send-pr: security/22226: pkgsrc/mail/pine/files/pgpdecode has unsafe tmp file usage. I suggested a new package, based on FreeBSD's pine-pgp-filters port. (I closed this PR on 07/May/2004; I made the package no longer install any of these old PGP helper scripts. It suggests security/pinepgp to be used. l also packaged pine-pgp-filters for pkgsrc-wip.)
DESCR and COMMENT for both pgp2 and pgp5 packages are the same. I made a simple patch. send-pr: pkg/22227: pkgsrc/security/pgp[25]/DESCR should be different (jmmv made some fixes and closed this on 23/Jul/2003.)
In April, I noticed that /usr/libexec/virecover is missing a man page. So I wrote one and send-pr: misc/22228: a man page for virecover(8)
On Feb. 6, I was wondering where the docs for /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb were located. I wrote a man page for locate.bigram, locate.code, and locate.updatedb. Send-pr: misc/22229: man page for locate database building tools
Ran out of swap, XFree86 was killed and all my X clients closed. My xdm was unusable. I logged in remotely and killed it and restarted xdm and all was well.
The log error is:
Jul 22 14:25:16 rainier /netbsd: UVM: pid 237 (XFree86), uid 0 killed: out of swap
So I looked at /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/i386/trap.c code. I want to make the kernel sleep for a moment and retry at least one time instead of killing the process when out of swap.
