>Description:
chat/irssi in pkgsrc (0.8.12) is not the latest stable version (0.8.13).
While here I also tried to improve the package removing patches, adding
LICENSE and trying to improve the general Makefile style.
During the work I also saw and think that pkg/15510 was accidentaly
reopened so I modified patch-aa accordingly.
Few days later of irssi 0.8.13 announcement CVE-2009-1959 appeared.
irssi
developers will not provide a bugfix release (altough they fixed this
problem on the developement release) but I think it is better to fix it
immediatly and so I decided to backport the security fix as patch-ab
(this
is also why the priority is medium and not low).
In order to avoid breakage I also updated chat/irssi-icb.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ cd ${PKGSRCDIR}/chat/irssi && make show-var VARNAME=DISTNAME
and/or
$ cd ${PKGSRCDIR}/chat/irssi && make install
$ irssi -v
>Fix:
Please apply the patches. I wrote various patches both for irssi and
irssi-icb and in order to don't make this mail pretty long I published
them on my website:
http://leot.altervista.org/patches/pkgsrc/chat/irssi-0.8.13.tgz
If this way is not handy for you please reply to this mail and I will
reply attaching all the patches on the PR.
For a list of changes please read chat/irssi/${WRKSRC}/NEWS.
The various "pkgsrc changes":
- added LICENSE (gnu-gpl-v2)
- close (accidentaly reopened) pkg/15510 [only for irssi, not
irssi-icb]
- added comments various patches (thanks pkglint)
- handle configuration file via INSTALL_MAKE_FLAGS (like mail/mutt)
[only
for irssi, not irssi-icb]
Thank you very much in advance!
