FedoraForum.org has been designated the Official Community Support Forum
of the Fedora Project. This decision has been made by comittee because
of the many advantages web forums have over mailing lists in support of
end-users. Nothing changes about the existing mailing lists, but we
encourage end-users to go to the forums first if they have support
questions. Development discussion remains unchanged on designated
mailing lists.

forums here. Post questions in the appropriate forum, and any threads
that you participate can notify you via e-mail when someone replies. It
is generally very easy to skip over threads that you don't care about,
and find those that you do care.

[SECURITY] Fedora Core 3 Update: sharutils-4.2.1-22.1.FC3
by than
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-281
2005-04-01
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 3
Name : sharutils
Version : 4.2.1
Release : 22.1.FC3
Summary : The GNU shar utilities for packaging and unpackaging shell
archives.
Description :
The sharutils package contains the GNU shar utilities, a set of tools
for encoding and decoding packages of files (in binary or text format)
in a special plain text format called shell archives (shar). This
format can be sent through e-mail (which can be problematic for regular
binary files). The shar utility supports a wide range of capabilities
(compressing, uuencoding, splitting long files for multi-part
mailings, providing checksums), which make it very flexible at
creating shar files. After the files have been sent, the unshar tool
scans mail messages looking for shar files. Unshar automatically
strips off mail headers and introductory text and then unpacks the
shar files.
Install sharutils if you send binary files through e-mail.
