>Synopsis: packages libident and qident misplaced in directory "security"
>Confidential: no
>Severity: serious
>Priority: low
>Responsible: pkg-manager
>State: open
>Class: change-request
>Submitter-Id: net
>Arrival-Date: Wed Oct 08 13:50:00 +0000 2008
>Originator: Jörn Clausen
>Release:
>Organization:
University of Bielefeld
>Environment:
>Description:
The packages libident (implementing RFC 1413) and qident (using this library)
are placed in the directory "security". The ident protocol provides no form of
security, and as far as I can see, these programs don't add any additional
functionality that might enhance the protocol.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Move these packages to "net", joining alternative implementations fair-identd,
nidentd and oidentd.
