Summary: seamonkey < 1.0.5 multiple vulnerabilities; to replace Mozilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=209167 ------- Additional Comments From michal@xxxxxxxxxxxx 2006-11-03 09:44 EST ------- I peeked into a spec of http://kuix.de/misc/seamonkey-1.0.5-0.4.fc4.src.rpm from comment $5. It does not look to me that what this produces will work as a replacement and a security update of mozilla. Results could be installed side-by-side with an old mozilla, extras style, and do not provide 'mozilla' named binary. This leaves all problems open as it is not possible on FC4 and earlier to delete 'mozilla' without doing the same with a number of other packages. Did I miss something in that spec? A package given in http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-legacy-list/2006-September/msg00019.html may need improvents but it does not suffer from the affliction above. It is true that replacing 'mozilla' requires new versions/recompilation of other things (yelp for sure, thunderbird I think, maybe more) but they use at least mozilla provided libraries and if there are security holes there then these old versions are affected in the same way. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. -- Fedora-security-list mailing list Fedora-security-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-security-list
