Description solar (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-10 12:02:02 UTC
Update adds:

Corrected the -l (new|all) handling.

Adds -q/--queit to supress startup msgs. 
Useful for admin cron scripts on larger clusters of gentoo boxes.

Adds -c/--cve option to short display when -l is given.
This is so our security team can backtrack which GLSA's are mapped to what CVE 
tags, which we are now trying to comply with.

Examples:
glsa-check -q -l new

glsa-check -q -c -l all| grep -v \)\ CAN-

/etc/cron.daily/glsa.job:
glsa-check -n -q -l all | mail -s "glsa-check report for `date -u +F`"  root@`domainname`
