Where to get an unhacked 21.3? (ie, who has one?)

Where to get an unhacked 21.3? (ie, who has one?)

[David Combs]

I understand that rms and friends are still working
on verifying and/or fixing things screwed-up
by the break-in.

Anyone got a pre-breakin 21.3.tar.gz stored somewhere
available to all of us?

Thanks!

David

PS: (or newer than 21.3, I guess, if such exists?)

You could check out 21.3 from CVS:

cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/emacs login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/emacs -t EMACS_21_3 checkout emacs

If finding an unhacked 21.3 was that simple, I think the FSF would
have done so already. The problem is that a GNU server was hacked
several months before it was detected, so software released in those
months cannot be guaranteed to be unhacked.

 You could check out 21.3 from CVS:
 
 cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/emacs login
 cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/emacs -t EMACS_21_3 checkout emacs
 
Does anyone know why the ftp site doesn't just do that?

I just asked on emacs-devel.  Let's see what happens...
