  a/devs-2.3.1-noarch-22.tgz:  Added /dev/ACM* devices.
    (Thanks to Manolis Tzanidakis)
  a/pkgtools-10.2.0-i486-2.tgz:  Merged in Jim Hawkins' fixed speed
    optimizations for pkgtool.
  a/udev-062-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to udev-062.
    This seems to be broken with regard to ALSA devices...  I'd suggest
    anyone using a 2.6 kernel "chmod 644 /etc/rc.d/rc.udev" unless you want
    to help locate and report bugs.  It's also possible that this has
    something to do with the ever-changing syntax used in the udev.rules
    config file.  If you find any problems that can be attributed to that,
    fixes would be appreciated.  For now, rc.udev will be off by default.
  ap/mysql-4.1.12-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to mysql-4.1.12.
  ap/texinfo-4.8-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to texinfo-4.8.
  d/perl-5.8.7-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to perl-5.8.7, DBD-mysql-3.0002,
    and DBI-1.48.
  kde/kdebindings-3.4.1-i486-2.tgz:  Recompiled against perl-5.8.7 and
    j2sdk-1_5_0_03.
  kde/koffice-1.4.0a-i486-2.tgz:  Recompiled against mysql-4.1.12.
  kde/qt-3.3.4-i486-2.tgz:  Recompiled against mysql-4.1.12.
  n/bitchx-1.1-i486-2.tgz:  Recompiled against mysql-4.1.12.
  n/irssi-0.8.9-i486-7.tgz:  Recompiled against perl-5.8.7.
  n/php-4.4.0-i486-2.tgz:  Recompiled against mysql-4.1.12.
  n/popa3d-1.0-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to popa3d-1.0.
  n/tcpdump-3.9.3-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to libpcap-0.9.3 and tcpdump-3.9.3.
    This fixes an issue where an invalid BGP packet can cause tcpdump to
    go into an infinate loop, effectively disabling network monitoring.
    (* Security fix *)
  n/vsftpd-2.0.3-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to vsftpd-2.0.3.
  x/x11-6.8.2-i486-2.tgz:  Reverted to the 6.8.1 version of the ATI Rage128
    DRI module, as there's an undefined symbol in the newer version that
    prevents it from loading and breaks direct rendering for these cards.
    This bug has been reported on the freedesktop,org site but appears to
    have been closed without a fix...
    To observe the problem, on a system with a Rage128 card and DRI
    configured, use this command:  LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo
    (Thanks to Andrey V. Panov for the bug report)
  xap/gaim-1.4.0-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to gaim-1.4.0.
  xap/imagemagick-6.2.3_3-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to ImageMagick-6.2.3-3.
  xap/jre-symlink-1.0.5-noarch-1.tgz:  Upgraded for firefox-1.0.5.
  xap/mozilla-firefox-1.0.5-i686-1.tgz:  Upgraded to mozilla-firefox-1.0.5.
    This fixes several security issues.  For more information, see:
    http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabil...
    (* Security fix *)
  xap/mozilla-thunderbird-1.0.5-i686-1.tgz:  Upgraded to thunderbird-1.0.5.
    This fixes several security issues.  For more information, see:
    http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabil...
    (* Security fix *)
  xap/xscreensaver-4.22-i486-2.tgz:  Fixed location of man pages.
    (Thanks to Alak Trakru)
  xap/xv-3.10a-i486-4.tgz:  Upgraded to the latest XV jumbo patches,
    xv-3.10a-jumbo-fix-patch-20050410 and xv-3.10a-jumbo-enh-patch-20050501.
    These fix a number of format string and other possible security issues in
    addition to providing many other bugfixes and enhancements.
    (Thanks to Greg Roelofs)
    (* Security fix *)
