Bug 74632 – glsa-check -p new dies on kdelibs

• Product: Gentoo Security
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description [e-mail] 2004-12-16 07:50:23 UTC]

glsa-check -t new works, and I could work around that, but I couldn't seem to find anyone else with this problem.

# glsa-check -p new
WARNING: This tool is completely new and not very tested, so it should not be
used on production systems. It's mainly a test tool for the new GLSA release
and distribution system, it's functionality will later be merged into emerge
and equery.
Please read http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/portage/glsa-integration.xml
before using this tool AND before reporting a bug.
