Hello,

In attempting to download the NAI uvscan v5.10, I notice there's *still* a 
dependency requirement on compat3x (which is a security hole).  This is 
the only port in the whole system that requires this.

In looking over NAI's site it would appear they have a freebsd version 6 
scanner available.  Does that still require the same libraries?

Their readme would appear to say so.

Jeez, why even make a separate 6.x version, then?

Has anyone from the FreeBSD project approached these people and said "you 
know we consider this old and broken, right?"

-Dan
