openafs 1.4.8.dfsg1-2 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

openafs (1.4.8.dfsg1-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Make openafs-modules-source architecture-specific (arch: any instead
    of arch: all).  The new method for generating the kernel source tree
    only generates correct build machinery for the architecture on which
    it was built, making the package architecture-specific.  The generated
    tree is so much smaller that this still only uses about 1MB of archive
    space more than the old method and makes each openafs-modules-source
    package much smaller.  This is a workaround until we can fix
    libafs_tree to include enough build machinery to handle all Linux
    architectures from one source tree.  (Closes: #516023)
  * Explicitly remove *-stamp files in the clean target of the module
    build until the module build is upgraded to debhelper 7.

openafs (1.4.8.dfsg1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.  (Closes: #511535)
    - Support 2.6.28 kernels.  (LP: #303112)
    - Check at compile time that the kernel has keyring support rather
      than building non-functional modules.  (Closes: #500850)
    - Include vos clone man page.  (LP: #324449)
  * Apply upstream CVS deltas:
    - STABLE14-libuafs-updates-20081229: prerequisite for other deltas.
    - STABLE14-linux-truncate-race-20090109: avoid race condition during
      truncation.
    - STABLE14-linux-i-size-20090112: further fix for truncation race.
    - STABLE14-linux-truncate-cleanup-20090113: further truncation fix.
    - STABLE14-osi-probe-check-result-cope-with-enoent-20090115: fix for
      syscall probing.
    - STABLE14-linux-2629-20090115: support for 2.6.29 kernels.
      (Closes: #513680)
    - STABLE14-rx-idledead-only-ignore-keepalives-20081222: rx bug fix to
      not ignore other ping packets.
    - STABLE14-rx-rdwr-writeproc-race-20081228: fix rx race condition that
      could result in reuse of freed memory.
    - STABLE14-rx-do-not-race-current-packet-20090105: fix rx race
      condition.
  * Use make libafs_tree to generate the tree for the kernel module
    compile rather than copying the entire source tree.
  * Compress the source in openafs-modules-source with bzip2 instead of
    gzip to reduce the package size.
  * Make dynroot the default for new installations.  It works much better
    with systems that don't bring up their network until late in the boot
    process, such as wireless laptops.  (LP: #249240, #318605)
  * Mention libpam-afs-session instead of libpam-openafs-session in the
    description of libpam-openafs-kaserver, and mention libpam-krb5 by
    name.  Thanks, Philipp Kaluza.  (Closes: #501308)
  * Suggest module-assistant auto-install in README.modules and be clearer
    that building one's own kernel is not required.  Thanks, Anders
    Kaseorg and Lutz Goehring for suggestions.  (LP: #295897)
  * Allow time-daemon to satisfy the openafs-fileserver recommends in
    addition to ntp, allowing for openntpd.  (Closes: #508258)
  * General improvements to debconf configuration handling.
    - Do not abort the config script if we have no default realm and
      dnsdomainname fails.  (LP: #274886, #318132)
    - Do not abort postinst if we can't resolve any host name for the
      cell.  Just continue in that case, omitting any configuration for
      the local cell.  (LP: #322054)
    - Correctly set the default for AFS_CRYPT from the existing config.
    - The cache size is high, not critical, since we have a default.
    - Don't create the client ThisCell if no local cell was specified.
    - Improve the leading comment in afs.conf.client.  Users can edit it,
      but any changes other than the setting values will be lost.
    - Remove the openafs-fileserver/bosconfig_moved template, which would
      only be shown on upgrades from pre-1.2.0 versions.
    - Standardize coding style and always quote strings.
  * Update to debhelper compatibility level V7.
    - Use dh where possible in debian/rules.
    - Use dh_lintian to install Lintian overrides.
    - Eliminate the configure target and do all the work in build.
    - Do more in the install target and less in binary, matching the
      default command stacks in dh.
    - Use a debian/clean configuration file to let dh clean do more of the
      work rather than using rm commands in debian/rules.
  * Abort the config script rather than exiting successfully if the
    debconf shell module is not available.  The config script should never
    be run in the absence of debconf, so if this fails, something deeper
    is wrong and we shouldn't blindly continue.
  * Add ${misc:Depends} to all dependencies.
  * Add explanations for the Lintian overrides.
  * Use set -e instead of #!/bin/sh -e in maintainer scripts.
  * Remove server documentation from openafs-modules-source.
  * Translation updates:
    - Spanish, thanks Francisco Javier Cuadrado.  (Closes: #514452)
