Upload security verification

Item posted by Sergey Poznyakoff <gray> on Sun Jan 3 10:53:20 2010.

In response to the discovery of a potential security problem in Automake versions up to 1.11 (CVE-2009-4029), Puszcza now enforces a security verification procedure on distribution uploads. Any uploaded tarball whose top-level Makefile.in contains this security hole will be rejected. Please, make sure the tarballs you upload are created using Automake v. 1.11.1 (or later).

For more information on CVE-2009-4029, refer to http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.autotools.announce/131.
