Subject: [bug#29973] [PATCH] gnu: newsbeuter: Supersede.
Date: Thu, 4 Jan 2018 03:21:57 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180104022157.27354-1-me@tobias.gr> (raw)
* gnu/packages/syndication.scm (newsbeuter)[properties]: Mark as superseded
by newsboat.
---
Guix,
Newsbeuter has been sufficiently (unpatched-CVE-level) stagnant for long
enough that the last maintainer done went and forked it as Newsboat[0].
While our Newsbeuter shouldn't be outright vulnerable (thanks to Leo and
Efraim), and newsbeuter.org might be only temporarily off-line, what do
we think about blessing its successor? Surely it's but a one-line patch.
Kind regards,
T G-R
