Hi

As far as I know, the linux_base packages and the port itself are based on
RedHat 7.x. RedHat 7.x and 8.x reached end of life at the end of last year
(2003-12-31). 9.x will reach it's end of life on the 30th of April 2004.
There are no more security updates availble for redhat 7x/8x, and most
probably neither for the current linux_base system.

Are there any plans to switch to another linux distribution as base package?

cheers
Thomas Vogt
