38 Bugfixes (thanks to report from Nelson Beebe):
39 * Do not call `assert' on expressions whose side-effects we need (!)
40 Thanks to report from Nelson Beebe.
41 * Correct an erroneous assert() argument so that it would actually
42 detect failure of the assertion.
43 * alarm(2) returns unsigned and can never fail.
46 * Reran flex (flex Debian 2.5.31-31).
47 * Use install -g 0 instead of -g root. This is more portable, I hope.
48 * Detect missing vsnprintf and mention URL from Nelson Beebe in err msg.
49 * Remove obsolete `buildship' script from top level directory. We use
50 cvs-buildpackage nowadays.

54 userv (1.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
57 * Close client socket fd in spawned cats (avoids some service-side hangs
58 when client terminates). Thanks to report from Simon Tatham.
60 Minor portability fixes:
61 * Missing #include <string.h> and <stdlib.h> } Thanks to report
62 * getgroups returns int, not gid_t (!). } from Peter Benie.

64 * Bogus strsignal emulation for broken platforms. } report from
65 * Bogus WCOREDUMP emulation for broken platforms. } Nelson Beebe
67 Packaging improvements (including Debian packaging fixes):
68 * Compress uservd(8) manpage. Closes: #244735.
69 * spec.tex and spec.html are autogenerated: clean and .cvsignore them.
70 * SHELL=/bin/bash in debian/rules; use of install(8). Closes: #263979.
71 * Reran autoconf/autoheader (autoconf Debian 2.13-54).
72 * Updated copyright notices.

83 userv (1.0.3) unstable; urgency=medium
86 * Make require-fd work with reading fds !
87 (Thanks to Ben Harris for the bug report).
88 * Close unwanted pipes in client-side cat subprocesses, to avoid
89 wedging at termination. (Thanks to patchlet from Peter Benie.)
90 * gid_t may be >int, so cast to long when putting in USERV_GIDS
91 (Might conceivably make USERV_GIDS be wrong on some platforms.)
92 * Do not pass char to ctype macros; they can't cope with -ve !
93 * Fix fd modifier, signal, and exit status parsing to be rigourous in
94 their use of strtoul. (Thanks to report from Peter Benie.)
97 * #include <fcntl.h>, not <sys/fcntl.h> (fixes some implicit decls).
98 * Look for gmd5sum. (Thanks to Anton Altaparmakov for the report.)
99 * install-sh updated to that from autoconf 2.53.
100 * Use fcntl F_{GET,SET}FD with respect for as-yet-uninvented fd flags.
101 (small patch from Ben Harris.)
103 Documentation and help improvements:
104 * userv(1) manpage: fixed broken definitions of fd excl and trunc.

107 * --help and --version behaviour made to conform to GNU standards.
108 * We do ship m4 and flex output now, so say so.

118 * Maintainer scripts use invoke-rc.d if it's available.
119 * Maintainer scripts discard stdout from update-rc.d.
120 * No more messing with /usr/doc, use only /usr/share/doc. Closes #91578.

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

166 * In client, copy results from getpw* when necessary. This fixes what
167 could be a security problem on some platforms.
168 * Avoid accessing backup, auto-save files, etc, with include-lookup.
169 Everything except a-z 0-9 - _ must now be prefixed by a colon.
170 * Allow \ to continue lines (and do sensible things with whitespace in
171 `message' and `error' directives).

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

196 Portability fixes for:
197 * md5sum with extra `-'.
198 * -lsocket required for socket().
199 * missing `LOG_AUTHPRIV'.
200 * `logname' name clash.
201 * missing setenv() (synthesize using putenv).
202 * various required #include's were omitted.
203 * install rule in Makefile `if ! test ...' changed to `if test ! ...'
205 Build arrangements changed (new GNU coding standards targets etc):
206 * m4 and flex output now shipped.
207 * `dist' target in Makefile.
208 * Manuals in CVS and shipped pre-formatted.

222 userv (0.60.2) frozen unstable; urgency=high
224 * Fixed failure to save pathnames in a couple of places in parser.c.
225 Without this, include-directory would often try to open a garbage
226 filename. This could be a security problem in certain cases where
227 user-owned config files were included from sysadmin-defined files,
228 and the sysadmin wants to control how a user provides services.
230 * Fix "-quoted strings, which previously never worked at all.
232 * Fixed spurious failure with `Interrupted system call' on systems
233 where fread can fail due to read giving EINTR (blech!)
235 * Fixed race when fd closed at startup, which could cause
236 `system call failure: kill cat for <fd>: No such process'.
238 * Fixed spurious assertion failure if user's home directory not
240 * Fixed a couple of memory and fd leaks in error exits from
241 include-directory and include-lookup in parser.c.
243 * Debian and `upstream' version integrated; Changelogs merged.
245 * Provided `system.default' file checks /etc/userv/services.d and
246 /etc/userv/default.d; system.override runs /etc/userv/override.d.
248 * Add <string.h> to servexec.c.
249 * Add -D_GNU_SOURCE to CFLAGS in configure.in.
250 * Braces added in client.c to prevent GCC `ambiguous else' warning.
253 * autoconf-generated files included in CVS.
255 * Debian package description mentions use by system admin.
