This is Mozilla bug > 315288, > https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=315288 > Jens, thanks for the official comment! I've linked to the Mozilla tracker. I agree with Manuel -- we'd need the packaging committee's approval to get an exemption for this. What would be really helpful is if we get official word from Oolite (you, basically) clarifying how libjs is used, and thus what the security risk in using a local copy (that is not patched automatically) would be. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list [email protected] http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
