Subject: [gentoo-dev] Masking www-apps/viewcvs in favor of www-apps/viewvc?

1 Hi!
2
3 We provide both www-apps/viewcvs and www-apps/viewvc in the
4 tree. ViewCVS is the predecessor of ViewVC and has open security
5 issues (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=189614) so I'd like to
6 mask it.
7
8 But even s.g.o seems to use the older viewcvs (albeit patched) so I
9 thought I'd ask before I mask the ebuild.
10
11 Any comments? Else I'd mask it in a week and issue last rites on it.
12
13 Cheers,
14
