Newsbeuter is an open-source RSS/Atom feed reader for text terminals.
It runs on Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X and other Unix-like operating systems.
Newsbeuter's great configurability and vast number of features make it a
perfect choice for people that need a slick and fast feed reader that can
be completely controlled via keyboard. It's the Mutt of RSS feed readers.
Originally packaged in pkgsrc-wip by Claudio M. Alessi.
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.
Previously there were at least 5 different ways MACHINE_ARCH could be set,
some statically and some at run time, and in many cases these settings
differed, leading to issues at pkg_add time where there was conflict
between the setting encoded into the package and that used by pkg_install.
Instead, move to a single source of truth where the correct value based on
the host and the chosen (or default) ABI is determined in the bootstrap
script. The value can still be overridden in mk.conf if necessary, e.g.
for cross-compiling.
ABI is now set by default and if unset a default is calculated based on
MACHINE_ARCH. This fixes some OS, e.g. Linux, where the wrong default was
previously chosen.
As a result of the refactoring there is no need for LOWER_ARCH, with
references to it replaced by MACHINE_ARCH. SPARC_TARGET_ARCH is also
removed.
Existing SHA1 digests verified, all found to be the same on the
machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). Existing SHA1
digests retained for now as an audit trail.

* innxmit: tidy up GetMessageID buffer handling In theory, if you
could get a message with an empty message-id header through
before anything else, it would call memcpy(NULL, p, 0) which
(surprisingly) has undefined behavior. This doesn't seem a very
likely contingency but I tidied up the code to avoid it and
(hopefully) be clearer anyway.
Thanks to Richard Kettlewell for the patch.

2015-05-14 iulius
* Add Richard Kettlewell as a contributor
* Correct remap check in tradindexed lookup
The check was off by one; and when it happened, it invalidated
the 'parent' pointer, causing a use-after-munmap (or
use-after-free) condition.
Thanks to Richard Kettlewell for the bug report.
* Correctly flush CNFS buffers when nfswriter is true in inn.conf
* Correct remap check in tradindexed group lookup
Previously the remap check had an off-by-one bug and moreover
would never be done due to the loop condition (making the
off-by-one bug moot).
This one could be a problem in real life; if creating a group
causes innd to expand the index then an already-running nnrpd
will not automatically notice, and so won't be able to find the
group.
Thanks to Richard Kettlewell for the patch.
* nnrpd/commands.c: paranoid checking of AUTHINFO GENERIC reply
Check the number of arguments returned by AUTHINFO GENERIC.
Thanks to Richard Kettlewell for the patch.
* innfeed/connection.c: avoid violating C aliasing rules
The object was written as a 'struct sockaddr' but then read as a
'struct sockaddr_storage', which violates C99 s6.5#7. The fix is
to always access it as a 'struct sockaddr' and use a union to
ensure enough space for any possible address type.
Thanks to Richard Kettlewell for the patch.
* nnrpd/commands.c: correct sense of PERMgeneric reply
The comment has always been wrong, as well as the return value
for ~15 years...
Thanks to Richard Kettlewell for the patch.
* nnrpd/perm.c: don't dereference a null pointer if there are no
access groups
Thanks to Richard Kettlewell for the patch.
* nnrpd/article.c: A wrong variable was used for vhost feature.
Since these are created by the local innd, the error should not
normally occur.
Thanks to Richard Kettlewell for the patch.
* Verify that setuid() and setgid() actually succeed
See: https://lwn.net/Articles/451985/ for a discussion of the
issues in this area.
The checks in newuser.c are probably unnecessary due to the
subsequent tests. rnews.c is straight-up broken though.
Thanks to Richard Kettlewell for the patch.

* expire/fastrm.c: Fix a dereferencing issue
* configure.ac: Build fix for current Mac OS X versions

clang: error: no such file or directory:
'/usr/local/news/lib/libinn.3.dylib' make[1]: *** [libinn.la]
Error 1 make: *** [all-lib] Error 2
The reason is the '-multiply_defined'-part of the command line.
This switch is marked as obsolete in ld(1):
-multiply_defined treatment Previously provided a way to warn or
error if any of the sym- bols used from a dynamic library were
also available in another linked dynamic library. This option is
obsolete.

