That is just saying that if the security issue is a problem for

Thanks but I think I now understand even less :) If a security
issue is a problem, don't upgrade???

My understanding of the issue is under some situations cups-base may
allow an attacker to execute arbitary commands (not sure with what privs)


Not sure also how one could go ahead? There is no option to
continue. The message appears and that's all. I am not given any
option.

Remove the "FORBIDDEN=" line in the makefile
