Description Michael LeMay 2004-02-02 20:07:02 UTC
the app-admin/realpath ebuild references an unavailable version of the package, 1.9.3.  The next available version is 1.9.7, which when substituted in the ebuild operates as expected.  I renamed the affected files to reflect dwww version 1.9.7   and recomputed the checksums, and everything operated flawlessly.  This should be a quick and simple fix to replicate since I've packages the affected files at the site listed with this bug report (http://lemaymd.com/dwwwfix).  I expect version 1.9.3 of the package contained a security flaw and was removed from distribution.
