Changelog

rsyslog (5.8.11-2ubuntu1) raring; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    - Run as rsyslog:rsyslog, set $FileOwner to syslog
    - Replace init script with debian/rsyslog.upstart.
    - debian/rsyslog.logrotate: Use reload command to restart rsyslog
    - debian/rsyslog.conf: enable $RepeatedMsgReduction
      to avoid bloating the syslog file.
    - Add debian/rsyslog.dmesg.upstart to save initial dmesg into a file.
      Install it in debian/rules.
    - debian/50-default.conf: set of default rules for syslog (forwarded to
      Debian #603160). remove file in postrm on purge. manage with ucf.
    - debian/rules: build with LDFLAGS=""
    - Add disabled by default AppArmor profile:
      + debian/rsyslog.upstart: add pre-start stanza to load profile
      + add debian/usr.sbin.rsyslogd profile
      + debian/rules: use dh_apparmor to install profile before rsyslog is
        restarted
      + debian/control: suggests apparmor (>= 2.3)
      + debian/rsyslog.install: install profile to /etc/apparmor.d
      + debian/rsyslog.dirs: install /etc/apparmor.d/force-complain,
        and /etc/apparmor.d/disable
      + debian/rsyslog.preinst: disable profile on clean install or upgrades
        from earlier than when we shipped the profile
      + debian/control: Build-Depends on dh-apparmor
    - debian/rsyslog.postrm: fixed typo "dissappear" to "disappear".
    - debian/rsyslog.postinst: fix ownership of /var/spool/rsyslog.
  * Dropped:
    - All Ubuntu specific patches; included upstream.
    - debian/rsyslog.dirs: add /var/spool/rsyslog/.
    - debian/rsyslog.conf: set $WorkDirectory to /var/spool/rsyslog.

rsyslog (5.8.11-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Disable omstdout module again. Upstream doesn't consider it viable for
    production use but mainly for the internal testbench.
  * debian/patches/03-fix_relp_dns_resolution.patch: When using RELP for
    remote logging, correctly resolve the client hostname if the fromhost
    property contains the client IP. (Closes: #682529)
    Thanks to Apollon Oikonomopoulos for the patch.

rsyslog (5.8.8-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
    - Fix imuxsock to not truncate parts of the received message if it
      did not contain a proper date. (Closes: #654429)
    - Fix imuxsock example in rsyslog.conf(5) man page. (Closes: #655846)
  * Fix versioned Build-Depends on dpkg-dev. The buildflags.mk snippet was
    added in version 1.16.1, not 1.6.1. (Closes: #654894)
  * Update watch file. Check download page for stable releases.
  * Strip debian/tmp/ from .install files.
  * Install tmpfiles.d snippet to create /dev/xconsole when running under
    systemd. (Closes: #634978)
  * debian/patches/02-path_max.patch
    - Don't rely on PATH_MAX being defined. Patch cherry-picked from upstream
      Git. (Closes: #651529)
  * debian/rsyslog.init
    - Use --exec instead of --name for start-stop-daemon. This is more
      reliable and works better on GNU/Hurd. (Closes: #652575)
    - Use /run/xconsole and a symlink /dev/xconsole on non-Linux systems.
  * debian/rsyslog.default
    - Update comments regarding available command line switches. Remove
      deprecated options.
  * debian/rsyslog.links
    - Install syslog.service alias so rsyslog is properly socket activated
      with newer versions of systemd.
  * debian/copyright
    - Use maschine-readable copyright format 1.0.
    - Most parts of rsyslog have been relicensed under Apache license 2.0.
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3.
  * debian/rsyslog.conf
    - Set $WorkDirectory to /var/spool/rsyslog, which is used for spool and
      state files. When not configured it defaults to '/', which is
      undesirable. (LP: #918947, Closes: #656535)
  * debian/rsyslog.dirs
    - Add /var/spool/rsyslog/.
