Description Tomáš Chvátal 2011-06-28 12:01:10 UTC 
Version:           2.4.0 (using KDE 4.6.4) 
OS:                Linux

There are various part of krusader that are just copied files / complete 3rd party libs that should not be included and krusader rather should depend on them properly.
Bundling libraries can pose security threat and also disallows users to benefit from feature updates.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Just browse the source code

Actual Results:  
Bundled code/libs are found.

Expected Results:  
Nothing copied from other projects is found

These are the things i was able to identify:
tar/tar.{h,cc} - kdelibs provided ktar.h and friends.
iso/libisofs - is bundled library from http://libcdrom.sourceforge.net/libisofs.html at version 0.2, current version is at 0.4.
Comment 1 Davide Gianforte 2020-05-03 05:08:08 UTC 
Tar code is no more used. Libisofs does not provide relevant changes to the current code.