* Fix GCC 5.1.0 warning for incompatible pointer type
Rename the "U" macro used by two tests to "SUC" (casting to
String of Unsigned Chars) because it otherwise conflicts with how

When lots of lines are present in error log files, they appear in

Restrict the number of lines to 50 (the default value for unknown
lines from news.notice).
Thanks to Jeffrey M. Vinocur for the bug report.
* nnrpd: Count write time stats when using SASL
* Improve the count of sleeping channels
The highest file descriptor of sleeping channels was not always
properly updated. A new CHANresetlastsleeping() function now does
the job when called.
Also prevent innd from crashing if a channel is supposed to sleep
but does not have a Waker set.

As the CRIME attack is not exploitable in NNTP, disabling TLS

* inn.conf: Improve documentation about tlsprotocols and
tlscompression
2014-11-11 iulius
* Improve tuning of the SSL/TLS configuration
nnrpd's TLS support is basically using OpenSSL's defaults WRT
issues such as protocol support and cipher suites. In these days
of POODLEs and other vulnerabilities, it should be useful to be
able to have better control over what's offered. So this patch
adds a few options to inn.conf:
- tlsprotocols: allows to select the SSL/TLS versions that are
supported
- tlsciphers: allows to give an OpenSSL cipher string to tailor
the cipher suites that are offered to clients
- tlspreferserverciphers: switches on the server-side selection
of the cipher suite (TLS default is "client chooses")
- tlscompression: allows to turn off TLS compression (because of
the CRIME attack) if the OpenSSL version supports this.
Many thanks to Christian Mock for his patch.

cnfsstat
Instead, make these two scripts sleep by themselves.
Also update documentation: improve the list of actions done by
rc.news, and no longer mentions that innd should be throttled
before being stopped (this is not true - the shutdown process
already does the actions throttling does).
* innwatch: add -i flag to specify how many seconds to sleep at
startup
- Also fix previous commit [9651] that did not totally fix the
issue it was supposed to fix.
- Fix the behaviour of the -f flag (it wasn't doing anything).
- Fix how the -l flag was parsed (a space was required between -l
and its argument, whils it should not have been required).
- Add new POD documentation for innwatch, and update it at the
same time: document new -i flag, and document already existing -f
flag.
* cnfsstat: add -i flag to specify how many seconds to sleep at
startup
Update documentation, and homogenize POD syntax at the same time.

* Re-add second $(LIBSTORAGE) when linking backends
Backend commands (such as nntpget) linked with both history and
storage libraries list $(LIBSTORAGE) in the link line twice. This
isn't a mistake; there are some unfortunate circular dependencies
that require listing $(LIBSTORAGE) both before and after
$(LIBINNHIST) in the link line or static linking will fail.

On a few systems like AIX, innupgrade failed to run during an

"never" instead of January, 1st 1970 as the last run date. *
Improve spaces, uppercase characters and singular forms when 1
article is retrieved. * Update the config file even when the

Enable the -m flag to remove headers matching (or not) a given

* innwatch: no longer creates a child process for sleeping
innwatch creates a child process only for sleeping and then waits
on that process. The forked-off process is not killed by 'rc.news
stop' (only its parent is), and will only die after it's done
sleeping. If running under SMF on illumos/Solaris, this causes
the service to likely drop into maintenance state (since not all
processes die within timeout).
Thanks to Lauri Tirkkonen for the patch.

pkgsrc changes:
- patches/patch-a[ab] are no longer needed
Changes:
- Added IPv6 support to get_tcp_socket() using a ever-so-slightly-tweaked
patch from Olaf 'Rhialto' Seibert.
- Misc bug fixes and improvements
- Performance optimization, reported by Gary R. Schmidt.
- Fix a file descriptor leak in fetchnews.c's getbody_newno function
- When complaining that we are unable to switch the user ID, report the
current real and effective user IDs to ease debugging.
- Leafnode now enables IPv6 support by default. Use --without-ipv6 to disable.
- Leafnode now supports detecting if a peer is in a local network also
for IPv6 global addresses, providing that the host OS provides getifaddrs().
This comprises Linux, NetBSD, FreeBSD, but not, for instance, Solaris 10.

