Description Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-12-08 14:39:52 UTC
Installation of SSL certificates in src_install might expose the secret
keys when building binary packages (bug 174759).

Please update the package mentioned in this bug's title to use the new
"install_cert" function of ssl-cert.eclass, and use it only in
your pkg_postinst or pkg_config.

This bug is for keeping track of specific changes to your ebuilds
and stabling, general questions about this should be discussed in
bug 174759.

Our aim is to have fixed ebuilds in the tree by Dec. 23rd, otherwise
we will commit this minor change. Stabling should be done two weeks after the
commit, at last around Jan, 6th.

Just a reminder; I would prefer if package maintainers fixed this for their packages. So I'll wait for another week before committing the change myself.

Fixed in 0.17-r6.
Leaving this bug open, stabilisation will follow around 2008-W02.

Postponing, owing to bug #199206.
Comment 4 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2008-01-14 21:16:14 UTC
netkit-ftpd-0.17-r7 is stable on all relevant arches.
I have removed -r4 and -r5, so all is done here.
