    a security audit as it's first priority, but explains the difficulties
    of one.

libpng2 1.0.0-0.1.1 -> 1.0.1-0.2 into dists/slink/main/binary-alpha/libs
libpng (1.0.1-0.2) unstable; urgency=medium
  * debian/rules (binary-arch): don't call install with -s as an
    argument when installing a shared library; it doesn't know to use
    --strip-unneeded, and we call strip separately later anyway.
  * scripts/makefile.lnx (CFLAGS): killed i386-isms.
  * scripts/makefile.lnx: compiled shared libraries with -D_REENTRANT.
    (The above fixes are from James Troup, who yet again, alerted me to
     my screwups ;)
  * debian/postinst: only call ldconfig if $1 = configure.


lpr        - BSD lpr/lpd line printer spooling system

----- Low Urgency Packages --------------

acct       - The GNU Accounting utilities.
acct 6.3.5-1 -> 6.3.5-3 into dists/slink/main/binary-alpha/admin
acct (6.3.5-3) unstable; urgency=low, closes=23480
  * Corrected typos in console messages in /etc/init.d/acct (fixes #23480)


alien      - Install Red Hat and Slackware Packages with dpkg.
alien 6.02hamm1 -> 6.03hamm2 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/admin
alien (6.03hamm2) frozen; urgency=low
  * Fixed a security hole in alien generated rpm files that had scripts in
    them, that could allow a user to clobber files on the filesystem. Any
    such alien generated rpm files currently in existence already contain
    this bug, so be careful with them. Such files should be rare, they have
    to be generated by "alien --to-rpm --scripts", however to prevent the
    generation of any more, it's important that this version of alien makes
    its way into debian 2.0.
  * Also, fixed --scripts, --single, and --description, all three of which
    have been broken since alien 6.0.
  * It used to be that only shell scripts could be converted to rpm format,
    because of a stupid bug. Fixed.


alien      - Install Red Hat, Stampede, and Slackware Packages with dpkg.
alien 6.08 -> 6.09 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/admin
alien (6.09) unstable; urgency=low
  * Added a short document on how to generate a diff file for use by alien.
  * Fixed a security hole in alien generated rpm files that had scripts in
    them, that could allow a user to clobber files on the filesystem. Any
    such alien generated rpm files currently in existence already contain
    this bug, so be careful with them. Such files should be rare, they have
    to be generated by "alien --to-rpm --scripts".
  * That bug is even less likely, becuase it turns out --scripts has been
    broken since alien version 6.0. Oops. Fixed.
  * --single and --description were also broken since 6.0, and are fixed
    now.
  * It used to be that only shell scripts could be converted to rpm format,
    because of a stupid bug. Fixed.
  * There has been a change in how rpm outputs the file list for a
    relocatable package - it used to strip the prefix from each filename,
    and I could get at it in the DEFAULTPREFIX tag. Now it doesn't, and that
    tag doesn't exist. The only change I actually had to make was to make
    alien send rpm's error about DEFAULTPREFIX not being a valid tag to
    /dev/null. All the code for dealing with DEFAULTPREFIX has been left in,
    for backwards compatability.


alien      - Install Red Hat, Stampede, and Slackware Packages with dpkg.
alien 6.09 -> 6.10 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/admin
alien (6.10) unstable; urgency=low
  * Remove a junk file that crept in in the last version.


alien      - Install Red Hat, Stampede, and Slackware Packages with dpkg.
alien 6.10 -> 6.11 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/admin
alien (6.11) unstable; urgency=low
  * There was a problem converting rpm packages to tgz and slp formats (and
    to a much lesser degree converting them to dpkg format): any parent
    directories that were not in the rpm, but did have children in the rpm,
    would end up with bad permissions (700). Alien now does a smart scan to
    detect this and changes the permissions to a more sane 755.
  * When converting to slp or tgz, with -g or -s, output informative
    message, same as when converting to rpm or deb.


analog     - Analyzes logfiles from www servers
analog 2.90beta1-1 -> 2.91beta1-1 into dists/slink/main/binary-alpha/web
analog (2.91beta1-1) unstable; urgency=low
  * New upstream release.


analog     - Analyzes logfiles from www servers
analog 2.91beta1-1 -> 3.0-1 into dists/slink/main/binary-alpha/web
analog (3.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
  * New upstream release.
    - analog cgi script is working now, however, I have not enabled it,
      becuase I fear it can be a security hole if the "lo" directive is used.
      Talking to the author about that now..


apache     - Versatile, high-performance HTTP server
apache 1.3b6-3.1 -> 1.3.0-2 into dists/hamm/main/binary-alpha/web
apache 1.3b6-3.1 -> 1.3.0-2 into dists/slink/main/binary-alpha/web
apache (1.3.0-2) frozen unstable; urgency=low, closes=23221 23277 22066 22609 16623 22174 22771 22858 23109 23361
  * The apxs program has the correct perl path (#23221, important).
  * Conflicts with php (>= 3.0rc4-2) (#23277, important).
  * The config program asks about mod_proxy again, since it now works.
  * CustomLog nicknames finally work inside VirtualHost containers
    thanks to patch from Christof Damian (#22066) and the Apache Group.
  * Added patch to apxs from Gergely Madarasz so PHP can build (23361).
  * This fixes all (2) release-critical bugs, 8 packaging bugs, an
    upstream bug in mod_log_config and a buffer overflow in the ftp proxy.
    It also works with PHP 3.0 without needing a -HUP ever 30 minutes.    :-)

