# Patch: [0]
# Gentoo used to lack a maintainer for this package.
# A security problem arose. While reviewing our options for how
# should we proceed with the security bug we decided it would be
# better to just stay in sync with debian's own netkit-telnet
# package. Lots of bug fixes by them over time which were not in
# our telnetd.
