Bug 141156 – ethereal removal - transition sec-policy/selinux-ethereal to wireshark

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Daniel Black (RETIRED) 2006-07-20 05:06:18 UTC]

Ethereal is vulnerable and has no devs to fix it. Wireshark is the fixed continuation.

thanks for the bug report, Daniel.

selinux-wireshark-20060720 is in the tree with small changes.

you are free to move selinux-ethereal -> selinux-wireshark whenever you do the parent package move.

I will mark selinux-wireshark stable in a few hours when the package should have landed on the mirrors.

Thanks for checking. I was assuming it wasn't perfect.

Thanks. I hadn't actually thought about it but it also makes sense.

Thankyou. Is matching wireshark in stable possible so I can add a USE=selinux RDEPEND on sec-policy/selinux-wireshark to net-analyzer/wireshark?

wireshark-0.99.2.ebuild:KEYWORDS="alpha amd64 ~ia64 ppc ppc64 ~sparc ~x86"

I just marked selinux-wireshark stable on all selinux arches, so you can add the RDEPEND and the IUSE on net-analyzer/wireshark. and I tested wireshark on x86 and it workedforme ;)

cheers,
