For this to work, root priviliges are needed. Hence xtrlock should run as a setuid root binary (as it was, before the port was updated to version 2.2). >How-To-Repeat: Install x11/xtrlock and run as unpriviliged user. Instead of locking the screen, xtrlock outputs the error message "password entry has no pwd". >Fix: Apply the following patch. --- xtrlock.diff begins here --- diff -ruN xtrlock.orig/Makefile xtrlock/Makefile --- xtrlock.orig/Makefile 2013-03-24 16:58:29.000000000 +0100 +++ xtrlock/Makefile 2013-03-24 17:00:23.000000000 +0100 @@ -3,6 +3,7 @@ PORTNAME= xtrlock PORTVERSION= 2.2 +PORTREVISION= 1 CATEGORIES= x11 MASTER_SITES= DEBIAN DISTNAME= ${PORTNAME}_${PORTVERSION} @@ -21,6 +22,7 @@ MAN1= xtrlock.1 PLIST_FILES= bin/xtrlock +BINMODE= 4555 post-extract: @${LN} -sf xtrlock.man ${WRKSRC}/xtrlock.1 --- xtrlock.diff ends here --- >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
