view debian/changelog @ 390:2ad4c1c97734 noffle

[svn] * src/client.c: Return correct status from Client_postArt() and add function comment detailing what return code should be, because it's not obvious that the return code should report success when the posting failed for reasons other than connection problems. This should fix problem with failing posting stopping fetches. Thanks to Dan Jacobson for spotting this. * src/client.c: Fix problemette with filter discards not updating remote group article count and so the overview being refetched until and article appears that doesn't fall foul of the filter and thus does update the remove group 'next article' marker. Thanks to Dan Jacobson for spotting this. * src/content.c: Don't be fooled into thinking a filename starting ".." is just "..". * src/outgoing.c: Don't assume "." and ".." are the first files returned from readdir(). Thanks to Andreas Happe for spotting this. * src/noffle.c: Update online help to include 'm' group posting status. * src/server.c: Move incorrect updating of server.grp in doGrp() which was causing doGrp() to not retrieve remote article details when in online mode. Thanks to Miernik and Andreas Happe for reporting the problem.

noffle (1.0.1-1.1.woody.1) stable; urgency=medium

    Explanation: noffle was run as user root in /etc/init.d/noffle, and
    created a root-owned lock file, which prevented noffle from being run
    as user news from inetd, cron scripts, etc.

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.
