(* Security fix *)
n/samba-4.19.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
This is a security release in order to address the following defects:
Unsanitized pipe names allow SMB clients to connect as root to existing
unix domain sockets on the file system.
SMB client can truncate files to 0 bytes by opening files with OVERWRITE
disposition when using the acl_xattr Samba VFS module with the smb.conf
setting "acl_xattr:ignore system acls = yes"
An RODC and a user with the GET_CHANGES right can view all attributes,
including secrets and passwords. Additionally, the access check fails
open on error conditions.
Calls to the rpcecho server on the AD DC can request that the server block
for a user-defined amount of time, denying service.
Samba can be made to start multiple incompatible RPC listeners, disrupting
service on the AD DC.

l/libcaca-0.99.beta20-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
Fixed a crash bug (a crafted file defining width of zero leads to divide by
zero and a crash). Seems to be merely a bug rather than a security issue, but
I'd been meaning to get beta20 building so this was a good excuse.
Thanks to marav.

a/util-linux-2.39.2-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt.
Copy /etc/pam.d/login to /etc/pam.d/remote. This is needed for /bin/login's
'-h' option, used (for example) by telnetd. If -h is used without
/etc/pam.d/remote, pam will not be configured properly, and /etc/securetty
will be ignored, possibly allowing root to login from a tty that is not
considered secure. Of course, the usual disclaimers about the security of
telnet/telnetd apply.
Thanks to HytronBG and Petri Kaukasoina.
