openafs 1.6.3-1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

openafs (1.6.3-1) unstable; urgency=low


  * New upstream release.
    - Support for Linux 3.9 and 3.10.  (Closes: #711920)
    - Multiple fixes for use after free, use of uninitialized memory,
      and similar C memory management bugs found via code analysis.
    - Obey jumbo/nojumbo settings for Ubik (database) servers.
    - General improvements in diagnostic and log messages.
    - Avoid incorrectly sending small amounts of data over the wire
      unencrypted in some situations and report the correct error message
      in this case.
    - Avoid generating duplicate IDs for readonly and backup volumes.
    - Return quota and free space information without an access check.
    - Improve client bookkeeping in the file server, fixing several
      potential corruption and segfault issues.
    - Avoid known cases of silent data corruption in background syncs in
      the file server.
    - Run-time configuration support for fileserver synchronization.
    - Fix transient network error interference with establishing a ubik
      quorum.
    - Do not discard the persistent client disk cache on restart.
    - Fix bugs that made it impossible to unmount a disk cache file system
      after it had been used by the client.
  * Give openafs-dbserver its own documentation directory rather than
    linking it to openafs-client, allowing relaxation of the versioned
    dependency on openafs-client to Recommends.  (However, openafs-client
    will still have to be installed for the openafs-fileserver init
    script, which uses the bos binary, so will still be pulled in by
    dependencies.)
  * Cleanup of the openafs-client postinst script.
    - Perform all work unconditionally to handle various rare error
      recovery cases properly.
    - Only force creation of CellServDB on initial installation or if
      AFSDB/SRV records are not being used.
  * Remove openafs-fileserver postinst support for upgrades from ancient
    versions (1.4.4.dfsg1-4 and 1.4.11+dfsg-3).
  * General coding style cleanup of maintainer scripts.
