cups-base port broken???

[Glyn Millington]

Happy St. Callistus' Day!


FreeBSD 7 release.

I'm having trouble upgrading cups-base.  With an up-to-date ports tree
this is what I get.

,
| glynthebearded# portupgrade cups-base
| ---  Upgrading 'cups-base-1.3.5_2' to 'cups-base-1.3.8_1' (print/cups-base)
| ---  Building '/usr/ports/print/cups-base'
| ===  Cleaning for cups-base-1.3.8_1
| ===  cups-base-1.3.8_1 has known vulnerabilities:
| 
| ** Command failed [exit code 1]: /usr/bin/script -qa
|/tmp/portupgrade.5624.0 env UPGRADE_TOOL=portupgrade
|UPGRADE_PORT=cups-base-1.3.5_2 UPGRADE_PORT_VER=1.3.5_2 make
| 
| ** Fix the problem and try again.
| ** Listing the failed packages (-:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed)
| ! print/cups-base (cups-base-1.3.5_2)   (unknown build error)
`

The story behind this is that I deinstalled  the cups-base package, then
found that I couldn't reinstall; so did pkg_add -r and got
cups-base-1.3.5_2; which is fine except that it won't work with the
installed version of gnutls, it wants an older version.

Is there a work-around which will get me a functional cups-base

First read 
http://www.vuxml.org/freebsd/ce29ce1d-971a-11dd-ab7e-001c2514716c.html
and the references cited therein and decide if installing this package is still
a good idea despite the security problems.

Then, if you do decide to go ahead:

~   # portupgrade -m DISABLE_VULNERABILITIES=yes cups-base

Otherwise, wait until a fix comes out for the package.  For something
like this, a fix will usually be available within a week or so.

Cheers,

Matthew

Bless you and many thanks!  had done the homework, but I didn't know the
incantation which would allow me to live dangerously ...
