Linux broken + security risk

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message 

Installed a brand new installation of Euphoria 2.5 on Debian (Sarge).
All attempts to execute Euphoria generate the following:

/usr/local/euphoria/bin# ./exu
Error opening terminal: xterm.

Exactly how to I debug this?  The previous version of Euphoria worked
properly.


Also, over a year ago I sent a private mail to the developers pointing out
that their default Linux install leaves many of the files world-writable,
files which are later executed.  This is a major security risk.  The response
was "Thanks, I'll try to keep that in mind for the next release".

Guess they forgot.  Maybe a more public posting will help.
