Description: 
 splitvt    - run two programs in a split screen
Changes: 
 splitvt (1.6.5-0potato1) stable; urgency=HIGH
 .
   * This package is built for potato. Rather than backporting the upstream
     patch alone, which leaves the possibility of more root exploits in the
     future, I'm going to use my patch too so its just sgid tty. My patch
     has had a good 6 months of testing, so I'm confident this is ok.
   * New upstream version, with a format string hole fixed, and several
     possible buffer overfllows fixed.
     - Of those, only (I think) the format string attack and two of the
       buffer overflows can affect the debian package.
     - Luckily, my last release of the package back in June 2000 made
       it only need to be sgid tty.
     - Total possible impact: attacker could possibly crack the tty group.
