mDNSResponder

Hi,

How to resolve mDNSResponder-108 package conflict.

I get this error -

Code:
mDNSResponder-108 --corrupted stack crash when parsing bad resolv.conf
 
Well, when running portaudit I see this for a quite long time now:
Code:
*** starting PORTAUDIT ***
Database created: Sa 17 Jul 2010 02:00:01 CEST
Affected package: mDNSResponder-214 (matched by mDNSResponder<=214)
Type of problem: mDNSResponder -- corrupted stack crash when parsing bad resolv.conf.
Reference: <http://portaudit.FreeBSD.org/1cd87e2a-81e3-11df-81d8-00262d5ed8ee.html>

1 problem(s) in your installed packages found.

You are advised to update or deinstall the affected package(s) immediately.                                                                                                         
*** PORTAUDIT finished ***

As far as I understand this warning there is no danger as long as /etc/resolv.conf can be properly parsed by mDNSResponder. I.e. file should not contain characters that are not expected in this file or missformatted IP numbers could be a problem. But I do not know this for sure.
 
You may try setting environment variable (temporarily!)
Code:
setenv DISABLE_VULNERABILITIES yes
or
use option of make
Code:
make -DDISABLE_VULNERABILITIES install clean
