So we created this awesome alias to put ebuilds that need a maintainer. Good idea at the time, decent idea still. The problem? We have nearly 2000 open bugs assigned to maintainer-wanted[1]. I would like to discuss policy on these. Do we keep them, do we get a group of people to slowly review

[gentoo-dev] Last rites for media-libs/nurbs++

2006-05-29 Thread Mark Loeser
Upstream's last release for this package was in 2002, it doesn't compile with gcc-3.4 (bug #120303), and hasn't had a maintainer for a long time. Unless someone steps up to fix up this package, it will be punted in 30 days. Thanks, -- Mark Loeser - Gentoo Developer (cpp gcc-porting qa toolch

[gentoo-dev] net-www/awstats: security issues, revbump (and probably maintainer) needed

2006-05-29 Thread Stefan Cornelius
Hi Gang, net-www/awstats is masked because it has open security issues (including remote code execution), see bug #130487 for details. Version 6.6 was made to fix it, but unfortunately this version is not working at all (see bug #134296), so we are trapped between unusable and vulnerable versions.
