10 userv (1.1.0) unstable; urgency=medium
13 * Do not reject comments and blank lines inside not-being-executed
14 conditional clauses. (Closes: #613862.)
16 Important Debian packaging fix:
17 * Remove /var/run/userv from the .deb.
18 (Along with the change in 1.0.6 this Closes: #630528.)
20 General minor improvements (relevant outside Debian):
21 * Introduce a use of socklen_t to avoid a compiler warning.
22 * Remove spec.html and spec.ps from revision control.
23 * Revision control switched from cvs to git.
24 * Update my email address.
26 Debian packaging minor improvements and bugfixes:
27 * The new version will ensure a rebuild and therefore completely deal
28 with the debiandoc-sgml missing documentation bug. (Closes: #413873.)
29 * Use lintian for dh_fixperms; this ensures that the permissions of
30 /etc/userv in the .deb are 755, not 2755.
31 * Use `command -v' instead of `type' in maintainer scripts.
32 * Do not ignore errors from commands in rules clean target.
33 * Fix FSF address in copyright file.
34 * Remove obsolete local variable section from debian/changelog.
35 * Update Standards-Version. No changes required.

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

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

86 Packaging improvements (including Debian packaging fixes):
87 * Compress uservd(8) manpage. Closes: #244735.
88 * spec.tex and spec.html are autogenerated: clean and .cvsignore them.
89 * SHELL=/bin/bash in debian/rules; use of install(8). Closes: #263979.
90 * Reran autoconf/autoheader (autoconf Debian 2.13-54).
91 * Updated copyright notices.

102 userv (1.0.3) unstable; urgency=medium
105 * Make require-fd work with reading fds !
106 (Thanks to Ben Harris for the bug report).
107 * Close unwanted pipes in client-side cat subprocesses, to avoid
108 wedging at termination. (Thanks to patchlet from Peter Benie.)
109 * gid_t may be >int, so cast to long when putting in USERV_GIDS
110 (Might conceivably make USERV_GIDS be wrong on some platforms.)
111 * Do not pass char to ctype macros; they can't cope with -ve !
112 * Fix fd modifier, signal, and exit status parsing to be rigourous in
113 their use of strtoul. (Thanks to report from Peter Benie.)
116 * #include <fcntl.h>, not <sys/fcntl.h> (fixes some implicit decls).
117 * Look for gmd5sum. (Thanks to Anton Altaparmakov for the report.)
118 * install-sh updated to that from autoconf 2.53.
119 * Use fcntl F_{GET,SET}FD with respect for as-yet-uninvented fd flags.
120 (small patch from Ben Harris.)
122 Documentation and help improvements:
123 * userv(1) manpage: fixed broken definitions of fd excl and trunc.
124 (Debian bug report: Closes: #79579.)
125 * Specification's usage notes section improved.
126 * --help and --version behaviour made to conform to GNU standards.
127 * We do ship m4 and flex output now, so say so.
128 * Some groff warnings in userv(1), and source version fixed.
129 * New userv(8) manpage. (Debian: Closes: #33777.)
130 * Update copyright dates everywhere.
132 Debian packaging improvements:
133 * Priority changed to optional as per override file.
134 * Build-Depends: debiandoc-sgml, tetex-bin, tetex-extra. Closes #190615.
135 * init.d reload is noop, restart now called restart. Closes #70783.
136 * /etc/init.d/userv nicer output: colons, `.' printed after done.
137 * Maintainer scripts use invoke-rc.d if it's available.
138 * Maintainer scripts discard stdout from update-rc.d.
139 * No more messing with /usr/doc, use only /usr/share/doc. Closes #91578.

141 * Fixed typo in debian/copyright.
142 * /etc/init.d/userv restart doesn't mind if not already running.

156 IMPORTANT SECURITY FIX:
157 * fd swapping algorithm would sometimes corrupt security-critical data
158 used to generate the service program's USERV_ environment variables.
159 For details see the 1.0.1 announcement in the userv-announce archives.
161 Portability improvement:
162 * Look for `md5' as well as `md5sum' - installs easier on BSDs.

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

199 * setenv emulation using putenv works properly (previously you would get
200 wrong environment variable settings). (Thanks to Ben Harris.)
201 * Makefile bug fixed (tokens.h would sometimes not be rebuilt).
203 * Regenerated formatted documentation (spec.ps, spec.html).

216 * md5sum with extra `-'.
217 * -lsocket required for socket().
218 * missing `LOG_AUTHPRIV'.
219 * `logname' name clash.
220 * missing setenv() (synthesize using putenv).
221 * various required #include's were omitted.
222 * install rule in Makefile `if ! test ...' changed to `if test ! ...'

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

331 in overlord.c; PIPEMAXLEN etc. #defines include cast to int to avoid