Changes since 1.0.0
1. An issue with the wrap_width variable was fixed.
Changes since 0.9.9p1
1. src/charset.c: Avoid using CODESET if it is not defined.
2. doc/slrn.1: Remove blank line at top of file. (Ignatios Souvatzis)
3. src/Makefile.in: /bin/sh on solaris does not like empty lists in a
for loop causing make install to fail. Workaround added
(Petr Sumbera).
4. src/mime.c: rewrote much of the email address encoding/decoding so
that only comment fields in email addresses are encoded/decoded.
slrn is also smarted in encoding/decoding other headers (based on
patch from Robert Grimm).
5. autoconf/Makefile.in: Added dependencies such that if the
Makefile.in and config.in files have been modified, the user is
told to re-run the configure script.
6. Updated the copyright years to 2009.
7. src/mime.c: Omit the mime headers if the content is pure 7bit.
Also, if mime-headers already exist, do not add append additional
ones.
8. configure: Added the configuration option --with-non-gnu-iconv that
can be used to indicate that local version of iconv is not
compatible with GNU iconv (Piotr 'aniou' Meyer).
9. src/charset.c: Upon failure, slrn_test_convert_lines will return the line
that caused it to fail.
10. src/charset.c: If the --debug option is given, slrn will write the
strings that iconv failed to convert to the log file.
11. src/post.c: Skip long line checks between verbatim marks. (Robert
Grimm).
12. src/nntplib.h: Removed duplicate declarations of nntp_server_cmd
and nntp_server_vcmd. (Li Hong).
13. src/decode.c: If an output file already exists, create a new one
by appending an integer to the name.
14. src/slrn.c: work around a SLang_getkey bug that arises when the
underlying read system call is interrupted, and the interrupt hook
creates a different read descriptor.
15. src/misc.c: All error messages (including slang tracebacks) are
logged to the --debug output file.
16. src/art.c,etc: If an article has invalid headers, clear the error
but give the article an initial score of -1000. This number may
be customized using the "invalid_header_score" variable.
17. src/mime.c: In slrn_mime_process_article, decode headers even if
Content-Type is not understood and metamail is needed.
18. src/art.c: Avoid a buffer overflow when reconstructing huge
threads. Thanks to Robert Grimm for finding the problem.
19. src/version.c: %d format was used to print a long integer.
20. src/nntplib.c: slrn user "narke" discovered that his server will
disconnect if an attempt is made to post an empty body. slrn does
this after authenticating with the server to verify that posting
is possible. As a work-around, the response comment from the
AUTHINFO command is parsed.
21. src/sltcp.c: Add support for gnutls logging functions.
22. src/chkslang.c: Fixed a sscanf format issue involving long long
integers.
23. src/sltcp.c: Change 21 needed #ifdef SLTCP_HAS_GNUTLS_SUPPORT.
24. src/nntplib.c: A comparison in #20 should have used != instead of
==.
25. doc/slrn.rc: "utf8" changed to "utf-8" (Thomas Wiegner).
26. src/art_misc.c: Increased the search range for a pgp signature.
27. src/misc.c: The rline_update callback function was not handling
the case where no prompt (prompt==NULL) was associated with the
readline object. (M. G. Berberich)
28. src/vfile.c: Add explicit void* to char* cast for better C++
compliance.
29. doc/tm/: Updated the Makefile and rebuilt the docs
30. src/interp.c, art.c: Added support for an optional argument to the
replace_article function that dictates if the article should be
mime processed.
31. src/*: Updated copyright year and trimmed extra whitespace.
32. macros/mime.sl: Added initial support for multipart mime messages.
See macros/mime.sl for additional information.
33. macros/mime.sl;src/*.c: More support for processing multipart mime
messages, including the ability to save/view the various parts of
a message.
34. src/misc.c:generic_read_input: If point is negative, regard it as
an offset from the end of the string. Changes were also made to
the callers of this function accordingly.
35. macros/mailcap.sl: If an executable does not exist on the search
path, skip the mailcap entry.
36. src/interp.c: Added "replace_cooked_article", which is like
to "replace_article", but does not affect the raw lines. mime.sl
was updated to use this.
37. macros/mime.sl: Added an option to the browse menu that permits
the full raw article to be viewed.
38. macros/mime.sl: Added a more informative message when a mime
article is encountered.
39. src/mime.c: A couple of strncmp calls used the wrong length (Patched
by Thomas Wiegner).
40. macros/mime.sl: The boundary subkeyword was not being detected in a
case-insensitive way. Also the wrong filename was mentioned in
the usage comments. (Christian Ebert)
41. macros/mime.sl: Add an option to view all parts of a mime
multipart message.
