cjk: any movement on this issue?
Please, remove media-fonts/acroread-asianfonts-5.0.20020815 and app-text/acroread-5.10 from the tree, so that this can be closed. It's been package.masked for over one year and is vulnerable to GLSAs 200507-09 and 200508-11. # Stefan Schweizer <genstef@gentoo.org> (08 Jul 2005) # Masked because of "UnixAppOpenFilePerform() Buffer Overflow", #98101 <=app-text/acroread-5.10 =media-fonts/acroread-asianfonts-5.0.20020815
Treecleaners doesn't do per-version stuff at the moment, if you want the whole package punted, put us back on, if it's per-version obviously someone still cares ;)
a little complicated because there is also a security advisory for 7.08 at the moment. anyway, whoever masked acroread-asianfonts-5.0 forgot to put 7.0 fonts into stable. not sure how this managed to escape us for so long as this was nearly a year ago.

AFAICS, acroread-7* no longer depends on those fonts... if it's intentional, I don't see why those fonts are still in the tree.
It's an additional font pack for eastern characters. You only install it if you find some japanese pdf that you want to read under acroread. acroread doesn't depend on it explicitly.
i've removed acroread-asianfonts-5.0 from the tree now. we'll just live with amd64 being unstable for that package at the moment since no one has complained when we marked it unstable back in 2005. i suppose that should fix this bug for now. acroread 7.0 does download the fonts on demand if it can't find them on the system, but some system administrators may want to preinstall these fonts to save users having to download them.
