A security and bug fix release. The security aspect is to mitigate the
"billion laughs" denial-of-service attack against XML parsers and XMPP
servers.
Other changes:
- Reject XML DTDs, comments and processing instructions, preventing
the "billion laughs" attack
- Switch to MEDIUMTEXT in the schema for MySQL to avoid truncating
large data (such as large avatars)
Prosody automatically upgrades the table in-place if possible, see:
http://prosody.im/doc/mysql
- Fix for endless loop when parsing certain invalid JSON
- Fix PostgreSQL compatibility in prosody-migrator
- Fix timestamp parsing for DST (affecting MUC scrollback retrieval)
- mod_legacyauth now correctly disabled for unencrypted connections by default
- Components properly inherit SSL settings and certificates from their
'parent' hosts
- Prevent startup with no VirtualHost entries in the config file

John: Just a quick release for a security fix here. Elliott has not
yet had a chance to work on the MSN breakage that's been present in
the last couple releases, but we hope he can do it before 2.7.10!
Changes 2.7.8:
Elliott: OK, so I know a few things broke with the last release, and
it's too bad we had to rush it for that silly certificate thing that
the MSN people can't configure properly. I've certainly done a lot of
small fixes this time, but it's too bad we haven't been able to get the
transfers with the official client fixed yet. I promise it'll be in
the next release (barring any quick security issues).
John: So, it's been about a month since we last released. Again, we've
assembled a bugfix release for your enjoyment. While a few commonly
reported bugs remain, particularly in MSN, we're working on it for the
next release. In the meantime, Merry Christmas and enjoy!
Changes 2.7.7:
John: Well, this time around, we should finally have the certificate
issue really and fully fixed for all of you MSN users. Also, we have
a few AIM-related fixes in this release, most notably the fix for the
new "SSL Handshake Failure" message some of you got after upgrading.
That one was an oversight on our part. Enjoy the fixes!
and sysutils/nautilus-sendto to use the new devel/glib2/schemas.mk logic to
properly recompile the GSettings database during install/deinstall.
Bump PKGREVISION for these packages.
(This lets evince work in my machine; it would crash on startup because
it would not find its schema. I suspect this also fixes all the other
applications mentioned in this change. And the inclusion of schemas.mk
also prevents these packages from causing side-effects on the system if
they happen to call glib-compile-schemas during their build.)

-D_SOCKADDR_LEN to CFLAGS.OSF1. DU has system headers that sometimes
provide the 4.4BSD length field and sometimes not, depending on which
_FOO_SOURCE things you define and other factors. The package's
configure script isn't coping; it's not fully clear why but it looks
like it's using different CFLAGS for configure tests and building, or
something like that...

alternative from mk/jpeg.buildlink3.mk
This allows selection of an alternative jpeg library (namely the x86 MMX,
SSE, SSE2 accelerated libjpeg-turbo) via JPEG_DEFAULT=libjpeg-turbo, and
follows the current standard model for alternatives (fam, motif, fuse etc).
The mechanical edits were applied via the following script:
#!/bin/sh

compile BitlBee with OTR encryption support, if you want, without any need
for patches/alternative branches.
* Many more fixes, small changes, etc. Just read the full non-bzr changelog for
all details.
Konversation 1.3.1 is a maintenance release that improves program behavior
and fixes defects.
Konversation 1.3 debuts a major new feature in the area of
Direct-Client-to-Client (DCC) support: An implementation of the DCC
Whiteboard extension that brings collaborative drawing - think two-player
Kolourpaint - to IRC. It also brings back the integration with KDE's SSL
certificate store the KDE 3 version enjoyed and expands support for
auto-away to the Windows and Mac OS X platforms thanks to both recent
advances in the KDE 4 platform and new code in Konversation. Interface
tweaks, new keyboard shortcuts and many bugfixes round things out.
Prosody is a flexible communications server for Jabber/XMPP written in Lua.
It aims to be easy to use, and light on resources. For developers it aims
to be easy to extend and give a flexible system on which to rapidly develop
added functionality, or prototype new protocols.
(Based on wip/prosody.)
0.85 - 9/10/2010
* Pretends to be iChat instead of an old version of AIM,
due to AIM blocking older clients
* Please note that bsflite is no longer in active development.
Any updates at this point will be minor. Since I do not use
AIM myself these days I am interested in finding somebody
interested in taking over bsflite development.

