noffle (1.1.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New maintainer upload, closes: #173756.
  * New upstream release:
    closes: #120175 (graceful handling of sudden disconnection),
    closes: #166559 (filter crosspostings to gmane.spam.detected),
    closes: #174882 (--help for ordinary users).
  * Updated depends, recommends, suggests, provides, package description,
    debhelper compatibility level, Debian standards version.
  * Fixed possible strcpy() buffer overflows in src/configfile.c,
    src/fetchlist.c, src/protocol.c, src/server.c, closes: #168128.
  * Let noffle switch to news:news on startup when root is calling, prevents
    root exploits and bad ownerships in the spool directory, e.g. when running
    'noffle --query' as root. Removed 'su' in init and cron scripts according
    to that change. Group-writeable spool directories are not longer needed.
  * Let notification about failed posting preferably be sent to the Reply-To
    address, closes: #156952.
  * Fixed noffle homepage link, closes: #173743.
  * Rewrote config scripts: removed Perl dependency, fixed script idempotency,
    closes: #82462, #112225.
  * Moved /etc/noffle/conf.debian to /etc/default/noffle, according to policy,
    and /etc/noffle/conf to /etc/noffle.conf.
  * Moved /var/spool/noffle/lock to /var/lock/noffle, so it will be cleaned on
    system startup by /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh.
  * Deprecated /var/log/noffle, since cron.daily's output is logged by syslog
    anyway, so syslog's news facility should be used instead.
  * Added resource files for slrn and Emacs Gnus, taken from docs/NOTES.
  * Removed INSTALL, noffle.lsm, and testing.txt from /usr/share/doc/noffle,
    because they do not carry information useful to the end user.
  * Added Lintian and Linda overrides to silence warning about news-owned
    spool directories.
  * Updated README.Debian.
  * Added logcheck configuration and debian/watch.
  * Thanks to Paul Slootman for sponsoring this package.

noffle (1.0.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
  * This version should fix occasional database corruption.
  * Added German template translation; thanks to Sebastian Feltel
    <sebastian @ feltel.de>. closes:#101011
  * Clarified initial usage in README.Debian. This closes:#100759
    but I think that the running as user "news" needs to be detected
    int the app (also mentioned in the bug report).
  * Clean up permissions of db files in the postinst, and also in the
    cron.daily script. closes:#78835
  * /etc/noffle/conf and /etc/noffle/conf.debian aren't marked as
    conffiles anymore, as they are manipulated by scripts. And they
    hardly ever will change anyway.
  * Extract current values from config files (if they exist) and put those
    into debconf in config script.
