to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.8.8 -> 5.10.0.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=...").
and to support the "inet6" option instead.
Remaining usage of USE_INET6 was solely for the benefit of the scripts
that generate the README.html files. Replace:
BUILD_DEFS+= USE_INET6
with
BUILD_DEFS+= IPV6_READY
and teach the README-generation tools to look for that instead.
This nukes USE_INET6 from pkgsrc proper. We leave a tiny bit of code
to continue to support USE_INET6 for pkgsrc-wip until it has been nuked
from there as well.
the owner of all installed files is a non-root user. This change
affects most packages that require special users or groups by making
them use the specified unprivileged user and group instead.
(1) Add two new variables PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS to
unprivileged.mk. These two variables are lists of other bmake
variables that define package-specific users and groups. Packages
that have user-settable variables for users and groups, e.g. apache
and APACHE_{USER,GROUP}, courier-mta and COURIER_{USER,GROUP},
etc., should list these variables in PKG_USERS_VARS and PKG_GROUPS_VARS
so that unprivileged.mk can know to set them to ${UNPRIVILEGED_USER}
and ${UNPRIVILEGED_GROUP}.
(2) Modify packages to use PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS.
- Previous versions of INN had an optimization for handling XHDR
Newsgroups that used the Xref header from overview. While this does
make the command much faster, it doesn't produce accurate results and
breaks the NNTP protocol, so this optimization has been removed.
- Fixed a bug in innd that allowed it to accept articles with duplicated
headers if the header occurred an odd number of times. Modified the
programs for rebuilding overview to use the last Xref header if there
are multiple ones to avoid problems with spools that contain such
invalid articles.
- Fixed yet another problem with verifying that a user has permissions
to approve posts to a moderated group. Thanks, Jens Schlegel.
- Increase the send and receive buffer on the Unix domain socket used by
ctlinnd. This should allow longer replies (particularly for innstat)
on platforms with very low default Unix domain socket buffer sizes.
- rnews's handling of articles with nul characters, NNTP errors, header
problems, and deferrals has been significantly improved.
- Thomas Parmelan added support to send-uucp for specifying the funnel
or exploder site to flush for feeds managed through one and fixed a
problem with picking up old stranded work files.
- INN is now licensed under a less restrictive license (about as
minimally restrictive as possible shy of public domain), and the
clause similar to the old BSD advertising clause has been dropped.
- make install and make update now always install the newly built
binaries, rather than only installing them if the modification times
are newer. This is the behavior that people expect. make install now
also automatically builds a new (empty) history database if one
doesn't already exist.
- The embedded Tcl filter code has been disabled (and will be removed
entirely in the next major release of INN). It hasn't worked for some
time and causes innd crashes if compiled in (even if not used). If
someone wants to step forward and maintain it, I recommend starting
from scratch and emulating the Perl and Python filters.
- ctlinnd should now successfully handle messages from INN up to the
maximum allowable packet size in the protocol, fixing problems sites
with many active peers were having with innstat output.
- Overview generation has been fixed in both makehistory and innd to
follow the rules in the latest NNTP draft rather than just replacing
special characters with spaces. This means that the unfolding of
folded header lines will not introduce additional, incorrect
whitespace in the overview data.
- nnrpd now uniformly responds with a 480 or 502 status code to attempts
to read a newsgroup to which the user does not have access, depending
on whether the user has authenticated. Previously, it returned a 411
status code, claiming the group didn't exist, which confuses the
reactive authentication capability of news readers.
- If a user is not authorized to approve articles (using the A access
control in readers.conf), articles that include Approved headers will
be rejected even if posted to unmoderated groups. Some other site may
consider that group to be moderated.
- The configuration parser used for readers.conf and others now
correctly handles "#" inside quoted strings and is more robust against
unmatched double quotes.
- Messages mailed to moderators had two spaces after the colons in the
headers, rather than one. This bug has been fixed.
- A bug that could cause heap corruption and random crashes in innd if
INN were compiled with Python support has been fixed.
- Some problems with innd's tracking of article size and enforcement of
the configured maximum article size have been fixed.
- pgpverify will now correctly verify signatures generated by GnuPG and
better supports GnuPG as the PGP implementation.
- INN's code should now be more 64-bit clean in its handling of size_t,
pointer differences, and casting of pointers, correcting problems that
showed up on 64-bit platforms like AMD64.
- Improved the error reporting in the history database code, in inews,
in controlchan, and in expire.
- Many other more minor bug fixes, optimization improvements, and
documentation fixes.
backslashes anymore. A single backslash is enough. Changed the
definition in all affected packages. For those that are not caught, an
additional check is placed into bsd.pkginstall.mk.
make does not understand the "W" option in :C modifiers, and it
handles substitution in strings containing spaces somwheat differently.
Bump PKGREVISION.
variable name that can change between autoconf versions, just set
VARNAME, which should always be correct.
Also, note that inn needs yacc to build, and uses gzip in the installed
scripts. Bump the PKGREVISION to 4.
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).
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
USE_GCC2 or USE_GCC3 where appropriate.
the functionality of the old gcc.buildlink2.mk has been rolled into
compiler.mk now, which is automatically used.
more changes to come later...
