The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

 Youps! Then it was my error. I just think that suidmanager was just 
another program that I don't know to facilate life. Whatever, do 
/etc/suid.conf is standard or not? If yes, than using suidmanager is jsut 
a must. If not, I think registering suid programs it's a good security 
thing.

again, just my 2 pennies :)
