  a/jfsutils-1.1.8-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to jfsutils-1.1.8.
  a/pciutils-2.1.11-i486-6.tgz:  Updated pci.ids.
  a/procps-3.2.5-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to procps-3.2.5.
    Thanks to Stuart Winter for informing me that newer 2.6 kernels needed this.
  ap/espgs-8.15rc4-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to espgs-8.15rc4.
  ap/mysql-4.1.14-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to mysql-4.1.14.
  kde/kdeedu-3.4.2-i486-2.tgz:  Fixed a minor /tmp bug in kvoctrain.
    (* Security fix *)
  l/pcre-6.3-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to pcre-6.3.
    This fixes a buffer overflow that could be triggered by the processing of a
    specially crafted regular expression.  Theoretically this could be a security
    issue if regular expressions are accepted from untrusted users to be
    processed by a user with greater privileges, but this doesn't seem like a
    common scenario (or, for that matter, a good idea).  However, if you are
    using an application that links to the shared PCRE library and accepts
    outside input in such a manner, you will want to update to this new package.

    (* Security fix *)
  n/php-4.4.0-i486-3.tgz:  Relinked with the system PCRE library, as the builtin
    library has a buffer overflow that could be triggered by the processing of a
    specially crafted regular expression.
    For more information, see:
      http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-2491
    (* Security fix *)
    Upgraded PEAR::XMLRPC to version 1.4.0, which eliminates the use of the
    insecure eval() function.
      For more information, see:
      http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-2498
    (* Security fix *)
    Recompiled with support for mbstring and cURL.
    Thanks to Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi for pointing out that the new MySQL uses
    UTF-8, which in turn requires that PHP support multibyte strings.  Also,
    thanks to Amrit for mentioning that the PHP cURL extentions are useful and
    should be included.
  n/samba-3.0.20-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded samba-3.0.20.
  xap/gaim-1.5.0-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to gaim-1.5.0.
    This fixes some more security issues.

  testing/packages/php-5.0.4/php-5.0.4-i486-3.tgz:  Relinked with the
    system PCRE library, as the builtin library has a buffer overflow
    that could be triggered by the processing of a specially crafted
    regular expression.
