only if we don't merge 3.5+ from Debian.

Thanks! =)

From a supportability standpoint, it's actually easier to have the same upstream version in trusty and wily (given that trusty is supported longer), so security patches apply identically to both.

Are there any arguments for a late-in-the-release update to 3.3.14 other than "it's newer"?

If not, I'd say we should just close this and look to merging with Debian for 16.04.

Adam,

That's a good point. None of the reported LP bugs are fixed by this
particular update. That said, the list of bug fixes in this update is
quite high.

I would be willing to SRU this for Trusty as well to keep it in sync.

SRUing to trusty would require a pretty comprehensive test plan and a justification for the massive upstream delta. It's likely not a reasonable thing to be suggesting in a stable update.

No longer needed for 16.04; we will jump straight to a merge of squid 3.5 from unstable.
