base-system please advise and patch as necessary.

1.17-r1 and 1.18-r1 have been added to the tree with this patch. Older versions
have now been punted.

1.17 is stable across all arches and 1.18 is in the process of being stabled on
bug #184453.

------- Comment #4 From Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen 2007-08-22 16:52:41 0000 -------
Arches please test and mark stable. Target keywords are:

"alpha amd64 arm hppa ia64 m68k mips ppc ppc64 s390 sh sparc x86 ~x86-fbsd"

------- Comment #5 From Gustavo Zacarias (RETIRED) 2007-08-22 17:54:53 0000 -------
sparc stable for 1.18-r2 (which is probably the one you want?)

------- Comment #6 From Tobias Scherbaum 2007-08-22 18:29:08 0000 -------
ppc stable

------- Comment #7 From Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) 2007-08-22 20:34:19 0000 -------

ppc64 stable

------- Comment #13 From Pierre-Yves Rofes 2007-09-01 22:22:57 0000 -------
Stabling seems done on all arches, time for glsa decision. I tend to vote yes.

------- Comment #14 From Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen 2007-09-08 15:41:31 0000 -------
I vote YES.

------- Comment #15 From Matt Drew 2007-09-09 22:32:52 0000 -------
I vote yes, the flaw is (apparently) easy to use, and tar is of course
ubiquitous.  Submitting request.

This is GLSA 200709-09, done by falco.  Thanks to everyone, closing
