Description Foxfair Hu 2007-04-15 11:20:02 UTC
The new command 'make missing' is not mentioned anyway in our docs.
Since it is a such useful command, we should let porters know it.

Fix: Apply this patch:

It's mentioned in ports(7) in HEAD. That man page could use an MFC to
STABLE, I guess.

It's the classic Microsoft security-bulletin formula: "The vulnerability
is important (never dangerous); you have nothing to fear and no reason
to regret trusting us; we have no intention of apologizing for it or
even explaining it adequately; now go get your patch, shut up, and be
grateful nothing bad has happened.

Are you planning to make this MFC'ed soon? It's just a two-line patch 
like this:

+++ ports.7     Tue Apr 17 01:21:29 2007

Do not meddle in the affairs of Wizards, for they are subtle and
quick to anger.
