Ubuntu Security Notice USN-194-2
9th January, 2006
texinfo regression bug fix
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 5.10
- Ubuntu 5.04
Details
USN-194-1 fixed a vulnerability in the 'texindex' program.
Unfortunately this update introduced a regression that caused the
program to abort when cleaning up temporary files (which are used with
extraordinarily large input files). The updated packages fix this.

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package version:
- Ubuntu 5.10:
- texinfo
- Ubuntu 5.04:
- texinfo
