17:40 Changeset [24710] by broder
In kerberos-config: * Only reload apparmor in the postinst, not the postrm, and only if it was previously running. (Trac: #506)
17:29 Changeset [24709] by broder
In apparmor-config: * Run debhelper- and config-package-dev-generated postinst/postrm code before reloading apparmor, so the diversions are actually in place when we do.
13:08 Changeset [24708] by broder
In nmh-config, don't have a versioned dependency on a virtual package. Instead, depend on a bare debathena-nmh, and conflict with debathena-nmh (<= our old forked version)
12:42 Changeset [24707] by broder
In nmh-config: * Make sure nmh-config depends on the Debathenified upstream nmh, not the old Athena fork.

18:26 Changeset [24702] by gdb

In nmh-config: * Actually install said relevant MH-E configuration.
04:10 Changeset [24700] by geofft
In nmh-config: * Depend on the Debathenified version of nmh, which has the mbx_close patch for not losing your mail if you run out of quota. This dependency should be adjusted if the patch gets incorporated upstream.
03:53 Changeset [24699] by geofft
Send our decades-old nmh snapshot to the attic (Trac: #419).
03:46 Changeset [24698] by geofft
Debathenify upstream nmh to restore r14162 (Trac: #74).
02:54 Changeset [24697] by geofft
In nmh-config: * csh programming considered harmful.
02:49 Changeset [24696] by geofft
In emacs-config: * Because 1.5 got rid of the customizations needed to make MH-E work with the old debathena-nmh package, Conflict with that package so as to force either upgrading to debathena-nmh-config (which is what we Suggest) or punting it entirely.

06/10/10:

23:19 Changeset [24695] by geofft
Replace debathena-nmh with a hard dependency on debathena-nmh-config. debathena-nmh-config is configuration for the upstream nmh package, which is a better solution than keeping the 10-year-old snapshot from debathena-nmh around. Among other things, the upstream package does krb5. This effectively reverts r24091.

08:12 Changeset [24689] by broder
In the debathenificator, use a separate variable for "DEBATHENA_RELEASE" (as understood by sbuildhack and chroot-sources) and "apt_release" (the suffix you add to Debian/Ubuntu release names) Since DEBATHENA_RELEASE can't be "", we need a separate variable that can be, since hardyproduction is not actually a valid suite in the apt repo.

debathenify-openafs uses bashisms, so fix the shebang. This change has been in use in production use since Debian finally switched to using dash for /bin/sh a few months ago
12:42 Changeset [24683] by broder
Use "production" instead of "" for DEBATHENA_RELEASE schroot or sbuild or something scrubs the environment of empty variables before the setup-hook gets run, meaning that DEBATHENA_RELEASE="" translates into an unset DEBATHENA_RELEASE translates into DEBATHENA_RELEASE="-proposed", which is clearly not desirable.
12:34 Changeset [24682] by broder
Fix a typo in chroot-sources
12:30 Changeset [24681] by broder
Fix setup-hook path in sbuildhack. Within the build chroots, /afs is accessible, but /mit isn't.
12:13 Changeset [24680] by broder
Populate the build chroot sources.list based on the Debathena release target. Previously, the build chroots always had production and -proposed in their sources.list, which can be undesirable in several scenarios, e.g. you're re-building packages to go directly into production or you're trying to plan a transition in -development. Instead of keeping Debathena entries in the default sources.list, use sbuildhack's --setup-hook option to populate the sources.list at build time, based on the DEBATHENA_RELEASE environment variable. Assume builds are against the traditional value of production and -proposed if DEBATHENA_RELEASE is unset.
