Package: harden-servers Severity: wishlist Hi.
The conflict with portmap makes it "nearly" ;) impossible to install harden-servers on a desktop machine, as fam depends on it (which is recommended or depended on by GNOME, etc.). As portmap can be bound to the loopback interface (which should make it "secure") wouldn't it be possible to drop the conflict and replace it by either a warning to the user (e.g. via some debconf message) or via some script run by cron, that checks whether portmap is configured to be bound to 127.0.0.1?
