for all pkgsrc dir/file ownership rules. Fixes unprivileged
user/group names from leaking into binary packages, manifest as
non-fatal chown/chgrp failure messages at pkg_add time.
Bump respective packages' PKGREVISION.
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
pkgsrc chages: use full distfile instead of non version indivisual module files.

running an individual module's uninstall action
* Add an DEINSTALL_TEMPLATE file that is pulled in by all wbm-* modules
that will run the module's uninstall action at DEINSTALL time.
* Fix the "time" module to ignore "sched_mode" -- verified by Jamie
Cameron on the Webmin mailing list as a bug.
* Fix the "postfix" module to remove its temp files at DEINSTALL time
so that we cleanly pkg_delete.
Bump the PKGREVISION of sysutils/webmin as well as all sysutils/wbm-*
packages that have uninstall.pl scripts.
+ Add a wbm.mk makefile fragment which can be used to create pkgsrc-managed
Webmin modules.
! Fixed a possible remotely exploitable security hole caused by a bug
Webmin's use of the Perl syslog function.
* Multiple Webmin users and groups can be deleted at once.
* The Webmin Servers Index module can automatically scan for new servers
on the local network on a regular schedule.
* The idle automatic logout time can be configured on a per-user basis
in the Webmin Users and Usermin Configuration modules.
* Increased the speed of Webmin configuration reloads done by the
Webmin Users and Webmin Configuration module. This also prevents any
down-time while the config is being re-read.
* Improved the timeout detection in HTTP requests, to reduce the ability
of incorrect or malicious clients to tie up the Webmin webserver
process.
* Enhanced the Unix User Authentication feature to allow different
users and group members to be treated as different Webmin users.

versions will be automatically supported.
* Different SSL certificates for virtual IP interfaces can be specified
in the Webmin and Usermin modules, for sites doing SSL virtual hosting.
* Fixed a nasty bug that could cause configuration file permissions
and ownership to be changed when they are modified.
* An option has been added in the Webmin Configuration module to enable
full PAM conversations when logging in. This is necessary for systems
on which PAM asks for more than just a username and password.
* All modules now use a new API for writing to configuration files,
which ensures that the file does not get written to or truncated if
the system is out of disk space.
* Added a button to the Webmin Actions Log module for rolling back
configuration files to before an action was taken.
* Password timeouts are now enabled by default, to prevent brute-force
password guessing attacks.
INSTALL/DEINSTALL script creation within pkgsrc.
If an INSTALL or DEINSTALL script is found in the package directory,
it is automatically used as a template for the pkginstall-generated
scripts. If instead, they should be used simply as the full scripts,
then the package Makefile should set INSTALL_SRC or DEINSTALL_SRC
explicitly, e.g.:
INSTALL_SRC= ${PKGDIR}/INSTALL
DEINSTALL_SRC= # emtpy
As part of the restructuring of the pkginstall framework internals,
we now *always* generate temporary INSTALL or DEINSTALL scripts. By
comparing these temporary scripts with minimal INSTALL/DEINSTALL
scripts formed from only the base templates, we determine whether or
not the INSTALL/DEINSTALL scripts are actually needed by the package
(see the generate-install-scripts target in bsd.pkginstall.mk).
In addition, more variables in the framework have been made private.
The *_EXTRA_TMPL variables have been renamed to *_TEMPLATE, which are
more sensible names given the very few exported variables in this
framework. The only public variables relating to the templates are:
INSTALL_SRC INSTALL_TEMPLATE
DEINSTALL_SRC DEINSTALL_TEMPLATE
HEADER_TEMPLATE
The packages in pkgsrc have been modified to reflect the changes in
the pkginstall framework.
around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl
executable.
include:
* Added the new Bandwidth Monitoring module, for generating simple
reports of network traffic by port, time and host on Linux systems.
* Added the Cluster Copy module, for copying files to multiple servers
either on schedule or manually.
* Added the Backup Configuration Files module, for backing up and
restoring config files known to Webmin.
* Several improvements to the Linux firewall module, including pre-
and post commands, cluster support and the ability to reset the
firewall configuration.
* Support for selecting specific MySQL and PostgreSQL tables to back
up, and improved searching in the MySQL module.
* Automatic email notification for users approaching their disk quotas.
* The timezone can now be set in the System Time module on Linux,
Solaris and FreeBSD.
* Added the new Sarg Squid access reporting module. Thanks to Omar
Armas for sponsoring its development.
* Added support for NFSv4 to the Disk and Network Filesystems module.
* In the MySQL and PostgreSQL modules, all databases can now be backed
up at once, either manually or on a configured schedule.
* Added the ability to delete multiple users at once to the Users and
Groups module.
* Added support for MD5 encryption for Webmin passwords, to avoid the
8-character effective password length limit.
* The BIND module can now create and edit delegation-only zones.
* When PAM is used for Unix authentication, expired passwords are now
detected and the user is prompted to select a new password (if this
feature is enabled on the Webmin Configuration module).
under share/examples/rc.d. The variable name already was named
RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR.
This is from ideas from Greg Woods and others.
Also bumped PKGREVISION for all packages using RCD_SCRIPTS mechanism
(as requested by wiz).
Webmin is a web-based interface for system administration for Unix.
Using any browser that supports tables and forms, you can setup user
accounts, Apache, DNS, file sharing and so on. Webmin consists of a
simple web server, and a number of CGI programs which directly update
system files.
