1 debbugs (2.4.2) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
4 - Add "package" command to service (control@) to limit the bugs that
5 the following commands apply to.
8 - Add (slightly) fancy CGI decoding of message/* MIME types.
9 - CGI scripts now support multiple maintainers for a single package.
10 - Add support for an X-Debbugs-No-Ack: mail header to suppress
12 - Document how to deliver mail to debbugs via procmail and SpamAssassin.
13 - Implement new .status format that's extensible and easier to read; it
14 now lives in .summary rather than .status. Use debbugs-upgradestatus
15 to convert existing bug databases.
16 - Implement bug ownership, with new 'owner' and 'noowner' commands
18 - Install Debian configuration in the binary package's examples
19 directory (closes: #222118).
22 - Rewrite filtering in cgi's common.pl, to make it completely generic.
23 Filtering can now work against any field.
24 - Rewrite grouping logic in cgi's common.pl, to make it completely
25 generic. There is now no longer 2 nested loops, to do the grouping.
26 This makes adding new grouping levels simpler for the future.
27 - Add in a Table of Contents to pkgreport.cgi.
28 - Display how long until a resolved bug will be archived in
30 - Add user-agent detection. This currently doesn't change anything,
32 - Add options show_list_(head|foot)er.

36 debbugs (2.4.1) unstable; urgency=low
39 - Exit the CGI scripts straight away if the HTTP method is HEAD, to save
41 - Display pending+fixed bugs as "fixed in NMU", not "pending upload".
42 - Add a man page for debbugsconfig.
43 - Report original tags when changing them, closes: #170630.
44 - Add missing <ul></ul> tags to db2html's output, closes: #50746.
45 - Add a 'submitter' command to service, based on a patch by Matt Kraai.

47 notices that were there due to using it.
48 - Accept ';' as well as '&' as a CGI argument separator.
49 - db2html now works with the new hashed database layout.
50 - Disable the fixed severity in favour of the tag.
51 - MIME-encoded messages to bugs are displayed in decoded form on the web

56 - Clean up the definition and use of $gCGIDomain, closes: #139697.
58 - Convert all code to use global read/write functions, instead of having
59 it duplicated everywhere.
60 - Trim trailing whitespace from pseudoheader values. Closes: #153590.
61 - Warn when reassigning to an unknown package. Closes: #60595.
63 - Added a terse=yes mode for bugreport.cgi, possibly useful for
64 monstrously long bugs.
65 - Purged needless date(1) forks, replaced with strftime.

