will 2001/09/03 10:48:23 PDT Modified files: x11/kdebase2 Makefile Added files: x11/kdebase2 pkg-message Log: Add a message to the port/package warning users about kcheckpass's setuid root bit, which is off by default. The purpose is to avoid having users who don't use kcheckpass become vulnerable to a root exploit. For more details see the actual pkg-message. Bump PORTREVISION to reflect this change in the package. As a side note, I'm a little wary about adding something like this so close to the ports freeze for 4.4-RELEASE. However, I decided that it was a minimal risk and went ahead with it in the hopes of avoiding the need for users to run into this "problem" themselves...
