It also exposes a service for potential privilege escalation if there is any bug found in it. - We don't have infinite space on the rootfs, and when we run out of space, we might want to be able to reclaim some. + +However nowadays the same can be done more easily within Trisquel +now. And we can work with Trisquel to fix security issues within (the) +Guix (daemon) when they appear. |
