Evan,

The idea I had, and the Security team seemed to suggest, was to make the update uniform - that is, the version across the releases would be identical, hence three debdiffs based on the same packaging in Vivid.

I'll leave it to the Security team to decide if they don't want to do this for Precise, and if they choose to use 1.8.2-* from wheezy's security repo for precise, that's fine by me, I'm happy to go grab the source from Debian and rebuild for Precise (and hoping that the builds won't Fail-To-Build) and then put the debdiff here for consideration (or update it in my PPA so they can grab it and pull it in).

Whichever happens is fine by me, I'm just a volunteer, and not a member of the security team, I just coordinate with them from time to time, and happened to volunteer to assist with this while poking the CVE tracker a bit.
