Description Fabio Valentini 2023-06-12 09:58:23 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 Fedora Release Engineering 2023-08-16 08:10:42 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle.
Changing version to 39.
Comment 2 Fabio Valentini 2023-09-12 13:26:35 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 3 Fabio Valentini 2024-08-09 13:48:33 UTC 
below no longer depends on the "users" crate and has migrated to "uzers".
