>Description:
when we a vulnerability entry for a package, the following message is
printed regardless of which version i'm installing.
*** WARNING: Vulnerabilities in this package ***
what "this package" means here is rather unclear to me.
- did I install some binary that is vulnerable?
- or, there are vulnerabilities in the past and the version
I'm using is okay?
i'm using bsd.pkg.mk revision 1.579.
