            Bug ID: 226860
           Summary: [UPDATE] dns/bird: update to 1.6.4 - security release
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: freebsd at dns.company

JFYI; today Bird 1.6.5 released (and Bird 2.0.2 also);
a security release as birdc could DoS systems when it's in restrictive mode.


I'm still working on a patch, but the large firewall patch is making it
difficult, but I do not wish to break it. But as I've never all that code it's
a bit complicated at once.

However of the other patches than that one which were in the 1.6.4 port I
clearly saw they all became absolete.


The additional entry in MASTER_SITES should be removed (as last version added
was 1.5.0 in April 2015, and only will cause 404's on both ends).

https://dns.company/www/downloads/bird/ could anyway be added as additional.
