Is there a security branch for the FreeBSD ports collection? Let's say, I installed FreeBSD 6.0 together with all needed -RELEASE ports/packages (i.e., those on the CD). Running security/portaudit after a while reveals that some of the installed packages have vulnerabilities. Am I on my own to go grab the fresh ports tree, and upgrade the affected software, suffering all the intricacies of the move by myself? Debian GNU/Linux has its security package updates, OpenBSD has a separately maintained "errata" ports branch (it's very likely you still get to download a newer release of the software, though).
Sorry if this is a bit OT. I've already asked this on freebsd-questions@ but they told me there's no such thing at all. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