42. Added a top-level win32 directory containing scripts for building
slrn using MinGW on a Windows system. See doc/INSTALL.w32 for
details.
43. src/*.c: Various win32-specific tweaks to avoid some warnings
generated by MinGW's gcc.
44. win32/msinstall.sl: Use $prefix/share/man instead of $prefix/man
for the directory where man pages are installed.
45. doc/THANKS updated.
46. updated autoconf/config.guess and autoconf/config.sub
47. doc/THANKS rearranged.
48. src/art_misc.c: New config variable: "wrap_width", which sets the
width that will trigger wrapping.
49. doc/: Updated txt docs from slrn doc project's svn repos.
50. Version 1.0 released [Dec 21, 2012].
Changes in 2.5.4
* An up-to-date control.ctl file is provided with this release. You
should manually update your control.ctl file with the new information
recorded about Usenet hierarchies.
* A test has been improved in innwatch.ctl so that innwatch no longer
throttles innd when no overview directory exists. You should manually
update your innwatch.ctl file to get this improvement.
* Fixed a long-standing limitation on how controlchan and pgpverify were
checking the signer of control messages. They now properly handle the
case of several UIDs being defined on a single PGP key, as well as the
presence of spaces into UIDs. In previous versions of INN, a few
valid control messages got ignored because of that limitation
(fido.ger.* and grisbi.* were for instance impacted).
* As the name of the radius.conf configuration file shipped with INN for
the nnrpd authenticator against a RADIUS server conflicts with the
libradius package, this file is renamed to inn-radius.conf (innupgrade
takes care of the rename during the update).
* The attributes hash is now accessible to nnrpd Perl posting filter.
As a result, filter_nnrpd.pl can make use of it. Only authentication
and access Perl hooks could previously use the attributes hash.
Thanks to Steve Crook for this addition.
* INN now properly builds fine with flex 2.5.36 (this version introduced
a change of type for a variable used by INN).
* When using funnel feeds, innfeed log files were open forever, which
resulted in empty log files, once rotated by scanlogs. innfeed now
reopens its log files upon receiving a HUP signal; this signal is in
particular sent by scanlogs during log rotation. Thanks to Florian
Schlichting for the patch.
* Exploder and process channels are now reopened when "ctlinnd
flushlogs" is used. Otherwise, they could hold open an already
deleted errlog file. The issue affected in particular controlchan or
ninpaths, running as such channels.
* Fixed a buffer overflow when using imapfeed with more than a million
commands during the same IMAP session. Thanks to David Binderman for
the bug report.
* Fixed a segfault occurring in innd on systems where time_t is a 64-bit
integer. Thanks to S.P. Zeidler for the patch.
* Fixed a segfault occurring in nnrpd when a res block was used in
readers.conf without the program: key.
* Fixed an issue where users were denied posting because of an
overlapping buffer copy in a check nnrpd was doing. Thanks to Florian
Schlichting for the patch.
* Fixed a regression that occurred in INN 2.5.3 regarding the path used
by default by pullnews for its configuration file. Instead of looking
in the running user's home directory, it was looking in the *pathnews*
directory set in inn.conf. Thanks to Tony Evans for the bug report.
* When neither wget nor ncftpget nor ncftp was found at configure time,
the path to the simpleftp substitution program shipped with INN was
not properly set in innshellvars, innshellvars.pl, and the
"INN::Config" Perl module. Thanks to Christian Garbs for the bug
report.
* ckpasswd no longer tries to use the ndbm compatibility layer provided
by Berkeley DB if Berkeley DB has been built without ndbm support.
Also add support for gdbm libraries in ckpasswd.
* Fixed a Perl warning in inncheck; using "defined(@array)" has been
deprecated since Perl 5.16.
* Fixed the occurrence of an unexpected "cant select" error generated by
innd. Thanks to Paul Tomblin for having caught that long-standing
issue.
* When building INN with Berkeley DB support, no longer add -L/usr/lib
to the linker include flags; unconditionally adding it may break the
build on systems using lib32 and lib64 directories.
* On a fresh INN install, motd.innd and motd.nnrpd are no longer
installed by default. Instead, samples for these files are provided
in *pathetc*, named differently so that their default contents are not
displayed to news clients before they get customised.
* Other minor bug fixes and documentation improvements (like the
addition in the readers.conf man page of the log: and program:
parameters in res blocks, and the include directive).
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.
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.
