| HenryStiles | chrisl: oh wow didn't realize the mm fix was going to be that involved. A lot of work | 14:24.10 |
| chrisl | HenryStiles: it was rather a hole in the FAPI code.... yes | 14:24.41 |
| tkamppeter | Hi, | 16:50.56 |
| | I need help, I need DELAYBIND back. | 16:51.14 |
| chrisl | tkamppeter: why? It's a *huge* security risk | 17:00.55 |
| | tkamppeter: ah, actually, it is back.... | 17:01.44 |
| | http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=ghostpdl.git;a=commitdiff;h=fa499a5809aab45b2891b5c8b2363d1bca890757 | 17:02.41 |
| | It's still a massive security issue though :-( | 17:02.55 |
| tkamppeter | Thanks chrisl, I need DELAYBIND in 9.22. Can I simply apply this change to 9.22? | 17:26.50 |
| chrisl | I believe it should apply okay, I haven't tried it. You probably also want http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=ghostpdl.git;a=commitdiff;h=c5f770b5c64cf7a2f3a0f3c447c089a089a695d1 | 17:28.45 |
| | tkamppeter: ^^ | 17:28.49 |
| tkamppeter | chrisl, I have tried it and it applies, so no problem here. So I can provide a gs with DELAYBIND in Ubuntu. | 17:50.39 |
| | chrisl, biut now I have a compatibility problem. There are scripts written in PS in pstotxt and they do not work any more, also with the fixed gs 9.22. | 17:51.51 |
| | chrisl, this is the script: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/FQnR4kkjTn/ | 17:55.03 |
| | chrisl, and I get this error (with a pstotext where I have patched -dSAFER out of the gs command line):https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/j7TMTfM7wd/ | 17:58.51 |
| chrisl | tkamppeter: pstotext is old, broken and doesn't work very well - why bother? | 18:09.06 |
| | tkamppeter: http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=ghostpdl.git;a=commit;h=bcef41ad72a16472a3003d357bf8d8680174ab85 | 18:09.23 |
| | tkamppeter: I really feel that holding onto backwards compatibiility with a utility last updated 14 years ago isn't always going to be in our best interests...... | 18:14.47 |
| tkamppeter | chrisl, thank you very much. | 19:14.52 |
| | Forward 1 day (to 2018/04/12)>>> | |
