  a/kernel-ide-2.4.30-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to Linux 2.4.30.
  a/kernel-modules-2.4.30-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to Linux 2.4.30 kernel
modules.
  d/kernel-headers-2.4.30-i386-1.tgz:  Upgraded kernel headers from 2.4.30
kernel.
  k/kernel-source-2.4.30-noarch-1.tgz:  Upgraded to Linux 2.4.30 kernel
source.
  l/alsa-driver-1.0.8_2.4.30-i486-1.tgz:  Recompiled for Linux 2.4.30.
  l/gmp-4.1.4-i486-2.tgz:  Recompiled with --enable-mpfr.
  l/libgtkhtml-2.6.3-i486-1.tgz:  Added libgtkhtml-2.6.3 (needed for GIMP's
    help browser plugin).
  l/librsvg-2.8.1-i486-1.tgz:  Added librsvg-2.8.1 (needed for GIMP's SVG
    support plugin).
  n/bind-9.3.1-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to bind-9.3.1.
  n/getmail-4.3.7-noarch-1.tgz:  Upgraded to getmail-4.3.7.
  xap/gimp-2.2.6-i486-2.tgz:  Rebuilt to include SVG and help browser plugins.
  xap/gimp-help-2-0.7-noarch-1.tgz:  Added help files for the GIMP image
editor.
  xap/gxine-0.4.4-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to gxine-0.4.4.
  xap/jre-symlink-1.0.3-noarch-2.tgz:  Make sure the directories for the
symlinks
    are there.  (thanks to Eric Le Bras for the bug report)
  xap/xine-lib-1.0.1-i686-1.tgz:  Upgraded to xine-lib-1.0.1.
    This fixes some bugs in the MMS and Real RTSP streaming client code.
    While the odds of this vulnerability being usable to a remote attacker are
    low (but see the xine advisory), if you stream media from sites using
these
    protocols (and you think the sites might be "hostile" and will try to hack
    into your xine client), then you might want to upgrade to this new version
    of xine-lib.  Probably the other fixes and enchancements in xine-lib-1.0.1
    are a better rationale to do so, though.
    For more details on the xine-lib security issues, see:
      http://xinehq.de/index.php/security/XSA-2004-8
    (* Security fix *)
  bootdisks/*:  Upgraded to Linux 2.4.30 bootdisks.
  extra/linux-wlan-ng/linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1pre25_2.4.30-i486-1.tgz:
    Recompiled linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1pre25 for Linux 2.4.30.
  kernels/*:  Upgraded to Linux 2.4.30 kernels.
  isolinux/initrd.img, isolinux/network.dsk, isolinux/pcmcia.dsk,
  rootdisks/install.*, rootdisks/network.dsk, rootdisks/pcmcia.dsk:
    Updated kernel modules to 2.4.30.
