Quick question and I'm guessing the answer will be just to wait and
that's fine.

There are just a few packages preventing me from using Required in
pacman.conf.

Like scribes and xcb-proto (the testing version is signed so I guess
that will migrate).

Just wondering if there is any pacman.conf magic that will tie a
signature checking setting to a particaulr package name?



p.s.

I don't know what people use apart from just updating regularly but I've
just written a script to look up packages installed with exploits
(cves) and also curently in the three main repos for arch. I haven't the
time at the mo to make it less crude and generic/ready/fancy for the
general public, but if anyone's interested let me know.


This is what I found recently.

bugzilla-4.2
flyspray-0.9.9.6
phpldapadmin-1.2.2
wordpress-3.3.1
emacs-23.4
flashplugin-11.1.102.62
glib-1.2.10
mysql-5.5.21
ocaml-3.12.1
tomcat-5.5.34
vlc-2.0.0
