Where are the Fedora updates?
[Posted November 12, 2003 by corbet]
Some users of the Fedora Core 1 release have noted that it contains at
least one package (ethereal) with a known vulnerability and have asked when
security updates will become available. The
response
from Red Hat is:
With the switch to Fedora, we have to rejigger some of the
infrastructure in pushing updates. This has hit a few delay snags,
we hope to get things straightened out soon.
The first update (for EPIC) has found its way to the
download directory, and the ethereal update is in the
testing directory. Announcements will go to the
fedora-announce list soon. Fedora Core is a new distribution, and some
of the mechanisms are still going into place, but it should all be there
before too long.
