1 2008-09-20 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
3 * Queue.README (Version): Update the text to match reality with
4 DEFERRED/DELAYED and the removed mv command
6 2008-09-20 Thomas Viehmann <tv@beamnet.de>
8 * debianqueued: Minor fixes on .commands processing.
10 2008-09-15 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
12 * config: Use 15 delayed dirs. Also change maintainer_mail to
13 ftpmaster. And remove lotsa ancient cvs history foo
15 2008-09-11 Thomas Viehmann <tv@beamnet.de>
17 * debianqueued: Add DELAYED-support.
19 2008-06-15 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
21 * debianqueued: Fix a brown-paper-bag bug (we just dont know who
22 to assign the bag too). strftime %b is better than %B for
25 2008-06-14 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
27 * debianqueued (process_commands): Add a little note that one
28 should use dcut for .commands files
30 2008-05-10 Stephen Gran <sgran@debian.org>
31 * debianqueued: First pass at a send_mail implementation that
32 sucks less. This also gives us X-Debian-Package
34 2008-05-08 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
36 * debianqueued: added header X-Debian: DAK
38 -- Version 0.9 released
40 1999-07-07 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
42 * debianqueued: Implemented new upload methods "copy" and "ftp" as
43 alternatives to "ssh". "copy" simply copies files to another
44 directory on the queue host, "ftp" uses FTP to upload files. Both
45 of course need no ssh-agent.
47 $upload_method, $ftptimeout, $ftpdebug, $ls, $cp, $chmod,
50 $masterlogin -> $targetlogin
51 $masterdir -> $targetdir
52 $chmod_on_master -> $chmod_on_target
54 Note that the FTP method has some limitations: If no SITE MD5SUM
55 command is supported by the server, uploaded files can be verified
56 by their size only. And if removing of files in the target dir
57 isn't allowed, upload errors can't be handled gracefully.
59 * debianqueued: .changes files can now also be signed by GnuPG.
61 * dqueued-watcher: Also updates debian-keyring.gpg.
63 Tue Dec 8 14:09:44 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
65 * debianqueued (process_changes): After an upload, do not remove
66 files with the same name stem if a .changes file is among them.
67 Then there is probably a second upload for a different
70 -- Version 0.8 released
72 Thu May 14 16:17:48 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
74 * debianqueued (process_changes): When --after a successfull
75 upload-- deleting files that seem to belong to the same job, check
76 for equal revision number on files that have one. It has happened
77 that the daemon deleted files that belonged to another job with
78 different revision, which shouldn't happen. The current algorithm
79 is more conservative, i.e. it tends not to delete such files. They
80 will be removed as stray files anyway after some time.
82 Tue Apr 21 10:29:01 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
84 * debianqueued (check_incoming_writable): Also recognize
85 "read-only filesystem" as an error message that makes the daemon
86 think the incoming is unwritable.
88 * debianqueued (check_dir): Break from the .changes loop if
89 $incoming_writable has become cleared.
91 * debianqueued (process_changes): Don't increment failure count if
92 upload failed due to incoming dir being unwritable.
94 * debianqueued (check_dir): Don't use return value of
95 debian_file_stem as regexp, it's a shell pattern.
97 Tue Mar 31 11:06:11 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
99 * debianqueued (process_changes, process_commands): Check for
100 improper mail addresses from Maintainer: fields and try to handle
101 them by looking up the string in the Debian keyring. New funtion
102 try_to_get_mail_addr for the latter.
104 * debianqueued (fatal_signal): Kill status daemon only if it has
107 * debianqueued (copy_to_master): Change mode of files uploaded to
108 master explicitly to 644. scp uses the permission from the
109 original files, and those could be restricted due to local upload
112 Mon Mar 30 13:24:51 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
114 * dqueued-watcher (main): If called with arguments, only make
115 summaries for the log files given. With this, you can view the
116 summaries also between normal watcher runs.
118 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): New arg $to_stdout, to print
119 report directly to stdout instead of sending via mail.
121 Tue Mar 24 14:18:18 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
123 * debianqueued (check_incoming_writable): New function that checks
124 if the incoming dir on master is writable (it isn't during a
125 freeze is done). The check is triggered if an upload fails due to
126 "permission denied" errors. Until the incoming is writable again,
127 the queue is holded and no uploads are tried (so that the max.
128 number of tries isn't exceeded.)
130 -- Version 0.7 released
132 Mon Mar 23 13:23:20 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
134 * debianqueued (process_changes): In an upload failure message,
135 say explicitly that the job will be retried, to avoid confusion of
138 * debianqueued (process_changes): $failure_file was put on
139 @keep_list only for first retry.
141 * debianqueued (process_changes): If the daemon removes a
142 .changes, set SGID bit on all files associated with it, so that
143 the test for Debian files without a .changes doesn't find them.
145 * debianqueued (check_dir): Don't send reports for files without a
146 .changes if the files look like a recompilation for another
147 architecture. Then the maintainer extracted from the files isn't
148 the uploader. A job is treated like that if it doesn't include a
149 .dsc file and no *_{i386,all}.deb files.
151 * debianqueued (check_dir): Also don't send such a report if the
152 list of files with the same stem contains a .changes. This can be
153 the case if an upload failed and the .changes is still around, and
154 there's some file with the same name stem but which isn't in the
155 .changes (e.g. .orig.tar.gz).
