[SAC] Debian Squeeze EOL ?

Committees SAC mailing list
1

It's been a few days that OSGeo sysadmins are receiving mail
notifications about being unable to fetch security updates
for Squeeze distribution, like:

     W: Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/dists/squeeze/updates/main/source/Sources.gz 404 Not Found [IP: 128.31.0.63 80]

I hadn't dug further but I suspect EOL was reached.
I think we should then either upgrade or interrupt whatever results
in those messages (unattended upgrades ?)

Affected machines (at least):

     wiki
     tracsvn
     web
     secure

Is anyone already tracking this already ?
I guess a trac ticket could be worth it.

FYI: I've commented out the source from /etc/apt/sources.list
on all the above machines.

This reminds us once again that all servers would pretty much
need an upgrade...
