Change logs for hostapd source package in Sid

  • hostapd (1:0.7.3-4) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      * add myself to uploaders.
      * add "hostap: Allow linking with libnl-3" from Ben Greear
        <email address hidden> to allow building against libnl3 3.2.
      * switch build dependency from libnl-dev (libnl1) to libnl-3-dev && 
        libnl-genl-3-dev accordingly.
      * add libpcap-dev and libbsd-dev to kFreeBSD specific build-depends.
      * disable IAPP on kFreeBSD, to avoid FTBS.
      * restrict hostapd to linux-any and kfreebsd-any, hurd lacks kernel support.
      * raise versioned build-dependency to (>= 3.2.3-2~), we need
        libnl-genl-3-200-udeb and expect it in /lib/.
      * add "For MS-CHAP, convert the password from UTF-8 to UCS-2" from
        Evan Broder <email address hidden>, accepted upstream into hostap-1.git
      * fix long description, driver_madwifi is no longer enabled, while driver_bsd
        got enabled.

  • hostapd (1:0.7.3-3) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      [ Kel Modderman ]
      * Use /run/sendsigs.omit.d/ for sendsigs omission pid file and depend on
        initscripts (>= 2.88dsf-13.3). (Closes: #633026)
      * Migrate existing sendsigs omission pid files from /lib/init/rw to /run.
      * Add a loop to ifupdown.sh to wait for creation of hostapd pid file before
        attempting creation of sensigs omission pid file, in some cases hostapd
        daemon can return before creation of the pid file has been written to disk.
      * Adjust standards version to 3.9.2, no further changes required to
        satisfy that.
      * Only test that DAEMON_CONF is set in init.d script, do not test if what is
        set is readable (which assumes only one configuration file is being used).
        (Closes: #615821)
    
      [ Stefan Lippers-Hollmann ]
      * use new anonscm URIs for alioth.

  • hostapd (1:0.7.3-2) unstable; urgency=low
      * upload to unstable -- Jan Dittberner <email address hidden>  Sun, 06 Feb 2011 13:20:42 +0100
  • hostapd (1:0.6.10-2) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      * Switch to source format 3.0 (quilt).
      * Add DTIM.patch, cherry picked from upstream, which works around
        problem setting DTIM period too early causing hostapd to bail out
        unceremoniously. (Closes: #570116)
      * Fix syntax error in ifupdown.sh. (Closes: #571029)

  • hostapd (1:0.6.10-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      * New upstream release.
        - drop all patches applied upstream
      * Install hostapd_cli to /usr/sbin/ from /usr/bin/, as it requires
        explicit permissions to be usable by non-admin.
      * Support the status command in init.d script. Depend on lsb-base (>=
        3.2-13) for status_of_proc. Patch thanks to Peter Eisentraut.
        (Closes: #535633)
      * Add debian/README.source to describe use of quilt patch system.
      * Increase Standards-Version to 3.8.4 without extra changes.
      * Reduce debian/rules by tweaking the sequence of a few things and
        using the --sourcedirectory option of dh in debhelper (>= 7.3.7~).
        Build-Depend on that debhelper version.
      * No longer install /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf per default as there are
        no sane defaults. Instead provide the configuration as an example
        only and take care to remove previously installed conffiles which
        remain unedited on upgrade.
      * Clean up init.d script a bit by using existance of hostapd daemon
        configuration file as defined in /etc/default/hostapd as conditional
        for starting instead of magic RUN_DAEMON variable.
      * Update README.Debian to contain information about the example
        hostapd.conf file.
      * Remove Reinhard Tartler from uploaders at his request. Thanks for
        past contribution.
      * Remove uupdate command from debian/watch, unused by maintainer.
      * Adjust debian/watch to scan for the 0.6.X stable releases only.

  • hostapd (1:0.6.9-3) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      * Change Maintainer to pkg-wpa-devel team and add Reinhard and myself
        to Uploaders to better reflect the organisation which makes the package
        available.
      * Import upstream patches:
        - hostap_reuse_existing_ctrl_iface_socket.patch allows to reuse ctrl
          interface sockets left over as result of unclean shutdown
        - hostap_reject_conf_without_channel_nl80211.patch adds code to reject
          configurations which use nl80211 driver without setting a channel
          because this will always fail for the time being
      * Build-Depend on quilt >= 0.46-7 for dh integration.
      * Update debian/control long description to mention mac80211 based
        drivers. Thanks to Jan Braunisch for noticing.
      * Also remove reference to the Prism54 driver in package long
        description, we do not support it.

  • hostapd (1:0.6.9-2) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      * Enable CONFIG_IEEE80211W, IEEE 802.11w (management frame
        protection). (Closes: #522328)

      [ Kel Modderman ]
      * New upstream release. (Closes: #521142)
      * Document copyright errata of hostapd/driver_atheros.c in
        debian/copyright.
        - activate nl80211 driver backend (Closes: #429734)
        - deactivate prism54 driver, it is now working. Do not mention it
          in README.Debian (Closes: #475451)
      * Add build dependency of libnl-dev (>= 1.1) for the nl80211 driver
        backend.
      * Remove need for patch system.
        - ship madwifi headers in debian/driver_madwifi
        - use sed to patch hostapd.conf in order to change /etc/hostapd.* to
          /etc/hostapd/*
        - copy in build configuration from debian/config/$(DEB_HOST_ARCH_OS)
          to hostapd/.config rather than using a patch
      * Add support for kfreebsd build by providing debian/config/kfreebsd
        without Linux specific build options.
      * Use dh-centric debian/rules and build-depend on debhelper (>= 7.0.50)
        in order to take advantage of the override_dh_* feature.
      * Bump debian/compat to 7.
      * Adjust Standards-Version to 3.8.0, no further changes needed.
      * Use machine parsable debian/copyright format.
      * Add debian/manpages instead of using explicit dh_installmanpages
        command in debian/rules.
      * Rename debian/lintian-overrides to debian/hostapd.lintian-overrides
        so that dh_lintian automatically picks it up.
      * Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.1, no other changes required.
      * Remove var/run/hostapd and usr/share/lintian/overrides from
        debian/dirs. hostapd is able to create its own directory for unix
        sockets (and that may be anywhere admin decides) and lintian stuff
        is taken care of by debhelper now.
      * Update copyright information in debian/ifupdown.sh
    
      [ Faidon Liambotis ]
      * Switch Maintainer/Uploaders roles with Kel; he's the de facto maintainer
        nowadays, he may as well listed as such.

  • hostapd (1:0.5.10-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      * New upstream release.
      * Document the two methods of managing hostapd in README.Debian. Also add a
        hint to /etc/default/hostapd to consult README.Debian for more
        information. (Closes: #443786)
      * Cleanup of debian/rules, actually honor nostrip by specifying default
        CFLAGS when invoking make. Remove redundant commented out content.
      * Fix incorrect LSB dependency information, hostapd now requires $remote_fs
        virtual facility for start and stop. Thanks to Petter Reinholdtsen.
        (Closes: #466283)
