Very concerning that a double-point version upgrade would change something as important as MIME quoted-printable settings. We patched it because of a vulnerability; perhaps that was related, but I don't really troll the Phython CVS-commit mailing list of these things. CC'ing the relative FreeBSD port maintainers. Affected package: python-2.4.3 Type of problem: python -- buffer overrun in repr() for unicode strings. Reference: TIA, ~BAS On Mon, 2006-10-16 at 22:05 +0200, André Malo wrote: > * Brian J.
