Comment 1 Lewis Smith 2022-08-18 21:41:34 CEST
This package has no registered maintainer, and has almost never been touched (except an aborted 'drop-it' in 2013).

Necessarily assigning this globally.

Comment 2 Nicolas Salguero 2022-08-22 18:01:12 CEST
Suggested advisory:
========================

The updated packages fix a security vulnerability:

Move UNIX socket dir from /tmp to /run to avoid local attackers being able to place bogus directories in its stead. (CVE-2022-21950)

Comment 3 Thomas Andrews 2022-08-23 22:24:32 CEST
Installed canna, then updated, with no installation issues.

From the drakrpm description:

"Canna is a Japanese Kana-Kanji translation engine."

I do not speak Japanese, and considering Comment 1 I suspect finding a Japanese-speaking QA tester would be difficult at best. I did try to run some of the commands that had been put into /usr/bin, mostly returning some sort of syntax/user error.

For lack of a better procedure, I'm going to send this on on the basis of a clean install. 

Validating. Advisory in Comment 2.