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=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.
sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the
way. Thanks!
changes:
- Add properties to get the Farsight2 session and stream
- Recognize the shm transmitter
- Ignore invalidly empty strings in tp properties
- Fix -Wshadow warnings
Unreal3.2.8.1
- Fixes a security issue, which is exploitable (crash) when allow::options::noident
is in use.
Unreal3.2.8
==[ NEW ]==
- set::level-on-join: this defines which privileges a user receives when creating a
channel, default is 'chanop', the only other available setting is 'none' (opless).
- Away notification through WATCH: This allows clients to receive a notification
when someone goes away or comes back, along with a reason, a bit like IM's.
There's probably no current client supporting this but it would be a nice feature
in notify lists. Client developers: see Changes file for full protocol details.
This feature can be disabled by setting set::watch-away-notification to 'no'.
- Spamfilter: Slow spamfilter detection: For each spamfilter, Unreal will check,
each time it executes, how long it takes to execute. When a certain threshold is
reached the IRCd will warn or even remove the spamfilter. This could prevent a
spamfilter from completely stalling the IRCd. Warning is configured through
set::spamfilter::slowdetect-warn (default: 250ms) and automatic deletion is
configured by set::spamfilter::slowdetect-fatal (default: 500ms).
You can set both settings to 0 (zero) to disable slow spamfilter detection.
This feature is currently not available on Windows.
- SSL: set::ssl::server-cipher-list can be used to limit the allowed ciphers
- SSL: To specify when an SSL session key should be renegotiated you can use
set::ssl::renegotiate-bytes <bytes> and set::ssl::renegotiate-timeout <seconds>.
- UHNAMES support: This sends the full nick!ident@host in NAMES which can be
used by clients for their IAL. mIRC, Klient, etc support this.
- There have also been some behavior changes, which can be considered NEW, see
next section (CHANGED).
==[ CHANGED ]==
- IPv6: On IPv6 servers you no longer have to use ::ffff:1.2.3.4 IP's for IPv4 in the
config file, you can use the simple 1.2.3.4 form, as they are converted automatically.
- When someone is banned and /PARTs, the part reason (comment) is no longer shown
- ChanMode +S/+c: now strips/blocks 'reverse' as well
- Smart banning is now disabled by default because it was too annoying, this means that
f.e. if there's a ban on *!*@*.com then you can still add a ban on *!*@*.aol.com
- except ban { } now also protects against ZLINEs and ban ip { }
- Modules: user modes and channel modes without parameters (eg: +X) no longer have
to be PERManent, this means they can be upgraded/reloaded/unloaded on-the-fly.
==[ MAJOR BUGS FIXED ]==
- Zip links issue (Overflowed unzipbuf)
- Crash issue with 3rd party modules that introduce new channel modes w/parameters
- Mac OS X: Various issues which prevented the IRCd from booting up
- Remote includes (constant) crash with new curl/c-ares versions
- A few rare crash issues, including a crash when linking to another server
- In case of clock adjustments, the IRCd will no longer freeze when the time is
adjusted backwards, nor will it incorrectly throttle clients when adjusted forward.
However, because clock adjustments (time shifts) of more than xx seconds are
so dangerous (and will still cause a number of issues), big warnings are now
printed when they happen.
Morale: synchronize your system clock, or use the built-in timesync feature.
==[ MINOR BUGS FIXED ]==
- CGI:IRC: Several IPv6 issues, both on IPv6 IRCd's and CGI:IRC gateways
- IP masks in oper::from::userhost sometimes didn't match when they should
- (G)ZLINE's on IPv6 users were sometimes rejected
- CHROOTDIR works again
- OperOverride fixes
- Throttling is now more accurate
- And more... see Changelog
While here, fixes PR#43618 (getline) and set LICENSE=gnu-gpl-v2.

