22:19 Changeset [24226] by geofft
dotfiles: Oh hey, there's a dh_lintian that CDBS calls.
21:51 Changeset [24225] by geofft
In dotfiles: * Install Lintian overrides for non-standard-dir-in-usr and file-in-unusual-dir for /usr/prototype_user, which is a legacy pathname we need to support indefinitely.
21:30 Changeset [24224] by geofft
Can we get a pre-commit hook rejecting Ubuntu's dch silliness?
21:09 Changeset [24223] by geofft

20:45 Changeset [24222] by broder
In dotfiles: * Don't ship /var/run/athena-sessions as part of the package.
17:56 Changeset [24221] by broder
Change the owner and permissions on the attachtab, even if it already exists.
17:47 Changeset [24220] by broder
In liblocker: * Make /var/run/attachtab/.{,dir}lock owned by root at startup to prevent a potential DoS from the first user to attach a locker. * Make /var/run/attachtab/ 770 instead of 777 to prevent unprivileged users from being able to get to and potentially manipulate entries they created in the attachtab. * Don't ship the attachtab as part of the package; instead create it during installation by running the init script.

21:00 Changeset [24212] by broder
Set the maintainer to the Debathena Project when debathenifying lprng.
20:59 Changeset [24211] by broder
Add "set_debathena_maintainer" frob to the debathenificator. (Trac: #456) set_debathena_maintainer adds the current Maintainer to XSBC-Original-Maintainer (creating the latter if it doesn't already exist), and sets the Maintainer to the Debathena Project.
20:56 Changeset [24210] by broder

In gdm-config: * Don't divert /usr/share/gdm/BuiltInSessions/default.desktop in the new gdm, where it no longer exists. (Trac: #447) * Add a gconf default to disable the user list in the new gdm. (Trac: #429)
14:47 Changeset [24206] by geofft
Inspired by r24205, tweak the version check in various postinsts. The version check should take into account Debathena's ~distro version tags. Like the previous commit, this is for reference and does not necessitate a rebuild, if for no other reason than we've advanced well past the version in question.
12:10 Changeset [24205] by broder
Correct the DEB_UNDIVERT_VERSION versions in reactivate and printing-config. Without the trailing tilde, upgrading *from* the version where DEB_UNDIVERT_VERSION was set will trigger a single, harmless OMINOUS WARNING because of Debathena's ~distro version tags. These changes are just there for the sake of future reference, and do not need a package rebuild, so there's no changelog entry for either.
10:36 Changeset [24204] by broder
In printing-config: * Add missing dependency on python-cups.
02:59 Changeset [24203] by geofft
Fix a typo in r24202 that caused a FTBFS.
02:27 Changeset [24202] by geofft
In printing-config: * Stop wrapping lpc, since it's only useful with LPRng, and cancel, since it's not useful with LPRng (it's treated exactly the same as LPRng's lprm).
01:51 Changeset [24201] by geofft
In printing-config: * When doing operations against CUPS printers, act against the realserver because load balancing otherwise gets in your way. * Remove /etc/debathena-printing.conf and revert 1.4 and much of 1.7. Use the printing subsystem that the print queue lives on; attempt to convert LPRng options to CUPS ones for CUPS printers, but not vice versa. * Rephrase man pages to stop talking about Athena 10, and mention cups-lp(1)'s documentation of the -o options to lpr. * Fix a bug relating to lp using -d for its destination, not -P.

16:14 Changeset [24199] by broder
In reactivate: * Now that policy-rc.d isn't blindly allowing stops and starts for anything in the chroot, we should be sure that the chroot actually knows it's a chroot before we try to start CUPS in it.
15:51 Changeset [24198] by broder
In reactivate: * Fix the policy-rc.d to actually allow for restarting cups and cupsys inside the chroot. Apparently pipes can delineate patterns, but don't mean anything within a single pattern, such as the one one pattern that results from variable expansion.

Fix /etc/setup.d/00check to permit union chroots on the root filesystem. It's only unsafe for the chroot directory to be the root directory if we're not doing a union filesystem on top of it. Note that to make this useful, you'll need to make the overlay a separate filesystem (e.g., by mounting a tmpfs on /var/lib/schroot/union/overlay) for aufs to permit the mount.
