New Debian powerpc Packages



These powerpc packages were installed into the Debian hierarchy in the
last week:

----- !!! HIGH URGENCY PACKAGES !!! -----

file-rc    - Alternative one-configfile boot mechanism
file-rc 0.4.2 -> 0.4.3 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/admin
file-rc 0.4.2 -> 0.4.3 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/admin
file-rc (0.4.3) unstable frozen; urgency=high, closes=19507 19310 17882 20963
  * Complete rewrite of the commandline parser for update-rc.d.  It now
    handles different runlevels correctly and works similar to the program
    as provided by sysvinit.
  * Included support for runlevel S (closes: Bug#19507)
  * Wrote and included rcS
  * Moved /etc/init.d/reboot and /etc/init.d/halt from sequence 05 to 99
  * Use dpkg-divert for /etc/init.d/rcS
  * Complete rewrite of debian/rules as it's now clear that I'm not only
    an interim maintainer. (closes: Bug#19310)
  * Applied patch from Wakko Warner <wakko@ani.animx.ml.org> to support
    .sh files. (closes: Bug#17882)
  * Used new source ftp address in copyright
  * Rewrote rclink2file.sh to support different start sequences
  * Hacked support for runlevel S into rcfile2link.sh
  * Removed /tmp files in favour of /etc tempfiles
  * Added support for runlevel S in rclink2file.sh
  * Added support for .sh files not marked executable
  * Modified /etc/init.d/rc to call all kill scripts first and then run
    the start scripts, when they're not called in the previous level -
    just like sysvinit.  (closes: Bug#20963)
  * New description
  * Added module to correct missing runlevel S support and wrong handling
    for reboot and halt to postinst
  * New Standards-Version
  * Heavy tested the code on a plain hamm machine as well as on a manual
    crippled machine.  Yes, it works.  Great.

  * NEW IN OPENFW:
  * Added an option to force closing a specified host, and to open/close
    a specified group of hosts, specifying just one of the hosts.
  * Added the option to list the firewall entries.
  .
  * NEW IN OPENHOST:
  * Better and (hopefully) more descriptive error messages.
  * Tell the user if the daemon (or other script etc) have closed the
    firewall for him/her, and exit cleanly.
  .
  * NEW IN TCPQUOTAD:
  * Added support for more than one local network.
  * Make _ABSOLUTELY_ sure that we find the correct user, checking against
    our local domains.
  * New signal handlers, USR[12] which turn on resp turn off debugging.
  * Try to send a SMB message if we have to close the firewall to the
    user in question.
  * Fixed the bug that sometimes killed the daemon after killing a
    non-allowed users processes.
  .
  * NEW IN TCPQUOTA.PL:
  * Fixed the checking a connect against the local net (make sure it is
    _NOT_ one of our own local networks).
  * Made the libc5 and libc6 work independently, from the same code.
    (We just recently switched to libc6 on our Internet server).
  * Security fixed a open();
  * If we can not find the IP number the user is coming from from the
    UTMP file (which we often can not on a libc5 machine), try to find it
    through a DNS lookup instead.
  * Speeded up the database fetching quite a loot, by specifying the
    exact entry. Added some new params to be able to do this, since they
    where local variables.
  * Officially added support for libc6 UTMP file.
  .
  * OTHER:
  * Started hacking on a 'chkisdnlog', which give some status on the ISDN
    usage.
  * Improved the manuals a little... I do this when I have time over, but
    I'm administring 30 machines, and teaching fulltime, so... :)
  .
  * BUG FIXES:
  * Fixed some bugs in the 'openfw' script, concerning the parsing and
    execution of the corresponding code.
