1 userv (1.0.2) unstable; urgency=low
3 * Specification's usage notes section improved.
4 * --help and --version behaviour made to conform to GNU standards.
5 * userv(1) manpage: fixed broken definitions of fd excl and trunc.
6 * #include <fcntl.h>, not <sys/fcntl.h> (fixes some implicit decls).
7 * gid_t may be >int, so cast to long when putting in USERV_GIDS
8 (Might conceivably make USERV_GIDS be wrong on some platforms.)
9 * Do not pass char to ctype macros; they can't cope with -ve !
12 * Priority changed to optional as per override file.
16 userv (1.0.1.1potatp.1) unstable; urgency=low
19 * FHS transition (closes #91578)
20 * Corrected location of common licenses
21 * Added -isp to dpkg-gencontrol

25 userv (1.0.1) stable frozen unstable; urgency=high
27 IMPORTANT SECURITY FIX:
28 * fd swapping algorithm would sometimes corrupt security-critical data
29 used to generate the service program's USERV_ environment variables.
30 For details see the 1.0.1 announcement in the userv-announce archives.
32 Portability improvement:
33 * Look for `md5' as well as `md5sum' - installs easier on BSDs.

47 * Count \-continued lines properly in error message line numbers.

54 userv (0.65.2) unstable; urgency=high
56 * In client, copy results from getpw* when necessary. This fixes what
57 could be a security problem on some platforms.
58 * Avoid accessing backup, auto-save files, etc, with include-lookup.
59 Everything except a-z 0-9 - _ must now be prefixed by a colon.
60 * Allow \ to continue lines (and do sensible things with whitespace in
61 `message' and `error' directives).

67 * New "shutdown" builtin service for terminating uservd.
68 * Spec. document shows subsections in TOC.
70 * setenv emulation using putenv works properly (previously you would get
71 wrong environment variable settings). (Thanks to Ben Harris.)
72 * Makefile bug fixed (tokens.h would sometimes not be rebuilt).
74 * Regenerated formatted documentation (spec.ps, spec.html).

80 * New builtin service `help' lists builtin services.
83 * Document locations of required programs.
84 * Sort-of document debugging version.
86 Portability fixes for:
87 * md5sum with extra `-'.
88 * -lsocket required for socket().
89 * missing `LOG_AUTHPRIV'.
90 * `logname' name clash.
91 * missing setenv() (synthesize using putenv).
92 * various required #include's were omitted.
93 * install rule in Makefile `if ! test ...' changed to `if test ! ...'
95 Build arrangements changed (new GNU coding standards targets etc):
96 * m4 and flex output now shipped.
97 * `dist' target in Makefile.
98 * Manuals in CVS and shipped pre-formatted.
100 * Reran autoconf/autoheader, latest version.
101 * Updated email address to ian@davenant.greenend.org.uk throughout.

112 userv (0.60.2) frozen unstable; urgency=high
114 * Fixed failure to save pathnames in a couple of places in parser.c.
115 Without this, include-directory would often try to open a garbage
116 filename. This could be a security problem in certain cases where
117 user-owned config files were included from sysadmin-defined files,
118 and the sysadmin wants to control how a user provides services.
120 * Fix "-quoted strings, which previously never worked at all.
122 * Fixed spurious failure with `Interrupted system call' on systems
123 where fread can fail due to read giving EINTR (blech!)
125 * Fixed race when fd closed at startup, which could cause
126 `system call failure: kill cat for <fd>: No such process'.
128 * Fixed spurious assertion failure if user's home directory not
130 * Fixed a couple of memory and fd leaks in error exits from
131 include-directory and include-lookup in parser.c.
133 * Debian and `upstream' version integrated; Changelogs merged.
135 * Provided `system.default' file checks /etc/userv/services.d and
136 /etc/userv/default.d; system.override runs /etc/userv/override.d.
138 * Add <string.h> to servexec.c.
139 * Add -D_GNU_SOURCE to CFLAGS in configure.in.
140 * Braces added in client.c to prevent GCC `ambiguous else' warning.
143 * autoconf-generated files included in CVS.
145 * Debian package description mentions use by system admin.

184 * Server now checks itself every hour to see if its socket has been
185 stolen, and exits if it has.
186 * Client only retries connect(2) on EINTR (and does so silently).
187 * All of even master server's syslog messages have pid.
188 * Don't delete spec.sgml.in in clean targets.

200 * Added <sys/types.h> and <errno.h> to lexer.l.m4.
201 * <sys/wait.h> instead of <wait.h>; %d instead of %ld for WEXITSTATUS
202 in overlord.c; PIPEMAXLEN etc. #defines include cast to int to avoid
203 problems with sizeof and size_t; EPROTO missing workaround.

205 to INSTALL file in new PROBLEMS section.
