seb a763c66219 Update to version 8.1.14.
Approved by maintainer.

Changes since last packaged version (8.1.11):
version 8.1.14 (Apr 9, 2006):
        - fixed rpm conserver.spec file - based on patch by Martin Evans
          <m.d.t.evans@qmul.ac.uk>
        - added 'uds' console type for unix domain socket connections -
          based on patch by DJ Gregor <dj@gregor.com>
        - probing of interfaces under cygwin (and possibly others?) now
          skips unconfigured interfaces (even if flagged as up!) -
          reported by Chris Riddoch <chrisr@digeo.com>
        - added the '!login' console option to prevent clients from
          connecting to a console - suggested by Greg Tillman
          <gregtillman@comcast.net>
        - added a 'noop' console type for consoles you'd like to name,
          but have no connection to - suggested by Greg Tillman
          <gregtillman@comcast.net>
        - deprecated escape commands removed from the code
        - added '^EcP' and '^EcR' sequences to set the playback and
          replay line lengths
        - new console config options 'playback' and 'replay' to let the
          client set prefered output lengths (with a special feature for
          a size of zero)
        - prefer strlcpy() over strcpy() - based on patch by Peter
          Valchev <pvalchev@openbsd.org>
        - fixed bug where '^Eco' by user on an 'exec' console with an
          'initcmd' causes input by user to be ignored (could be other
          console types as well) - reported by Mark Wedel
          <Mark.Wedel@sun.com>
        - made POSIX termios code in autologin a requirement (since
          conserver requires it) and cleaned up a few other issues -
          based on reports by Arthur Clune <ajc22@york.ac.uk>

version 8.1.13 (Jan 15, 2006):
        - use SIOCGIFNUM for interface count (if available) and catch
          EINVAL on Solaris - patch by Peter Jeremy
          <peter.jeremy@alcatel.com.au>
        - console output now resets idle timer - suggested by Peter
          Saunders <pajs@fodder.org.uk>
        - bug fix for conserver process running out of control and using
          up cpu - debugged with Alexandra N. Kossovsky
          <Alexandra.Kossovsky@oktetlabs.ru>

version 8.1.12 (Sep 5, 2005):
        - printf() fix for autologin - patch by Menno Duursma
          <druiloor@zonnet.nl>
        - newly spawned (from SIGHUP) processes didn't properly close
          primary socket
        - SSL certificates now work again (anonymous ciphers are not
          allowed if a certificate is used)
        - client options -x, -u, -w, and -i can now take a console name
          to restrict output - suggested by Evan McClure
          <emcclure@internap.com>
        - convert program now installed in $libdir/conserver - patch by
          Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@hungry.com>
        - we now ignore SIGXFSZ, if it exists
        - added 'limited' access option to remove certain functionality
          from users - suggested by Sven Michels <sven@darkman.de>
        - added client option -z/-Z for sending commands to servers
          (reload, quit, etc) - based on suggestion by Joshua Pincus
          <Joshua.Pincus@Sun.COM>
        - added 'execrunas' and 'initrunas' console options to allow
          'exec' and 'initcmd' execution as another user and/or group -
          based on patch by Gary Mills <mills@cc.umanitoba.ca>
        - the east coast mirror had to shut down (for now, at least)
        - crash from bad pointer manipulation during log replay - reported by
          Ryan Kirkpatrick <linux@rkirkpat.net>

NB: The console command from versions of conserver prior to 8 does not
interoperate with conserver version 8.
The config file formats have changed from version 7.x.x of
conserver.
For instruction on how to convert your configurtion files from conserver
version 7.x.x see ${PREFIX}/share/doc/conserver/INSTALL.
The "convert" program was installed as ${PREFIX}/lib/conserver/convert.
Briefly:
mv ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/conserver.cf ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/conserver.cf-7
mv ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/conserver.passwd ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/conserver.passwd-7
${PREFIX}/lib/conserver/convert ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/conserver.cf-7 >\
${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/conserver.cf
awk -F: '{print $1 ":" $2}' < ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/conserver.passwd-7 > \
${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/conserver.passwd
