Package: f-prot-installer Version: 0.5.14.sarge.3 Severity: important
f-prot-installer defaults to loading new virus signatures whenever a PPP connection is established. I found this out the hard way when I was travelling and established a [roaming] GPRS connection for 10 Euros per MB. Even when not using GPRS I believe updating virus signatures whenever a PPP connection has been estalished will be a nuisance because it will degrade the connection throughput substantially for a few minutes when using a typical modem connection with <10KB/s I believe the default in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/f-prot-installer should be set to not load new virus signatures by setting FPROT_USE_PPP=false Thanks, --Christian -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-cm1.1 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages f-prot-installer depends on: ii debconf 1.4.30.13 Debian configuration management sy ii debianutils 2.8.4 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libwww-perl 5.803-4 WWW client/server library for Perl ii unzip 5.52-1sarge4 De-archiver for .zip files ii wget 1.9.1-12 retrieves files from the web -- debconf information: * f-prot-installer/reinstall: true * f-prot-installer/update_defs: true f-prot-installer/install_later: * f-prot-installer/action: Download and install * f-prot-installer/configured: false f-prot-installer/note_cron: f-prot-installer/where_are_files: /tmp f-prot-installer/failed: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
