gnutls - how will future security fixes be handled
Just a question for the actual goto fail of gnutls: How will such security issues be handled in future? Will gnutls be patched in the 1.0.41.x?
We have moved to a new Sailfish OS Forum. Please start new discussions there.

The gnutls (and any other sec. vuln.) will be patched/fixed as soon as possible.
@bart - I don't know the release process in Jolla but... it would be feasable, after all, SailfishOS can work as most desktop distribution in this regard: publish the rpm on the repository, and the package can be upgraded on its own, without "bumping" any global version.Actually, unless you need to update major parts of the system, it would be the best way to handle upgrades...
