[gentoo-user] Problems with glsa-check

[Martin Larsson]

I run 'glsa-check -l' and get a nice list of security advisories. So I
try 'glsa-check -f new' and get:

Trying to fix 200411-13 gives the same message.
Trying to fix any of the other SA's in the list gives no problems. But
-13 is the only one marked with [N]. It's:
Portage, Gentoolkit: Temporary file vulnerabilities (
app-portage/gentoolkit sys-apps/portage )

So I tried re-emerging those packages, but that made no difference...
I also tried re-emerging python, but to no avail.
Anyone knows what's going on?

Thanks, found it:

"The problem is that the python XML code returns Unicode which 
 portage doesn't like"
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64353

Fixed in gentoolkit-0.2.0_pre10 if anyone wants to run unstable.
