>Imo it would be better to disabled the colord support in these two packages for now, so that these can be built and tested.
Just not possible. The g-s-d and g-c-c maintainers are not willing to make the colord support conditional, although I suppose you could manually hack out the building from configure.ac and a couple of Makefile.am's. >Kees, what about applying the two patches suggested by Richard? I can just release a new tarball upstream when Kees is happy with the changes. >Does the --enable-fd-fallback patch mean that files are not opened by colord (i.e. they must be opened by the user first)? Well, they are still opened by colord (the fd) but the session will have to have parsed the file before the fd is passed. You can never prevent DoSing the daemon, as there's no effective rate or capacity limiting of the messages by the DBus daemon. I'll work on a user-group patch, although it'll need to be fixed/audited by someone who knows what they are doing, .i.e. not me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/823185 Title: [MIR] colord To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/colord/+bug/823185/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
