Description Philipp Kern 2004-04-13 07:46:42 UTC
glsa-check shows up 200402-02 in the list of unapplied GLSAs as my xfree-version is xfree-4.3.0-r5, however the GLSA is set to =4.3.0-r4. Please fix this.
Probably fellow updates should also update the GLSA, as this is really a special case with xfree.

Known problems 

Currently the following problems are known in the GLSA handling code:

    * The 200402-02 GLSA regarding xfree requires some functionality not present in portage. Because of that many systems will be shown as affected when they are not. As a workaround inject this GLSA.
