Yaws is unable to access .beam binaries and I'm pretty sure it isn't because of poor configuration. The files are readable as user nobody and are in my path. Also, when I install ErlyWeb from the Erlay overlay and try to compile a new application, I get a massive dump of the same kind of errors. Error that I get all the time in /var/log/yaws/report.log: =ERROR REPORT==== 4-Feb-2007::10:26:10 === File operation error: eacces. Target: ./random.beam. Function: get_file. Process: code_server.

This problem is solved for me by version 1.68.
This has been masked for 7+ months without anyone stepping up to bump this, suggest removing the package. # Stefan Cornelius <dercorny@gentoo.org> (2 Mar 2007) # Masked wrt security bug #158958 www-servers/yaws
Gone.
Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but how do we get this package back in the tree ? I'm using yaws in a production environement (with a 1.75 ebuild, upstream fixed the vulnerability long ago), and would be happy to be a proxy maintainer (or whichever way users should maintain packages) for this package.
the www-servers herd/team and i would be happy to be your proxy. please attach your ebuild to a new bug and assign it to me. thanks
