Are other people worried about EPEL shipping/maintaining packages with known security issues?

This doesn't seem like a very responsible thing for us to do in general. -Jeff _______________________________________________ epel-devel-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/epel-devel-list
