Package: snort-common
Version: 2.8.5.2-2
Severity: serious
Tag: pending

Reviewing today the patch introduced in snort-common's preinst has two bugs
that have the following  consequences:

- the /etc/snort/database.conf file  created gets overwritten with the
contents of snort.conf and the resulting configuration prevents the snort
daemon from starting.

- the use of bash's echo when parsing /etc/default/snort.conf generates
config files with errors

I have generated new packages fixing these bugs and will upload them as soon
as I recover my internet connectivity.

Regards

Javier