  * New upstream release.
  * Made console-tools-data conflict with kbd which contains many
    identical data files.
  * Made gencontrol use -isp.
  * Added dependency from kbd-compat to console-tools-libs to make
    lintian happy.
  * Updated init.d script and kbdconfig from kbd_0.96a-2.
  * `showfont', previously distributed as `shfont' to prevent
    name-conflict, was renamed upstream as showcfont.
  * Renamed showfont.1 to showcfont.1 (bug in upstream package).
  * console-tools-data now depends on console-tools of the at least
    same version, as file hierarchy changed, and will probably change
    again.
  * console-tools-data now conflicts with old versions of kbd only, as
    well as with kbd-data.
  * Fixed kbdconfig wrt testing and immediately loading a keymap
    (fixed do_preserving_keymap()).
  * New undocumented program: charset.

    Bug#21973).
  * Applied patch from upstream (that's me ;) to consolechars.c to fix
    occasional problem with interrupted read() when loading a font.
  * Passed lintian 0.4.8.


debhelper  - helper programs for debian/rules
debhelper 0.90 -> 0.91 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
debhelper (0.91) unstable; urgency=low
  * dh_installdocs: support debian/<package>.{README.Debian,TODO}


debhelper  - helper programs for debian/rules
debhelper 0.91 -> 0.92 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
debhelper (0.92) unstable; urgency=low
  * dh_gencontrol: pass -isp to dpkg-gencontrol to make it include section
    and priority info in the .deb file. Back in Jan 1998, this came up, and
    a consensus was reached on debian-devel that it was a good thing for
    -isp to be used.


debhelper  - helper programs for debian/rules
debhelper 0.92 -> 0.93 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
debhelper (0.93) unstable; urgency=low
  * Depend on file, since several dh_*'s use it.

debian-policy 2.4.1.1 -> 2.4.1.2 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/doc
debian-policy (2.4.1.2) frozen unstable; urgency=low
  * non-maintainer release
  * rebuild package to fix truncated Chapter 3 (Bug#23408, not marked as
    important but should be, since a gaping hole in policy is very
    annoying.)
  * bumped version of policy, within the document, to this version number,
    but not the date, indicating nothing really changed since then
  * no content changes
  * debian/rules: clean is a little cleaner


developers-reference - Debian Developer's Reference
developers-reference 2.4.1.1 -> 2.4.1.2 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/doc
developers-reference 2.4.1.1 -> 2.4.1.2 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/doc
developers-reference (2.4.1.2) frozen unstable; urgency=low
  * non-maintainer release
  * rebuilt since HTML versions of Chapters 1 and 2 were truncated
    (important bug, no number yet, bugs.debian.org isn't working;
    regardless, this should go in hamm because a broken developers
    reference won't win us many friends in hamm, and after all, it's just
    text, it can't hurt you.)
  * no content changes, except that the version number in the SGML file
    reflect this packages version number
  * debian/rule: clean is cleaner now


dh-make    - Debianizing Tool for debhelper
dh-make 0.2 -> 0.5 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel

dpkg-repack - puts an unpacked .deb file back together
dpkg-repack 0.18 -> 0.19 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/admin
dpkg-repack (0.19) unstable; urgency=low
  * Version 0.16 broke repacking packages that had diverted files in them,
    because of how dpkg -L shows that info. (#23339). It turns out that
    older versions of dpkg-repack packed up not the original file, but the
    file that was diverted to replace it. I've decided that is incorrect
    behavior, and changed it so if there is a diversion, the original file is
    placed in the repacked package.

  * [gcc/collect2.c] There's still a vulnerability here; I don't see how
    I can fix it without leaving behind tempfiles though.
  * [debian/control] Tightened dependency on binutils to 2.8.1.0.23 or
    newer, as according to INSTALL/SPECIFIC PowerPC (and possibly Sparc)
    need this.
  * [debian/rules] Clean up some generated files outside builddir, so the

libpaper (1.0.3-10) unstable frozen; urgency=low
  * Now libpaper does not depend anymore on libpaperg (this was
    the release critical bug#22942). In previous versions, the
    dependency was added so that the executables /usr/bin/paperconf and
    /usr/sbin/paperconfig (that were present only in libpaperg), could
    be used also from the old (i.e., bo) packages that depends on libpaper
    (in bo, libpaper provided both the libraries and the executables,
    so both of them should be provided to a package that depends on libpaper).
    Now, the executables are present in both packages, and libpaperg
    uses dpkg-divert to "move away" the libpaper binaries when
    libpaperg is installed (closes: Bug#22942)
  * Removed "sparc" in debian/rules from the libraries that require
    libc5 support (closes: Bug#22082)