157 * debianqueued (process_changes): Set @keep_list earlier, before
158 PGP and non-US checks.
160 * debianqueued (main): Fix recognition of -k argument.
162 Tue Feb 17 11:54:33 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
164 * debianqueued (check_dir): Added test for binaries that could
165 reside on slow NFS filesystems. It is specially annoying if pgp
166 isn't found, because then the .changes is deleted. If one of the
167 files listed in @conf::test_binaries isn't present immediately
168 before a queue run, that one is delayed.
170 -- Version 0.6 released
172 Tue Dec 9 14:53:23 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
174 * debianqueued (process_changes): Reject jobs whose package name
175 is in @nonus_packages (new config var). These must be uploaded to
176 nonus.debian.org instead of master itself.
178 Tue Nov 25 11:02:38 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
180 * debianqueued (main): Implemented -k and -r arguments (kill or
181 restart daemon, resp.)
183 * debianqueued (is_debian_file): Exclude orig.tar.gz files from
184 that class, so that the maintainer address isn't searched in them
185 if they happen to come first in the dir.
187 * debianqueued (END): Fix kill call (pid and signo were swapped)
189 * debianqueued (process_changes): Moved check if job is already on
190 master to a later stage, to avoid connecting to master as long as
191 there are still errors with the job (missing files or the like).
193 * debianqueued (check_alive): Lookup master's IP address before
194 every ping, it could change while the daemon is running...
196 -- Version 0.5 released
198 Mon Nov 11 14:37:52 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
200 * debianqueued (process_commands): rm command now can process more
201 than one argument and knows about wildcards
203 Mon Nov 6 15:09:53 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
205 * debianqueued (process_commands): Recognize commands on the same
206 line as the Commands: keyword, not only on continuation lines.
208 Mon Nov 3 16:49:57 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
210 * debianqueued (close_log): After reopening the log file, write
211 one message it. This avoids that dqueued-watcher's rotating
212 algorithm delays from several minutes to a few hours on every
213 rotate, since it looks at the time of the first entry.
215 Thu Oct 30 13:56:35 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
217 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): Added some new summary counters
220 * debianqueued (process_changes): Added check for files that seem
221 to belong to an upload (match debian_file_stem($changes)), but
222 aren't listed in the .changes. Most probably these are unneeded
223 .orig.tar.gz files. They are deleted.
225 * debianqueued (print_status): Print revision and version number
226 of debianqueued in status file.
228 * debianqueued (process_commands): New function, for processing
229 the new feature of .command files. These enable uploaders to
230 correct mistakes in the queue dir (corrupted/misnamed files)
232 Wed Oct 29 15:35:03 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
234 *debianqueued (check_dir): Extra check for files that look like an
235 upload, but miss a .changes file. A problem report is sent to the
236 probable uploader after $no_changes_timeout seconds (new config
237 var). The maintainer email can be extracted from .dsc, .deb,
238 .diff.gz and .tar.gz files (though the maintainer needs not
239 necessarily be the uploader...) New utility functions
240 is_debian_file, get_maintainer, debian_file_stem.
242 * debianqueued (pgp_check, get_maintainer): Quote filenames used
243 on sh command lines, so metacharacters in the names can't do bad
244 things. (Though wu-ftpd generally shouldn't allow uploading files
247 * debianqueued (print_time): Print times always as
248 hour:minute:second, i.e. don't omit the hour if it's 0. This could
249 confuse users, because they don't know if the hour or the seconds
252 -- Version 0.4 released
254 Thu Sep 25 13:18:57 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
256 * debianqueued (process_changes): Forgot to remove a bad .changes
257 file in some cases (no mail address, not PGP signed at all, no
258 files mentioned). Also initialize some variables to avoid Perl
261 Wed Sep 17 14:15:21 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
263 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): Add feature of writing summaries
264 also to a file. Config var do_summary renamed to mail_summary,
265 additional var summary_file.
267 Mon Sep 15 11:56:59 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
269 * dqueued-watcher: Log several activities of the watcher to the log
270 file; new function logger() for this.
272 * debianqueued (process_changes, check_alive): Make some things more
273 verbose in non-debug mode.
275 Mon Aug 18 13:25:04 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
277 * dqueued-watcher (rotate_log): Using the log file's ctime for
278 calculating its age was a rather bad idea -- starting the daemon
279 updates that time stamp. Now the first date found in the log file
280 is used as basis for age calculation.
282 * dqeued-watcher (make_summary): New function to build a summary
283 of daemon actions when rotating logs. Controlled by config
284 variable $do_summary.
286 Tue Aug 12 13:26:52 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
288 * Makefile: new files with targets for automating various
291 -- Version 0.3 released
293 Mon Aug 11 10:48:31 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
295 * debianqueued (is_on_master, copy_to_master): Oops, forget
296 alarm(0)'s to turn off timeouts again.
298 * debianqueued: Revised the startup scheme so that it also works
299 with the socket-based ssh-agent. That agent periodically checks
300 whether the process it started is still alive and otherwise exits.
301 For that, the go-into-background fork must be done before
302 ssh-agent is started.
304 * debianqueued: Implemented close_log and SIGHUP handling for
307 * dqueued-watcher: Implemented log file rotating.
309 Thu Aug 07 11:25:22 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
311 * debianqueued (is_on_master, copy_to_master): added timeouts to
312 all ssh/scp operations, because I've seen one once hanging...