69 debbugs (2.4) experimental; urgency=low
71 * Updating the package with what's in CVS, even though this might
72 completely break things for people who've been using the previous also
73 broken package. <shrug> :) Upped the minor version since the changes
74 are noticeable, and uploaded to experimental, just in case.
75 * Applied speedup patch, that uses references, instead of copies.
76 Thanks to Thomas Smith. Closes: #87176. [Adam]
77 * Reverted some parts of the speedup patch because it breaks the API.
79 * Bugs that are tagged fixed are now listed in a separate section in the
80 web pages. Patch from Colin Watson. Closes: #86922. [Adam]
81 * Added support for an additional Maintainers.override file, which is read
82 after the normal one. This allows the normal one to be externally
83 updated, but still have local overrides. [Adam]
84 * Put <title> and </title> on the same line as the title since some lame
85 browsers don't seem to like it otherwise. [Josip]
86 * Include a mailto: URI in the header for a bug report. [Adam]
87 * Added support for filtering on subject with include=subj:foo (exact
88 match, case sensitive). [Anthony]
89 * Added a missing http://, thanks to Julian Gilbey. [Anthony]
90 * Use by-*.idx indices to speed up pkgreport.cgi. [Anthony]
91 * Support "maint=" in pkgreport to give packages without a maintainer.
93 * Updated Postfix documentation. [Darren]
94 * Use two variables in order to reduce the amount of path hard-coding.
95 * Added support for storing the files in a hashed directory (db-h), with
96 the same hash layout as archive/. [Adam]
97 * Added support for tracing of bug state changes. This date is in
98 $gSpoolDir/debbugs.trace. It is locked (as debbugs.trace.lock) while
99 accessed, and appended to. Currently, nothing uses this trace file and
100 it isn't even cleaned up, which can be easily fixed with a simple cron
102 * Tell sendmail to queue outgoing mail for later delivery, instead of
103 immediate delivery. [Adam]
104 * Added a keywords header to outgoing email responses. [Adam]
105 * Use Resent-From: if From: doesn't exist. [Adam]
106 * Added appropriate Reply-To: lines for the ACK messages that could use
108 * Add $gUnknownMaintainerEmail to the list of maintainers to mail in case
109 an package with no maintainer is referenced. [Adam]
110 * processall locks 'incoming-cleaner' before starting, so we don't have
111 multiple copies of it running at the same time. [Adam]
112 * Sort bugs tagged 'pending' as 'pending upload', between 'forwarded' and
114 * Add support for searching by source package. pkgreport.cgi takes src=,
115 and both pkgreport.cgi and bugreport.cgi have enhanced HTML headers now.
117 * Add support in the CGIs for:
118 * 'raw' sorting. This does no grouping based on status or severity, and
119 just lists bugs in number order.
120 * reversing the order that bugs are displayed. This does not affect
121 severity or status ordering.
122 * inclusions/exclusions of status and severity. Also, support reverse
123 sorting of the above.
124 * Make it possible to ban people from control@bugs. [Anthony]
125 * Don't lie about missing Subject:s being an RFC822 violation, because
126 they aren't. [Anthony, Josip]
127 * Added preliminary support for ###-request. [Adam]
128 * Added preliminary fast indexing support. [Adam/Anthony (?)]
129 * Added preliminary support for CC:ing <src>@packages.qa.debian.org.
131 * Added preliminary cloning support. [Anthony]
132 * Link to submitter's web page, patch from Matt Kraai. [Josip]
133 * The autoconfig thing in the description is gone, closes: #124537.
134 * Fix viewing archived bugs by source package, closes: #121082, #146484.
136 * Depends: libmailtools-perl rather than mailtools, closes: #113028.
137 * Add MIME support to process and service, and depend on libmime-perl as a
138 result, closes: #36813. [Colin]
139 * Trim Bug#12345: from the Subject:, not "Bug#12345: [", closes: #78123.
141 * Be more careful about loop detection, closes: #113514. [Adam, Colin]
142 * Relax the syntax for 'tags' slightly, since people seem to use it that
143 way accidentally a lot, closes: #96164. [Colin]
144 * Give better feedback from pkgreport.cgi when querying a non-existent
145 package name, closes: #93433. [Colin]
146 * Remove support for -fixed address from receive, since nothing else
148 * Prevent people from reading the first line of arbitrary files through
149 bugreport.cgi, thanks to Max <rusmir@tula.net>. [Colin]
150 * Add working-for-me instructions for exim setup on non-dedicated sites,
151 together with Chad Miller's suggestions, closes: #78688. [Colin]
152 * Fix a few typos, closes: #146745, #152751.
153 * Update the copyright file with the current list of maintainers and a
155 * Remove lynx-cfg, and use 'lynx -cfg=/dev/null' instead. [Colin]
156 * Various other things, not worth mentioning here.

160 debbugs (2.3-4) unstable; urgency=low
162 * Added a check for unwanted characters in the part of request passed on
163 to sendlynxdoc that gets passed to shell. [Josip]
164 * Applied Rob Browning's patches to remove more Debian-only stuff,
165 closes: #80077. [Josip]
166 * Fixed the nextnumber misplacement (it should be in spool dir, not config
167 dir), and added a note about running debbugsconfig after changes to
168 config file, thanks to Rob for the hints. [Josip]
169 * Changed Maintainer: to point to debian-debbugs. Added myself to
171 * Fixed Lintian errors: file-in-etc-not-marked-as-conffile (except
172 for lynx-cfg which is a gross hack anyway),
173 virtual-package-depends-without-real-package-depends,
174 debian-changelog-file-contains-user-emacs-settings.

180 * Fixed examples installation, debbugsconfig should actually work now,
181 closes: #77126. [Josip]
182 * Removed all traces of the package after purging, in postrm. [Josip]
183 * Added pkgindex.cgi, package/maintainer/submitter indices. [Anthony]
184 * Moved readparse to common.pl, since it's, well, common to all the cgi
185 stuff. Other fixes in common.pl. [Anthony]
186 * Moved some of the pkgreport.cgi logic from common.pl into pkgreport.cgi.
188 * Random typo fixes in the CGIs. [Anthony]
189 * Made the CGI scripts use the common.pl from their directory and not
190 /usr/lib/debbugs nor ~ajt/newajbug. That stuff should actually _work_
192 * Added bug subject and package name in closing messages. [Josip]
193 * Fixed errorlib filename (removed the .in part), this stuff should
194 actually _work_ now, argh. I shouldn't be repeating myself. [Josip]
195 * Escape +'s in URLs, closes: #75220. [Anthony]
196 * Skip checking for new installs or the config file, debbugsconfig needs
197 to regenerate the HTML, and it will detect existing conffiles. [Josip]
