Description Damien Dye 2019-10-28 10:11:36 UTC
Hi,

I would like to ask a build of pixz for EPEL 8.

Would you mind requesting the branches and build them?

Comment 1 Pierre-YvesChibon 2020-04-21 13:48:47 UTC
Pretty ping?

Comment 2 Robert Scheck 2020-04-21 17:11:31 UTC
I'm not sure whether pxz at upstream is still maintained or semi-dead software, given the last security flaw CVE-2015-1200 was never fixed upstream (and also not in the Fedora packages). I'll have a look to it later (including the remaining security flaw).

Comment 3 Robert Scheck 2020-04-21 17:13:19 UTC
Damien, this is "pxz", not "pixz". If you would like to see "pixz", please file a separate report against component "pixz" (but I think the package was orphaned due to the lack of a maintainer).
