Package: xserver-common Version: 4.2.1-15 Severity: normal Currently the postinst creates a temporary file in /tmp for the new Xwrapper.config. There is no benefit in doing this, it might as well use $XWRAPPER_CONFIG.dpkg-new all along with no loss of functionality.
For SE Linux a file created in /tmp gets a different context, and if it is moved to /etc and /etc and /tmp are in the same file system then it retains a type that prevents most domains from accessing it. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux lyta 2.6.0-usbnet #1 Mon Jan 5 18:21:59 EST 2004 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages xserver-common depends on: ii debconf 1.4.2 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii xfree86-common 4.2.1-15 X Window System (XFree86) infrastr -- debconf information excluded
