Yeah, I wasn't really expecting a security update per se,
but just making sure the new RPM got out there so that
people still using the older insecure version could
upgrade. I just thought about copying you (vdanen) in in
case you were able to take the load off of poor Lenny's
back (there's a LOT of contrib stuff!) or in case you
needed to do something special security-wise.
Thank you Lenny for the quick response, I'm about to
install the "official" RPM right now!
Oh, also, you might want to send a "heads-up" note to
whoever is in charge of the Mandrake bug tracking system,
in case they're affected by the same security breach.
