Description Fabio Valentini 2023-06-12 09:57:20 UTC

c.f. https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2023-0040.html

The last release of the "users" crate was on 2020-10-08. This is also the last day on which code changes happened in the project's git repo on GitHub.

The "sysinfo" crate is listed as a possible alternative.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Peter Robinson 2023-06-16 09:28:30 UTC

Will work with upstream to migrate away from this

Comment 3 Fedora Release Engineering 2023-08-16 08:10:40 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle.
Changing version to 39.

Comment 4 Fabio Valentini 2023-09-12 13:26:05 UTC

There appears to be an actively maintained fork now:
https://crates.io/crates/uzers

This should be easier to migrate to than other alternatives.

Comment 5 Peter Robinson 2024-01-26 13:58:56 UTC

Fixed upstream

Comment 6 Aoife Moloney 2024-11-08 10:53:36 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 39 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 39 on 2024-11-26.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
'version' of '39'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden.
Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 39 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.

Comment 7 Fabio Valentini 2024-11-09 18:34:21 UTC

parsec no longer depends on the "users" crate.
