sendmail-8.9.2-1 uploaded to master
Gosh, its been a while... work has been painfull, as has the family life
during this busy season ;-{ Things are lookup up all 'round though and
I'm hoping that y2k issues let me breath once in a while this year ;-}
There are soem important things I'd like feedback/help on wrt this
package:
1) It simply tells the user to move /etc/mailertable (etc) to /etc/mail
as there is no way without alot of parsing of sendmail.mc/cf to tell
what exactly to move... and if that was done, still, the cluefull
user will have a script to update the databases - it needs updating.
2) Converting nullclient to smarthost - to prevent being an open relay!
3) I didn't get the rules updated to include sample
/etc/mail/access, /etc/mail/mailertable, etc. sample files included
- I have samples of most, but just forgot ;-{
4) I really think this should go in frozen, but I could also pull
the nullclient fix into 8.9.1-17 and ship that into frozen...
Opinions?
sendmail (8.9.2-1) unstable; urgency=high, closes=30292
This should go into both frozen and unstable, but I'd like a bit more
testing since 8.9.1-16 never got out the door...
* New upstream source, bug fixes and a DOS fix
-- syslog filling/DOS (#30292)
-- libdb2 (Berkeley DB 2.6.4 API change)
-- upstream inclusion of proto.m4 patches already in Debian
-- upstream fixes for FHS issue wrt /etc/mail
* Update debproto.m4 for 8.9.2
* Drop Debian support of nullclient - it turns one into an unchecked relay!
-- sendmailconfig
sendmail 8.9.1-16 never got sent - bad times ;-{, anyhow, here is what
it contained (and is rolled into 8.9.2):
sendmail (8.9.1-16) unstable; urgency=low, closes=27355 28410 28931 29420 30447
* Correct HACK(nodns) (#30447)
* Compile with new libc6 to remove versioned depends (#28931)
* add feature(orca): Dial User List
at the request of Paul Haggart <ph@bsfh.org>
* Correct README.Debian reference (#29613)
/usr/lib/sendmail.cf -> /usr/share/sendmail.cf
* Correct include library path for libdb2
* Update debproto.m4 for 8.9.1a, add proper diversion tags to
sendmailconfig
* Add MapInUnsafeDirPath to DontBlameSendmail (#27355)
so access.db may be in group writable directory
* FHS: Move FEATURE(xxx) databases from /etc/ to /etc/mail/: (#29420)
bitdomain.m4, domaintable.m4, genericstable.m4, mailertable.m4,
