Hi, got here some patches for common-lisp-controller. One is a bugfix in that CLC does not work if multiple users have the same home directory or that it does not work correctly in a sudo environemnt (because in that case the user becomes "root" but the home-directory usually stays the same). This situation makes two users end up with the same FASL cache, which is not allowed by the CLC security checks. The other patches add a feature, more to read in the changelog and README.Debian. They should be mostly independent from each other, so you can apply as you like. :-) René Sun Jan 8 23:09:17 CET 2006 René van Bevern <rvb@cadr.progn.org> * document customizable images Sun Jan 8 23:47:48 CET 2006 René van Bevern <rvb@cadr.progn.org> * update implementation images on (un)registration of lisp source Mon Jan 9 00:57:08 CET 2006 René van Bevern <rvb@cadr.progn.org> * Load some user-wished systems into the default generated system Mon Jan 9 01:24:40 CET 2006 René van Bevern <rvb@cadr.progn.org> * Do not use home directory for spooldirs but user IDs Because there is a big problem with the current thing: multiple users may have the same home directory and so multiple users may get the same fasl root. That is a bad thing[tm] especially because this case won't let act multiple users on that FASL root. This breaks usage of clisp in sudo, because in sudo, my UID will be 0 but my home direcotry is still /home/rvb and I will get the fasl cache of rvb as root. Bad bad bad ... This situation always arises when one does "sudo aptitude install clisp" and causes trouble for a very cool patch that I am about to send you as soon as this one is applied. ;-) User IDs are unique, while directory names are not. I highly recommend applying this patch. :-> Of course the current practise is more portable, but not practicable. :-/ Mon Jan 9 02:06:54 CET 2006 René van Bevern <rvb@cadr.progn.org> * update changelog for customized default-images Mon Jan 9 02:07:25 CET 2006 René van Bevern <rvb@cadr.progn.org> * Split functions more up, making more code-reuse check-spooldir-security is no longer present twice and get-uid is split out of get-uid-mode-and-my-uid, because it is useful (see next patch). Tested patch with several unsecure and secure spooldirs using sbcl and clisp (no cmucl available on my arch).
