Re: [gentoo-dev] CWD-relative ROOT support in portage: misfeature?

Does /anybody/ use this feature?


Sorry for the HTML response... am on the road.

I don't use the feature but I would fully expect said behavior. ie, going with 
the example above I would expect that I'd need   the / in front for the path to 
not be relative.


A user and maintainer of this (vapier) has emerged.  I pooh-poohed the 
relative-ROOT idea when I discovered it a few days ago, but I've 
flip-flopped.  I was concerned it would be exploitable by Bad 
People(tm), but I think it's no more exploitable than absolute-only 
ROOT, so long as its implemented correctly.


So far, nobody's turned up to advocate against the status quo (except 
me, but I'm fine with it now), so I think the matter can be considered 
resolved.

we've been making trackers for the glibc upgrades:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=glibc-2.16

 boost and gnutls seem big enough already to spend some time to get those
 fixed before unleashing the beast.

gnutls is not valid and i will not wait for it.  boost i'll give the 
maintainer time to resolve as the patch to boost-1.49 can be made to work, but 
it's not that great, and there are already plans on moving boost-1.50 to 
unstable which is all i need.

The same applies to GnuTLS 3, you know ­— would be nice if you fixed the
games, and the other packages you maintain, that break with it.

For reference these are the other two trackers:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/alias/gnutls-3
http://bugs.gentoo.org/alias/boost-1.50

FWIW GnuTLS 3.1 is perfectly fine to go into ~arch IMHO as I've been
using it for a while and most of the bugs are only present on gnutls USE
flag turned on (and not for all SSL support).
