@Diego, which version of zlib? it is a heavily modified zlib, not the vanilla version there's no need for security, the bundled version is perfectly up to date *** Bug 211415 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** in fact, read zlib/README.rsync if you want more details that tracker states that the bundle is "unnecessary" ... as documented here, it is necessary in rsync The "unnecessarily" was meant regarding static link, not bundling, sorry. i'm agreeable to that, thanks |
