Perhaps not *that* big deal. Actually, Satoshi and I had a long conversation about it and we came up with some interesting facts. 1. Some of the packages have genuinely broken PLISTs, and Satoshi is working on them. 2. The @mode and @owner directives appear to fail weirdly when you're chrooted. Since those directives are now pretty much obsolete, they're being taken out. So I think the final verdict is: Everyone can relax. Satoshi is on it! Jordan
