Package: ftp.debian.org
Hello FTP Team, Hereby I request removal of the shc package from the archive. The package is well maintained, but it always has an inherit problem in its main function to encrypt shell scripts as decribed in #327263 (generally it passes the scripts back to sh -c which could be easily stolen from /proc/pid/cmdline of course ;-). I have knew about that for years, but have kept it around because I knew of couple of users who were merely experimenting with it. As time passed I'm more inclined to think that it is better not to leave false impression to the mere users who are not familiar with how the package works. I'm the only package maintainer of it and I already requested its removal from lenny for same reasons. -- pub 4096R/0E4BD0AB 2003-03-18 <people.fccf.net/danchev/key pgp.mit.edu> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
