maintainer: "Besides adding exciting new features, it also fixes a
lot of annoying and some (potentially) security relevant bugs, so I
recommend the upgrade."
"knews" was dumping core when trying to display a PNG image inline,
and now it doesn't.
Note: "Ctl-P" for UU encoded PNG's is a no-op (unrelated problem).
You'll need to have a message with a properly mime-encoded PNG image
in order to see do_png() go to work.
- Make IPv6 addresses (not names) work. You still need to specify the port
number explicitly in this case.
- Fix bug in connection loop which caused PR pkg/12329.
The version number is bumped to "1.0nb5".
using the newest PNG library won't work on system with an older one. To
prevent such problems with precompiled binary packages require at least
"png-1.0.9nb1" in all dependences.
- No busy loops when connecting to the NNTP server.
- Handle multiple records return by getaddrinfo(3) at the proper location.
- Avoid unnecessary socket creations and deletions by always passing the
correct address family to open_socket().
INN 2.3.0 represents a significant architectural change to INN, with a
completely new internal overview interface, three new overview mechanisms,
two new article storage mechanisms, and the elimination of quite a few old
interfaces and old code.
The NetBSD package furthermore includes IPv6 support and a new style
startup script with backwards compatibility.
out of date - it was based on a.out OBJECT_FMT, and added entries in the
generated PLISTs to reflect the symlinks that ELF packages uses. It also
tried to be clever, and removed and recreated any symbolic links that were
created, which has resulted in some fun, especially with packages which
use dlopen(3) to load modules. Some recent changes to our ld.so to bring
it more into line with other Operating Systems also exposed some cracks.
+ Modify bsd.pkg.mk and its shared object handling, so that PLISTs now contain
the ELF symlinks.
+ Don't mess about with file system entries when handling shared objects in
bsd.pkg.mk, since it's likely that libtool and the BSD *.mk processing will
have got it right, and have a much better idea than we do.
+ Modify PLISTs to contain "ELF symlinks"
+ On a.out platforms, delete any "ELF symlinks" from the generated PLISTs
+ On ELF platforms, no extra processing needs to be done in bsd.pkg.mk
+ Modify print-PLIST target in bsd.pkg.mk to add dummy symlink entries on
a.out platforms
+ Update the documentation in Packages.txt
With many thanks to Thomas Klausner for keeping me honest with this.
NEWSFETCH downloads network news into mail-format files.
It can also pass the fetched news articles to programs like
procmail to process them further into different folders,
forward or deliver them.

post.c: if signature is "", then do not add it.
mime.c: allow whitepspace to follow `=' continuations
art.c: update thread scores after art_xpunge
1. #v+/#v- verbatim marks may be hidden via `hide_verbatim_marks'
variable. The article mode function "toggle_verbatim_marks" may be
used to toggle the state of the marks.
2. Special characters in URLs are passed to browser in hex format.
3. BeOS system name added to version.c
4. line length check skipped in verbatim sections.
5. doc/README.macros: Mention post_file_hook
6. src/xover.c: algorithm for extracting msg-id from In-Reply-To
changed.
7. The thread tree depth maximum size (for the graphic) was increased from
32 to 256 after reworking how the graphic is stored.
8. doc/slrn.1,slrn.rc: typos fixed
9. src/startup.c: "blue" foreground colors changed to "lightgray" to
make the object standout on xterm.
10. The `Date' header may be given a color
11. macros/color.sl updated
12. New slrnrc variable: 'set check_new_groups 1'. If 0, then do not
check for new groups
13. src/post.c: Allow verbatim sections to exceed 80 character line
limit with no warning.
Changes:
- INN no longer installs inews setgid news or rnews setuid root by
default. If you need the old behavior, --enable-uucp-rnews or
--enable-setgid-inews must be given to configure. See INSTALL
for more information.
- A security hole when verifycancels is turned on in inn.conf (not
the default) was fixed.
- Message IDs are now limited to 250 octets to prevent
interoperability problems with other servers.
- Various other security paranoia fixes have been made.
- Embedded Perl filters fixed to work with Perl 5.6.0.
- Lots of bug fixes.
Add a new USE_LIBTOOL definition that uses the libtool package instead of
pkglibtool which is now considered outdated.
USE_PKGLIBTOOL is available for backwards compatibility with old packages
but is deprecated for new packages.
called tin-1.4.2.tar.bz2. Changes:
Small documentation changes, number of `hot' articles displayed in -Z
output, and a bug fix in save.c.
