Bug#693243: unblock: ncpfs/2.2.6-9
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
Please unblock package ncpfs/2.2.6-9. I fixed several bugs that breaks
it either completely or only the second time it is used.
Also I removed the SUID-bit from the binaries. The NCP protocol is
practically dead; Movell pushs the customers to migrate to CIFS with
Samba. So this code does not get a lot attention and a lot of security
problems had been fixed in the last uploads. Also a quick review didn't
made me think this is a good idea anyway. The impact is pretty low, as
mounting via fstab still works.
