And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.
Apply four official fixes.

Fixes PR pkg/29412 from Mike M. Volokhov.
the RCD_SCRIPTS rc.d script(s) to the PLIST.
This GENERATE_PLIST idea is part of Greg A. Woods'
PR #22954.
This helps when the RC_SCRIPTS are installed to
a different ${RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR}. (Later,
the default RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR will be changed
to be more clear that they are the examples.)
These patches also remove the etc/rc.d/ scripts from PLISTs
(of packages that use RCD_SCRIPTS). (This also removes
now unused references from openssh* makefiles. Note that
qmail package has not been changed yet.)
I have been doing automatic PLIST registration for RC_SCRIPTS
for over a year. Not all of these packages have been tested,
but many have been tested and used.
Somethings maybe to do:
- a few packages still manually install the rc.d scripts to
hard-coded etc/rc.d. These need to be fixed.
- maybe remove from mk/${OPSYS}.pkg.dist mtree specifications too.
- Don't left share/doc/squid directory on deinstall.
- Apply recent 12 official patches.
- (Minor) deny_info TCP_RESET does not work
- (Minor) Digest authentication fails on URLs with comma
- (Minor) digest nonce count workarounds for broken browsers
- (Minor) external_acl hangs if defined with ttl=0
- (Minor) smb_auth.pl (multi-domain-NTLM) fails on domain qualified logins
- (Minor) smb_auth fails on complex logins (involving domain names or odd
characters)
- (Minor) ACL regression error introduced by earlier 2.5.STABLE2 patch
- (Cosmetic) segmentation fault in authentication if debugging enabled
- (Cosmetic) Unreachable code due to siged/unsigned errors
- (Minor) logic error in comm_select.
- (Minor) wb_group update to 1.2 to add support for domain qualified goups
- (Minor) Segmentation fault when using negated external acls
pkgsrc change: install some supplemental documents.
Changes to squid-2.5.STABLE2 (Mars 17, 2003):
- Contrib files added back to the distribution
- Several compiler warnings fixed when using --disable-ident or
--disable-http-violations
- authentication can now be used in most access controls, but
must in most cases first be enforced in http_access to force
the user to authenticate.
- cleanups in the developer bootstrap.sh process when preparing
the sources.
- several squid.conf.default documentation updated to correctly
refer to the current names when refering to other directives
- authenticate_ip_ttl documentation updates
- several assertion faults and segmentation violations corrected
- the RunCache/RunAccel and squid.rc scripts updated to refer to
the squid binary in sbin rather than the old bin location.
- squid_ldap_auth command line processing fixes when specifying
the LDAP server last on the line instead of -h option
- aufs data corruption bugfix
- aufs performance improvement for low traffic systems
- aufs stability improvements
- external_acl corrected to properly deal with quoted strings
- WCCPv1 bugfix to make sure the router accepts the hash assignments
- "Total accounted memory" now correctly reported in cachemgr
- several small memory leaks (mostly reconfigure related)
- new squid.conf option to allow GET/HEAD requests with a request
entity
- "make uninstall" no longer removes squid.conf
- cachemgr.cgi now uses POST to avoid having the cachemgr password
logged in the web server logs
- authentication schemes which are known to not be proxyable are now
filtered out from forwarded server replies to avoid that the clients
tries to use such schemes when we know for a fact it won't work
- spelling corrections in various error messages
- now possible to define acl values with spaces in them
by using the "include file" feature
- squid_ldap_group updated to 2.10 to fix compilation issues with
recent (and older) OpenLDAP libraries and to make the helper deal
correctly with true LDAP groups by first looking up the user DN.
- Some internal code cleanups
- now verifies that programs etc exists iside the chroot directory
when using chroot_dir. No longer neccesary to set up a split view
environment where the same paths works both inside the chroot and
outside just to convince Squid that the files is actually there..
- improved memory usage reporting
- --disable-hostname-checks configure option
- no longer ignores double dots in host names. Any hostname with
double dots is now rejected as invalid.
- log_mime_hdrs no longer logs garbage if very long headers
are seen.
- 'select_fds_hist' object added to cachemgr 'histogram' output
- pid file now unlinked when squid has really shut down, not
immediately when the shutdown request is received. This allows
the pid file to be monitored to determine when Squid has shut down
properly
- correct authentication scheme setups on some platforms or compilers
- several squid.conf.default documentation updates to remove references
to renamed or replaced directives by changing them to their current
names.
- the SSL reverse proxy support updated to allow building with
OpenSSL 0.9.7 and and later.
- Corrected a minor performance problem while processing HEAD replies
from various broken web servers not sending a correct HTTP reply
- time acls can now specify multiple times in the same acl name, like
most other acl types.
- winbind helpers updated to match Samba-2.2.7a and should
work with Samba-2.2.6 or later (required). For compability with
older Samba versions A new configure option --with-samba-sources=...
has been added to allow you to specify which Samba version the
helpers should be built for if different than the above versions.
- Squid MIB definition syntax correction to work better with newer
(and older) SNMP tools.
- Fixed access.log format when logging "error:invalid-HTTP-ident" on
requests where parsing the HTTP identifier (HTTP/1.0) failed.
- "make distclean" no longer removes the icons, this avoids the
dependency on "uudecode" to rebuild Squid after "make distclean"
- User name returned by external acl lookups (external_acl_type)
is now available as "ident" in later acl checks in addition to
the logging in access.log.
- Incorrect behaviour of Digest authentication partly corrected - it
will not handle sessions, but will always enforce password
correctness.. (patch submitted by Sean Burford).
- Issue with persistent connections and PUT/POST request corrected
- Apply disabled official patch since the patch's content has corrected.
* Impossible to define acls with spaces in them
- Remove "@unexec ${RMDIR} %D/etc/squid ..." line from PLIST since
there is already removing directory line which use more generic
PKG_SYSCONFDIR variable.
to OPTIONAL_FILES in Makefile.
This fix a problem when setting SQUID_CONFIGURE_ARGS in /etc/mk.conf
without --enable-external-acl-helpers=unix_group.

