Bug#793876: RFS: chrony/1.31.1-1



Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "chrony"

 * Package name    : chrony
   Version         : 1.31.1-1
   Upstream Author : Miroslav Lichvar <mlichvar@redhat.com>
 * URL             : http://chrony.tuxfamily.org
 * License         : GPL-2
   Section         : net

It builds those binary packages:

  chrony     - Versatile implementation of the Network Time Protocol

To access further information about this package, please visit the 
following URL:

  http://mentors.debian.net/package/chrony


Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

  dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/chrony/chrony_1.31.1-1.dsc


Changes since the last upload:

  * Import upstream version 1.31 and 1.31.1:
    - Please see /usr/share/doc/chrony/changelog.gz for release notes.

  * debian/chrony.conf:
    - Use the 'hwclockfile' directive. Avoid using text processing methods in
      the post install script to find out if the RTC keeps local time or UTC.
      (Closes: #778710)
  * debian/clean:
    - Add getdate.c
  * debian/control:
    - Move chrony from admin to net section.
    - Change priority from extra to optional.
    - Build depends on libcap-dev. (Closes: #768803)
    - Add ntp to the 'Replaces:' field.
    - Bump standards-version to 3.9.6 (no changes required).
    - Set myself as maintainer and Joachim as uploader.
    - Update Vcs-Browser URL to use cgit and https.
    - Build depends on pps-tools. Provides PPSAPI (RFC-2783) support.
    - Improve the synopsis.
    - Add Breaks on util-linux (<< 2.20.1-5). Ensure that the 'UTC=' setting
      from the '/etc/default/rcS' file have been migrated to UTC/LOCAL in
      '/etc/adjtime'.
    - Depends on adduser. Needed to create "_chrony" system user/group.
  * debian/copyright:
    - Add myself to copyright holders.
    - Remove spaces from short name license (fix Lintian warning)
    - Filled short license field (RSA-MD)   (fix Lintian warning)
  * debian/logrotate:
    - Simplify postrotate script. Thanks to Frédéric Brière
      <fbriere@fbriere.net> for reporting and diagnosing the issue.
      (Closes: #763542)
  * debian/patches:
    - Drop patches for issues fixed upstream.
    - Rename and update patch. Update the series file accordingly.
  * debian/postinst:
    - Pass the '--three-way' option to ucf.
    - Remove useless text processing methods as we now use the 'hwclockfile'
      directive. (Closes: #778711)
    - Create "_chrony" system user/group.
    - Update the "new_file" path in the ucf invocation.
    - Remove the MAILPASSWORD shell variable as we don’t use it.
  * debian/postrm:
    - Drop removal instruction of /etc/cron.weekly/chrony.
    - Remove "_chrony" system user/group on purge.
    - Don’t pass the --group option to deluser.
  * debian/rules:
    - Build with all hardening flags.
    - Ease the reading of configure options.
    - Specify "_chrony" as default chronyd user. This is the system user
      to which chronyd will drop root privileges. You'll find further information
      in /usr/share/doc/chrony/README.Debian.
      (Closes: #688971)

Cheers,
Vincent
