  • 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)
