 deltarpm-3.4-8.el4.1 (FEDORA-EPEL-2009-0591)
 Create deltas between rpms
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

deltarpm prior to the current build ships with a bundled copy of zlib.  This
version of zlib has a known vulnerability with CVE identifier: CAN-2005-1849
This build of deltarpm patches the program to use the system zlib (which was
fixed when the vulnerability was first discovered) instead of the bundled copy.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Wed Sep 30 2009 Toshio Kuratomi <toshio at fedoraproject.org> - 3.4-8.1
- Build against the system zlib, not the bundled library.  This remedies the
  fact that the included zlib is affected by CAN-2005-1849.
- Fix cfile_detect_rsync() to detect rsync even if we don't have a zlib capable
  of making rsync-friendly compressed files.
