François, All,

On 2022-09-20 21:03 +0200, Francois Perrad spake thusly:
> fix CVE-2021-41072
> 
> remove upstream patch
> add a new patch

OK, so looking at the diffstat, it is obvious that a patch is added.
What the cmmit log should state, is why it is added:

    squashfs-tools will try by default to build manpages, but that
    fails in our case because [reason]. So, we disable building manpages
    by setting USE_PREBUILT_MANPAGES=n.

And thus you can see that probably we do not need the patch. Or if we
do, then tweak the explanations above to explain why we can't use
USE_PREBUILT_MANPAGES=n and thus need a patch to remove the call to
../generate-manpages/install-manpages.sh

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