Now try to install more authentication modules, but those modules
should be handled by proper frame work (Curretly, SASL modules
aren't handled).
Changes to squid-2.5 ():
- Major rewrite of proxy authentication to support other schemes
than basic. First in the line is NTLM support but others can
easily be added (minimal digest is present). See Programmers Guide.
(Robert Collins & Francesco Chemolli)
- Reworked how request bodies are passed down to the protocols.
Now all client side processing is inside client_side.c, and
the pass and pump modules is no longer used.
- Optimized searching in proxy_auth and ident ACL types. Squid should
now handle large access lists a lot more efficiently.
(Francesco Chemolli)
- Fixed forwarding/peer loop detection code (Brian Degenhardt) -
now a peer is ignored if it turns out to be us, rather than
committing suicide
- Changed the internal URL code to obey appendDomain for internal
objects if it needs appending. This fixes weirdnesses where
a machine can think it is "foo.bar.com", and "foo" is requested.
(Brian Degenhardt)
- Added the use of Automake to create the Makefile.in's in the squid
source tree. This will allow libtool in the future, and immediately
allows better dependency tracking - with or without gcc - as well
as the dist-all and distcheck targets for developers which respectively
build a tar.gz and a tar.bz2 distribution, and check that what will be
distributed builds.
- Added TOS and source address selection based on ACLs,
written by Roger Venning. This allows administrators to set
the TOS precedence bits and/or the source IP from a set of
available IPs based upon some ACLs, generally to map different
users to different outgoing links and traffic profiles.
- Added 'max-conn' option to 'cache_peer'
- Added SSL gatewaying support, allowing Squid to act as a SSL server
in accelerator setups.
- SASL authentication helper by Ian Castle
- msntauth updated to v2.0.3
- no_cache now applies to cache hits as well as cache misses
- the Gopher client in Squid has been significantly improved
- Squid now sanity checks FTP data connections to ensure the
connection is from the requested server. Can be disabled if
needed by turning off the ftp_sanitycheck option.
- external acl support. A mechanism where flexible ACL checks
can be driven by external helpers. See the external_acl_type
and acl external directives.
- Countless other small things and fixes
- HTML pages generated by Squid or CacheMgr as well as the
ERR documents now contain a doctype declaration so that
browsers know which HTML specification the document uses.
In addition to that they have a new look (background-color, font)
and are valid according to the HTML standards at www.w3.org.
(Clemens Löser)
- Login and password send to Basic auth helpers is now URL escaped
to allow for spaces and other "odd" characters in logins and
passwords
- Proxy Authentication is no longer blindly forwarded to peer
caches if not used locally. If forwarding of proxy authentication
is desired then it must now be configured with the login=PASS
cache_peer option.
- Responses with Vary: in the header are now cached by squid.
(Henrik Nordstrom).
- Removed unused 'siteselect_timeout' directive.
Remove `-p' from mkdir arguments, it is already part of ${MKDIR}.
While here substitute a couple of ${PREFIX} by `%D' in
`@exec ${MKDIR} ...' lines and add a couple of missing `%D' in such lines too!

This fix will be contained in squid 2.5 release.
o setproctitle() hack for external dnsserver from daemonnews's article.
installed into "etc/squid" (and are not moved arround after installation).
The message of the install script matches the actual layout again and is
adapted to changes to "SQUID_SYSCONFDIR".
