Well here is the problem... Some “Client” APPS also build a local server to work. Most P2P clients do this because they are also a server for incoming/shared traffic. So it depends on what you are using or might use in the future. I can’t see Ubuntu/Mint just letting this go without a security patch update. If I can get caught up I will go read chatter on the Mint forums to see what they are saying about it.
Thanks for the link- I’ll check it out too.