Fix PR pkg/43329
- Version 1.2.7 (released 2010-05-15) hilights:
* Resolved MSN Messenger login issues.
* Twitter module now uses OAuth, so it'll still work after June.
* Various other fixes and small feature additions.
- Version 1.2.6a (released 2010-04-19) hilights:
* (1.2.6a because the original 1.2.6 release had one unfortunate bug in the
Twitter module.)
* Twitter support! (Implemented by Geert Mulders.)
* Fixed issues with MSN friendly names getting lost by allowing to store
them locally (see the local_display_name MSN setting.), and worked around
problems when talking to offline MSN contacts (see the
switchboard_keepalives MSN setting).
The usual bug fixes and small feature enhancements.
- Version 1.2.5 (released 2010-03-17) hilights:
* Full support for non-away status messages.
* Ability to generate nicknames from the contact's full name, making
Facebook's XMPP server work much better with BitlBee.
* Lots of misc. bug fixes and small feature enhancements.
Features:
* Add active_window_ignore_refnum option With active_window_ignore_refnum ON, the current behavior for the active_window key (meta-a by default) is preserved: it switches to the window with the highest activity level that was last activated. With active_window_ignore_refnum OFF, the old behavior is used: it switches to the window with the highest activity level with the lowest refnum. (by Matt Sparks, bug #667)
* Show new Charybdis +q list in channel windows (numerics 728 and 729).
* Allow servers to belong to multiple networks.
* Improve paste detection. Irssi now detects a paste if it reads at least three bytes in a single read; subsequent reads are associated to the same paste if they happen before 'paste_detect_time' time since the last read. If no read occurs after 'paste_detect_time' time the paste buffer is flushed; if there is at least one complete line its content is sent as a paste, otherwise it is processed normally.
* Show "target changing too fast" messages in the channel/query window.
* Use default trusted CAs if nothing is specified. This allows useful use of -ssl_verify without -ssl_cafile/-ssl_capath, using OpenSSL's default trusted CAs.
* Show why an SSL certificate failed validation.
* Make own nick and actions use default colour instead of white (by Tim Retout).
Bugfixes:
* Change some characters illegal in Windows filenames to underscores in logs
* Fix disconnects when sending large amounts of data over SSL
* Show all nicks instead of just the first in an /accept * listing (Bug #704)
* Make several signals without parameters available to perl again. In particular, this includes the "beep" signal (by Matt Sparks, bug #674)
* Close the config file fd after saving (by Sven Wegener)
* Check if an SSL certificate matches the hostname of the server we are connecting to.
* Fix bash'isms, use command -v instead of which and use bc -l in /CALC.
* Fix a crash with handling the DCC queue.
* Fix crash when checking for fuzzy nick match when not on the channel. Reported by Aurelien Delaitre (SATE 2009).
* Unlimit file descr. to 1024 for c2s, as in c2s configuration file.
* Allow -Os (instead of -O1) as a work-around 64-bit compiler bug.
* Router patch.

was successful without the apparently required buildlinking.

2.6.2 (09/05/2009):
Mark: Woo boy it's been a busy two weeks. There was a lot of new code
in 2.6.0, and with new code comes new bugs. The cadre of relentless
developers responsible for Pidgin have been hard at work, and I believe
they have fixed all the major bugs that cropped up. My thanks to all
those names listed as Current Developers in Pidgin's 'About' window.
Elliott: Well now, just as Mark said, there was a lot of new stuff that
probably came up with tons of bugs. So I can't say I wrote anything
super-awesome, but I definitely fixed quite a few of those itty-bitty
why-didn't-this-work-this-way sort of bugs.

This release introduces some regressions: proxies and keep-alive aren't
supported any more. These features will be back in future releases.
Dependencies:

Enhancements:
* Add the ability to send a message when terminating a VoIP call (wjt)
* Add ContactSearch channels using spec draft 2 (wjt, cassidy)

===================================
The “a page out of Remembrance of Things Past and a blowtorch with which

created and are still present when we re-join the muc. These tubes are now
listed in Tubes.ListTubes(). fd.o #23678. (cassidy)
* Don't send the same disco request to the same (full) JID more than once. fd.o
#23841. (wjt)

===================================
The “tape two fried eggs over your eyes and walk the streets of Paris for an
hour” release.
Enhancements:
* Improve jid validation, so that obviously-invalid jids are rejected.
(daf)
Fixes:

