Might work for everyone affected. Expat 2.0.1 Released 2007-06-06 I honestly hope that distros will update this piece of software, considering CVE-2012-1147 and CVE-2012-1148 (both affecting version 2.0 and earlier). Might be worth pinging the package maintainers. But in the meantime, Matt's suggestion sounds great.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
