in addition pound 1.5 fails to stop on
/etc/init.d/pound stop

Workaround: Mark pound-1.6 or 1.7 stable

web-apps herd. Can you mark this version as stable?
Comment 2 Stuart Herbert (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-05-09 03:36:22 UTC
I'm looking into it now for you.
Comment 3 Stuart Herbert (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-05-09 12:58:56 UTC
Okay, I've marked pound-1.7 stable, and removed pound-1.5 and earlier from CVS too.

Do we have an exploit against pound-1.5 that we can test against pound-1.7?

Best regards,
Stu
