Upstream changes
----------------
Changes in version 3.3.14ga10, 27. April 2014
[x3270] Restored the ability to use the special 3270 fonts with code
page 1047.
Changes in version 3.3.14ga9, 13. April 2014
[all 3270] Fixed a crash when disabling tracing after opening the
trace file fails.
Changes in version 3.3.14beta8, 31. March 2014
[all 3270] Changed the keyboard to unlock when a BIND-IMAGE is received.
This matches the behavior of PCOMM and is consistent with some comments
found on IBM webpages. The net result is that the keyboard will be unlocked
(and scripts may be allowed to proceed) earlier than with previous versions
of the emulators. This is good for talking to hosts that don't send an initial
Write command (as can happen with CICS); previously this Write was the only
trigger for unlocking the keyboard at connect or BIND time. But it is bad if a
script implicitly depended on the old behavior. Scripts confused by this change
may need to add a Wait(InputField) to cover these cases.
[all 3270] Got rid of the E status for keyboard lock in the scripting prompt.
The status is now L (locked) or U (unlocked).
[all 3270] Added decoding of UNBIND reasons to traces.
[all 3270] Increased the number of situations where keyboard input can result
in typeahead instead of drops.
Changes in version 3.3.14ga6, 23. January 2014
[all] Fixed a problem with displaying text in NVT mode when the host does
no TELNET negotiation.
[all] Deprecated the dsTrace and eventTrace resources (and associated
toggles and x3270 menu options) and replaced them with a new single trace
resource and toggle. The old resources and toggles are still available, but
are effectively aliases for the new single setting.
Changes in version 3.3.14alpha5, 30. December 2013
[x3270] Turned the scrollbar on by default. Mapped the PageUp and
PageDown keys to the (new) Scroll action, to scroll up or down one screen,
respectively. Modified the Reset action to cancel any screen scrolling.
[all Windows] Got everything to build under MSVC again, using either
the command line or MS Visual Studio. A Visual Studio solution file is now
included in the source tarball. Windows targets also cross-compile again
with the latest Cygwin MinGW.
Changes in version 3.3.14alpha4, 21. December 2013
[all] Added a printTextScreensPerPage resource to control how many
screens of text are displayed per page when tracing screens to the printer.
[all] Corrected screen tracing to the printer so it observes the
printer.name and printer.command resources.
Changes in version 3.3.14alpha3, 16. December 2013
[all, wc3270] Fixed problem with message display during file
transfers initiated by scripts.
[all] Fixed a problem reading files with the Source action, when the
file does not end with a CR or NL.
Changes in version 3.3.14alpha2, 4. November 2013
[all] Added support for CICS IND$FILE file transfers.
Changes in version 3.3.14alpha1, 30. October 2013
[all] Allow file transfers to start when the screen is unformatted.
[all] Fixed a problem with the initial data stream trace snapshot
when the screen is unformatted.
A wrapper function was put around the Windows snprintf function,
to ensure that it always NUL-terminates strings. The lack of such a
wrapper could lead to string overflows in some situations.
- Support float and 32/24 bit integer output also with fixed-point decoders (conversion from 16 bit precision).
- A-Law output encoding is actually implemented now (Michael introduced the encoding back in the old days without ever implementing theconversion table, apparently).
- Added --with-cpu=arm_fpu as decoder choice for runtime switch between plain fpu code and NEON.
- Fix ARM builds to work properly on debian systems without special CFLAGS (NEON decoder, specifically).
- Make scripts/benchmark-cpu.pl check the return value instead of delivering crazy timings for crashed mpg123.
- Trigger track initialization in mpg123_info() to avoid use of uninitialized variables (watch out for MPG123_NEED_MORE return value!).
- Fix integer code to 32 bit numbers where it would waste 64 bit on modern systems.
- Add non-executable stack marking also to ARM assembly.
- auerswald
- Fix several potential security issues in the NAS server.
See http://radscan.com/pipermail/nas/2013-August/001270.html for
a description. In addition, CVE numbers have been defined for
these issues:
CVE-2013-4256
CVE-2013-4257
CVE-2013-4258
- Fixed some warnings while building some of the clients.
- narrow a possible race condition in
auvoxware.c:disableProcessFlow() reported by Paul Fox.
- steve_mcintyre
- add a format string to aulog.c (found using -Wformat-security warnings)
- Don't preprocess man pages
- Add proper includes in server/os/connection.c to prevent some
compile warnings and a possible server coredump under the right
conditions on x86_64 Linux systems.
Before, anita depended on qemu0 or qemu. Now, it has options for
qemu-0, qemu (currently 2) and xen (currently 4.1). By default, all
are off because all of them are quite large and they need only be
present at run time.
Discussed with gson@, who did not object.
NetBSD's shell, and passing the -m option to NetBSD's "su" command to support
users without login shells.
Add the PREFIX to all script PATHs. This can allow sudo to be installed and
used as an alternative to su, should there be any value in doing that.
Bump PKGREVISION.
These releases address a caching issue which might lead to cache poisoning and an incorrect validation of safe redirect targets. Since these issues will affect the majority of users we strongly encourage everyone to upgrade.
Fixed testing using relative server folder
Fixed Python v3 tests on Windows
Fix introspection for Django and Python v3
Error with unicode arguments in prepared statements
Remove the patch which included in upstream

libxkbcommon 0.4.2 - 2014-05-15
==================
- Fixed a bug where explicitly passing "--enable-x11" to ./configure would
in fact disable it (regressed in 0.4.1).
- Added @since version annotations to the API documentation for everything
introduced after the initial stable release (0.2.0).
- Added a section to the documentation about keysym transformations, and
clarified which functions perform a given transformation.
- XKB files which fail to compile during keymap construction can no longer
have any effect on the resulting keymap: changes are only applied when
the entire compilation succeeds.
Note: this was a minor correctness issue inherited from xkbcomp.
- Fix an out-of-bounds array access in src/x11/util.c:adopt_atoms()
error-handling code.
Note: it seems impossible to trigger in the current code since the input
size cannot exceed the required size.
What's new in psycopg 2.5.3
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Work around `pip issue #1630 <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/1630>`__
making installation via ``pip -e git+url`` impossible (🎫`#18`).
- Copy operations correctly set the `cursor.rowcount` attribute
(🎫`#180`).
- It is now possible to call `get_transaction_status()` on closed connections.
- Fixed unsafe access to object names causing assertion failures in
Python 3 debug builds (🎫`#188`).
- Mark the connection closed if found broken on `poll()` (from 🎫`#192`
discussion)
- Fixed handling of dsn and closed attributes in connection subclasses
failing to connect (from 🎫`#192` discussion).
- Added arbitrary but stable order to `Range` objects, thanks to
Chris Withers (🎫`#193`).
- Avoid blocking async connections on connect (🎫`#194`). Thanks to
Adam Petrovich for the bug report and diagnosis.
- Don't segfault using poorly defined cursor subclasses which forgot to call
the superclass init (🎫`#195`).
- Mark the connection closed when a Socket connection is broken, as it
happens for TCP connections instead (🎫`#196`).
- Fixed overflow opening a lobject with an oid not fitting in a signed int
(🎫`#203`).
- Fixed handling of explicit default ``cursor_factory=None`` in
`connection.cursor()` (🎫`#210`).
- Fixed possible segfault in named cursors creation.
- Fixed debug build on Windows, thanks to James Emerton.
