Bug#599564: release.debian.org: Please unblock dovecot 1:1.2.15-1



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal


I just uploaded this package to unstable.  Here is the changelog: 

  * New upstream release (Closes: #587036,#597529)
  * Updated policy version to 3.9.1.0 (no changes needed)
  * [SECURITY] Fixes two bugs with acls which could have allowed a user to
    gain improper access or admin rights to shared mailboxes.
    (Closes: #599521)
  * Warn that the generated SSL certificate will expire in 365 days.  Thanks
    Phillip Weis.  (Closes: #576455)
  * Wherever the path to sendmail is given as /usr/lib/sendmail, change to
    /usr/sbin/sendmail.  (Closes: #570814,#595671)

The main point of the upload was that the new upstream version 1.2.15 
fixes a potential security problem with ACLs  as described in #599521.

Some other trivial changes were also made.  An extra line of output was 
added to  debian/dovecot-common.postint in response to #576455.  Any 
instances of /usr/lib/sendmail were changed to /usr/sbin/sendmail (See 
debian/patches/sendmail-path.patch in the source.)  Hopefully this won't 
be a problem for you.
