New comment by eli-schwartz on void-packages repository

Comment:
Note this is based on https://github.com/xsf/xeps/pull/894 which got NACKed by the author and closed without merging.

@Neustradamus has proceeded to trick various people into applying this specific patch, including at https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/68766 by claiming it's a critical security vulnerability (the severity got corrected prior to the bug being rejected), and the actual discussion in https://github.com/gkdr/libomemo/issues/24 seems to consist of more or less everyone being mad at @Neustradamus for circumventing actual development processes and pushing, randomly and inconsistently, at select distributors to use downstream patches that are under dispute.

I recommend reverting it and seeking upstream guidance. e.g.

https://github.com/gkdr/libomemo/issues/24#issuecomment-735408224
> please stop pushing downstream changes, it makes the whole situation even more confusing.
