finch does not compile with python-3.3. Since libpurple is not versioned
and finch pulls it in, we have to mark libpurple too, and then pidgin
because of libpurple. It's all one codebase anyway...
version 2.10.8 (1/28/2014):
General:
* Python build scripts and example plugins are now compatible with
Python 3. (Ashish Gupta) (#15624)
libpurple:
* Fix potential crash if libpurple gets an error attempting to read a
reply from a STUN server. (Discovered by Coverity static analysis)
(CVE-2013-6484)
* Fix potential crash parsing a malformed HTTP response. (Discovered by
Jacob Appelbaum of the Tor Project) (CVE-2013-6479)
* Fix buffer overflow when parsing a malformed HTTP response with
chunked Transfer-Encoding. (Discovered by Matt Jones, Volvent)
(CVE-2013-6485)
* Better handling of HTTP proxy responses with negative Content-Lengths.
(Discovered by Matt Jones, Volvent)
* Fix handling of SSL certificates without subjects when using libnss.
* Fix handling of SSL certificates with timestamps in the distant future
when using libnss. (#15586)
* Impose maximum download size for all HTTP fetches.
Pidgin:
* Fix crash displaying tooltip of long URLs. (CVE-2013-6478)
* Better handling of URLs longer than 1000 letters.
* Fix handling of multibyte UTF-8 characters in smiley themes. (#15756)
Windows-Specific Changes:
* When clicking file:// links, show the file in Explorer rather than
attempting to run the file. This reduces the chances of a user
clicking on a link and mistakenly running a malicious file.
(Originally discovered by James Burton, Insomnia Security. Rediscovered
by Yves Younan of Sourcefire VRT.) (CVE-2013-6486)
* Fix Tcl scripts. (#15520)
* Fix crash-on-startup when ASLR is always on. (#15521)
* Updates to dependencies:
* NSS 3.15.4 and NSPR 4.10.2

Patched for https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=668154

session.
Gadu-Gadu:

triggerable by a Gadu-Gadu server or a man-in-the-middle.
(Discovered by Yves Younan and Ryan Pentney of Sourcefire VRT)
(CVE-2013-6487)
* Disabled buddy list import/export from/to server (it didn't work
anymore). Buddy list synchronization will be implemented in 3.0.0.

didn't work either. Account registration also caused a crash. Both
functions are available using official Gadu-Gadu website.
IRC:

a crash by not sending enough arguments with various messages.
(Discovered by Daniel Atallah) (CVE-2014-0020)

Cyrus SASL support. (#15517)

(Discovered by Fabian Yamaguchi and Christian Wressnegger of the

(Discovered by Fabian Yamaguchi and Christian Wressnegger of the
University of Goettingen) (CVE-2013-6482)

matches the 'to' address of the iq request. (Discovered by Fabian
Yamaguchi and Christian Wressnegger of the University of Goettingen)
(CVE-2013-6483)
* Fix crash on some systems when receiving fake delay timestamps with
extreme values. (Discovered by Jaime Breva Ribes) (CVE-2013-6477)
* Fix possible crash or other erratic behavior when selecting a very
small file for your own buddy icon.
* Fix crash if the user tries to initiate a voice/video session with a
resourceless JID.
* Fix login errors when the first two available auth mechanisms fail but
a subsequent mechanism would otherwise work when using Cyrus SASL.
(#15524)
* Fix dropping incoming stanzas on BOSH connections when we receive
multiple HTTP responses at once. (Issa Gorissen) (#15684)

either because they themselves are not ready or because a
dependency isn't. This is annotated by
PYTHON_VERSIONS_INCOMPATIBLE= 33 # not yet ported as of x.y.z
or
PYTHON_VERSIONS_INCOMPATIBLE= 33 # py-foo, py-bar
respectively, please use the same style for other packages,
and check during updates.
Use versioned_dependencies.mk where applicable.
Use REPLACE_PYTHON instead of handcoded alternatives, where applicable.
Reorder Makefile sections into standard order, where applicable.
Remove PYTHON_VERSIONS_INCLUDE_3X lines since that will be default
with the next commit.
Whitespace cleanups and other nits corrected, where necessary.

sitting on this package since 20130101, so it was a year ago...)
XXX: this should probably grow an rc script for the master daemon, phoned.

KGB is a system that provides notifications on IRC for commits made to Git,
Subversion and CVS repositories. It uses two components: a server, which
runs the IRC bot, and a client, which is hooked into the repositories and
sends the notifications to the server.
