Unfortunately this means it cannot open any filename not ending in a newline. gnuchess-4.0.pl80 >How-To-Repeat: Compile and run gnuan. Give any (readable) filename. It will die when it attempts to open it. >Fix: 1) Keep using gets (program is not setuid). 2) Hunt down errant newlines in filename. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