telepathy-gabble 0.8.1 (2009-08-20)
===================================
The “five pounds of cherries and a live beaver” release.
Fixes:
* fd.o#22535: Gabble no longer crashes if you disconnect while it's
trying to start a Google relay session for a call. This should have
been fixed in 0.7.31, but it's really fixed now. :-) (wjt)
* Fix an occasional crash when PEP requests time out, or are cancelled
when you disconnect. (daf)
* Correct an assertion about vCard edits not to fire incorrectly. (daf)
* Clarify some correct-but-confusing behaviour in libjingle 0.3 mode,
which fixes a Coverity false-positive. (smcv)
telepathy-gabble 0.8.0 (2009-08-18)
===================================
The “place a chair facing the oven and sit in it forever” release. This is the
first release in the 0.8 stable series.
Dependencies:
* telepathy-glib >= 0.7.34 is now required as Gabble implements the
Location API.
Enhancements:
* Location and Debug are now implemented as stable interfaces.
* Timeouts are synchronised to the second where possible, leading to fewer
wakeups.
Fixes:
* Fix race condition introduced by fix for fd.o #22023.
* Make vCard request less likely to time out.
* Fix a bug where a vCard request failure could cause SetAvatar or SetAliases
not to return.
telepathy-glib 0.9.1 (2009-10-15)
=================================
The "to quote Rob: sdflkaytliahdskljfhgaqgh;shf" release.
Fixes:
* Corrected the GLib dependency to 2.20 (this was also needed for 0.9.0,
but that fact was undocumented) (smcv)
* Corrected the error message given when a write-only D-Bus property
is read (Pekka Pessi)
* Work around GLib 2.20 being less const-correct than 2.22 (jonny)
* fd.o #23853: if a connection manager is discovered not to be running while
TpConnectionManager has a ListProtocols call in-flight, then a new instance
of the CM starts up and replies to that call, don't crash with an assertion
failure (smcv)
* If a connection manager returns error from GetParameters(), don't dereference
a NULL pointer and segfault (smcv)
* When asked to activate or introspect a connection manager, don't do anything
until we have at least worked out whether it was initially running, in order
to provide the documented behaviour (smcv)
* When getting parameter details from a running connection manager, consider
parameters called "password" or ending with "-password" to be secret even
if they lack the SECRET flag, as was already done when reading .manager
files (smcv)
telepathy-glib 0.9.0 (2009-09-28)
=================================
The "purging all the lies" release.
Dependencies:
* GLib 2.20 is now required.
* telepathy-glib now links to GIO as well as GLib and GObject (in practice
they're packaged together, and we already depended on a new enough GLib
version that it would come with GIO).
Enhancements:
* TpAccountManager, TpAccount: add convenience API similar to libempathy's
(jonny, with contributions from wjt/danni/sjoerd/smcv)
* telepathy-glib now uses Automake 1.11's "silent rules" feature for
kernel-style output; as a result, we no longer use shave. If you were
previously using --enable-shave to get prettier output, use
--enable-silent-rules instead, and upgrade to Automake >= 1.11 if you will
be altering the build system. (jonny)
telepathy-glib 0.8.0 (2009-09-24)
=================================
The "line in the sand" release.
This release begins a bugfix-only 0.8.x branch, in which new API/ABI will no
longer be added; 0.9.x development releases will continue to be made from
the master branch.
Summary of API changes since 0.6.x:
* Since 0.7.35, it is no longer guaranteed that the self-handle in
TpBaseConnection is set to 0 when the state changes to DISCONNECTED;
instead, it remains valid until the connection is disposed. This will cause
assertion failures during disconnection in telepathy-sofiasip < 0.5.17 and
telepathy-gabble < 0.7.9.
Changes since 0.7.37:
* spec: update from 0.17.28 to 0.18.0 (no real changes) (smcv)
* ContactList example CM: fix a crash during shutdown (andrunko)
* StreamedMedia example CM: check for direction changes correctly (andrunko)
telepathy-idle 0.1.5 (2009-09-14)
=================================
Enhancements:
* Use automake 1.11's silent build option. Use --enable-silent-rules
to enable it. (wjt)
* Implement Destroyable for IM channels. (wjt)
* Implement o.fd.Tp.Connection.Interface.Requests. (jonner & wjt)
* Allow parting MUCs with RemoveMembers. (wjt)
Fixes:
* fd.o #22291: Define _GNU_SOURCE not __USE_GNU to get strnlen(3),
which was causing a build failure on openSUSE, which has a glibc
from the future. (Vincent Untz)
* fd.o #22958: Don't explicitly return void in void functions as Sun's
C compiler doesn't support this. (Elaine Xiong)

* Clarify when tp_proxy_signal_connection_disconnect is safe to call (smcv)
* Add support for simulating DTMF and Hold support in the 'callable' example
connection manager (andrunko)

Update:
chat/finch to 2.6.1
chat/libpurple to 2.6.1
chat/pidgin to 2.6.1
chat/pidgin-sametime to 2.6.1
chat/pidgin-silc to 2.6.1
major changes:
o addition of farsight support for voice/video chats (untested, new option on by default)
o addition of dependency on devel/libidn
o addition of gstreamer option for libpurple (on by default)
What changed:
- Implemented component clustering
- Many virtual hosts in one SM process
- FreeBSD kqueue support
- Implemented PBX integration interface
- crypt() password support for LDAP backend
There is new <local/> section in sm.xml. You may use it to configure
domains serviced by the SM process. Old style domain name in <id/>
section still works for backward compatibility, but the <local/>
section overrides it. You need to give different <id/> names to
SM instances participating in clustering. Router needs a way to
differenciate these.
There is new <pbx/> section in c2s.xml configuration file. Please
see it if you want to use the PBX integration.
Packaging changes:
added PKG_OPTIONS_GROUP.mio to control the choice of I/O modules.
Defaulting to mio-select and mio-poll, which are known to work with
NetBSD > 4.0.
telepathy-farsight 0.0.9 (03 Aug 2009)
======================================
- Emit session-invalidated on channel dispose (prevents leak)
- Fix ICE priority mangling (so not all candidates get 0)
- Use new error numbers from the the 0.17.27 spec
