Hello there I'm fairly recent to FreeBSD, and a issue regarding the ports has come up that is bothering me a little (FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE-p4 , i386).
I installed portaudit which has been warning me about a problem with the mysql I have installed. portaudit -a Affected package: mysql-client-4.0.18_1 Type of problem: MySQL insecure temporary file creation (mysqlbug). Reference: <http://people.freebsd.org/~eik/portaudit/2e129846-8fbb-11d8-8b29-0020ed76ef5a.html> 1 problem(s) in your installed packages found. Although this bug isn't bothering me (chmod 0000 /usr/local/bin/mysqlbug), the fact that no port fix has come out is! :) This is either due to: a) a fix hasn't been applied to the port b) I'm doing something wrong in the cvsup Before today I was inclinded for option b), but I have just updated a few security related packages (png,rsync,...) using the same method, but I'd like to be sure... The steps I follow: cvsup -L 2 supfile portsdb -Uu pkgdb -F portversion -l "<" portupgrade -r packages_to_upgrade supfile: ################################################## *default host=cvsup.uk.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress *default tag=RELENG_4_9 src-all ports-all tag=. ################################################## Any comments/advice? thanks in advance -- José Carlos Pereira _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
