From dd16dcbba4a69b85b64ac043cebee5a8538c4fb4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joachim Fasting Date: Sun, 27 Mar 2016 20:05:21 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] linux_grsec_3_14: mark as broken First, The patch is outdated, I failed to find it anywhere in the mirror repos. Second, the build fails, and while it may be "fixed" by ad-hoc patching (it appears to simply need some missing includes), this would mean shipping a potentially insecure software package. Given that the only reason to use grsecurity is security, this is both misleading and exposes users to undue risk. Finally, the build has been broken for quite a long time with no complaints, leading me to believe that the number of actual users is quite low. --- pkgs/os-specific/linux/kernel/linux-grsecurity-3.14.nix | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/pkgs/os-specific/linux/kernel/linux-grsecurity-3.14.nix b/pkgs/os-specific/linux/kernel/linux-grsecurity-3.14.nix index a67a91b4d0c4..da6286207642 100644 --- a/pkgs/os-specific/linux/kernel/linux-grsecurity-3.14.nix +++ b/pkgs/os-specific/linux/kernel/linux-grsecurity-3.14.nix @@ -1,5 +1,7 @@ { stdenv, fetchurl, perl, buildLinux, ... } @ args: +throw "grsecurity stable is no longer supported; please update your configuration" + import ./generic.nix (args // rec { version = "3.14.51"; extraMeta.branch = "3.14";
