<PRE>Hi

We are currently shiping aria2-1.11.1.

However latest version is 1.11.2 which slightly improve security when
using authenticated
media by hiding them from process viewers (ps, ...):

<A HREF="http://sourceforge.net/news/?group_id=159897">http://sourceforge.net/news/?group_id=159897</A>
&quot;The username and password specified in command-line are now masked with
&quot;*&quot; immediately after parsed, so that ps cannot show username and password.&quot;

Since that does not happen for most users and since we don't provide auth media,
that's not a immediate concern, so should we update for Mageia 1?

See you
</PRE>
