How odd...
I seem to have a /usr/bin/exmh, and exmh isn't in my /usr/local/bin.

Probably something else - I don't believe Red Hat would have that
nice old _PATH_EXECPATH bug for so long :-). It might be related
to the feature that wu-ftpd can send you a tar of a directory if
you do

pgp doesn't create clear sigs, and changing /etc/pgp-i.conf doesn't

I'm not sure. Someone could still read special files as root

The onus rests on the pine maintainer, not me, so I'm reassigning this
to pine.

Hi,
I'm searching for a new maintainer for the wu-ftpd package. You
should be able to program in perl (addftpuser is written in perl).
Thanks,

Now I noticed that the copyright has changed, the new one (same in
version 3.9
This is why I really wish H.J. Lu would make pure, bug-fix only
releases for the current, stable libcs. Yes, I know Debian isn't
using the latest, stable libc, but this paritcular bug isn't fixed in
the current beta version either.

Please blame me for all of this, and not the archive maintainer,
but if you try to install gs-3.33 from the unstable tree,
(the GNU version of gs), you'll notice it depends on gsfonts-4.01.
Next you'll notice, gsfonts is in non-free and you cannot install it
(as you're a "pure-gnu").
