Is there well-known non-official sites that build freeware packages
(I dont know how to do that) more recently ? (are they compatible
with freeware.sgi.com ?)

CDROM freeware and I have a pb with fw_common:

It want to remove lots of package like :

These warnings are for security reasons. Please see

You can either get/build newer versions of these packages, choose to
ignore the warnings, or not install them at all...up to you.

installing freeware
|
|
|
Hello,
I try to install new freeware from freeware.sgi.com on a 6.5.11
CDROM freeware and I have a pb with fw_common:
It add * fw_common.sw.security_fixes* that make me many pb !
It want to remove lots of package like :
* fw_unzip.sw.unzip
* fw_ghostscript.sw.ghostscript
* fw_libz.sw64.lib
* fw_libz.sw.lib
* fw_PAM.sw.lib
My questions are : Is it mandatory to add this packages ? Why does
it remove those new packages ? |
