Bug#648949: dspam metadata files in /var/spool are not cleaned correctly
Package: dspam Version: 3.6.8-9 Severity: important This bug was previously reported (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=522950) and is unresolved. A cronjob is installed with dspam but it does not clean if the storage driver is 'hash'. Previous advice in the archived bug suggested trying dspam_maintenance.sh, which is distributed by the upstream. I have now tested this and it works successfully, once the correct paths are set at the start of the script. This is still running on my machine and so far I have 1GB disk space back, which is not insignificant. I suggest that dspam_maintenance.sh is shipped as part of the standard package and run instead of the current cronjob. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.9 APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32.26-kvm-i386-20101122 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages dspam depends on: ii libc6 2.7-18lenny7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdspam7 3.6.8-9 DSPAM is a scalable and statistica ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.11-1+lenny2.1 OpenLDAP libraries ii procmail 3.22-16 Versatile e-mail processor Versions of packages dspam recommends: ii clamav-daemon 0.97.3+dfsg-1~lenny1 anti-virus utility for Unix - scan ii dspam-doc 3.6.8-9 Documentation for dspam dspam suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#589415: libnids: New version 1.24 released (security enhancements)
Package: libnids Version: 1.23 Severity: important Tags: patch A new version of libnids has been released, v1.24. This fixes a security issue, reported in bug 576281. This was fixed but only in unstable. A patch against the current libnids is available at http://edeca.net/temp/libnids_1.24-1.diff.gz - this applies cleanly to the current source which is available from http://sourceforge.net/projects/libnids/files/libnids/1.24/libnids-1.24.tar.gz/download I have signed the changelog as A. N. Other as I am not a Debian maintainer. All previous Debian changes that are not obsoleted by v1.24 are included. I have reduced optimization from -O2 to -O1 as testing using Debian lenny in a VM shows that -O2 breaks tests on AMD64 (fine on 32-bit). Tests included dsniff, programs from the samples/ directory in the original build and the Perl module Net::LibNIDS (which I maintain). Apart from this, the package works fine on AMD64 and x86. I feel it is important that the security issue is fixed in lenny also. The newer version also incorporates a number of fixes for bugs which cause the package to segfault in normal use. My testing with the packages I have created seem to suggest they are all fixed by v1.24. You will see from bug 574042 that I have tried to contact the maintainer and been unsuccessful. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.5 APT prefers stable APT policy: (700, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32.15-kvm-i386-20100622 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#574042: libnids1.21: Maintainer email address not working
Package: libnids1.21 Version: 1.23-1 Severity: normal As recommended on IRC, a quick bug to note that the maintainer email address for this package is unavailable.
