1 2008-09-20 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
3 * Queue.README (Version): Update the text to match reality with
4 DEFERRED/DELAYED and the removed mv command
6 2008-09-15 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
8 * config: Use 15 delayed dirs. Also change maintainer_mail to
9 ftpmaster. And remove lotsa ancient cvs history foo
11 2008-09-11 Thomas Viehmann <tv@beamnet.de>
13 * debianqueued: Add DELAYED-support.
15 2008-06-15 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
17 * debianqueued: Fix a brown-paper-bag bug (we just dont know who
18 to assign the bag too). strftime %b is better than %B for
21 2008-06-14 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
23 * debianqueued (process_commands): Add a little note that one
24 should use dcut for .commands files
26 2008-05-10 Stephen Gran <sgran@debian.org>
27 * debianqueued: First pass at a send_mail implementation that
28 sucks less. This also gives us X-Debian-Package
30 2008-05-08 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
32 * debianqueued: added header X-Debian: DAK
34 -- Version 0.9 released
36 1999-07-07 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
38 * debianqueued: Implemented new upload methods "copy" and "ftp" as
39 alternatives to "ssh". "copy" simply copies files to another
40 directory on the queue host, "ftp" uses FTP to upload files. Both
41 of course need no ssh-agent.
43 $upload_method, $ftptimeout, $ftpdebug, $ls, $cp, $chmod,
46 $masterlogin -> $targetlogin
47 $masterdir -> $targetdir
48 $chmod_on_master -> $chmod_on_target
50 Note that the FTP method has some limitations: If no SITE MD5SUM
51 command is supported by the server, uploaded files can be verified
52 by their size only. And if removing of files in the target dir
53 isn't allowed, upload errors can't be handled gracefully.
55 * debianqueued: .changes files can now also be signed by GnuPG.
57 * dqueued-watcher: Also updates debian-keyring.gpg.
59 Tue Dec 8 14:09:44 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
61 * debianqueued (process_changes): After an upload, do not remove
62 files with the same name stem if a .changes file is among them.
63 Then there is probably a second upload for a different
66 -- Version 0.8 released
68 Thu May 14 16:17:48 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
70 * debianqueued (process_changes): When --after a successfull
71 upload-- deleting files that seem to belong to the same job, check
72 for equal revision number on files that have one. It has happened
73 that the daemon deleted files that belonged to another job with
74 different revision, which shouldn't happen. The current algorithm
75 is more conservative, i.e. it tends not to delete such files. They
76 will be removed as stray files anyway after some time.
78 Tue Apr 21 10:29:01 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
80 * debianqueued (check_incoming_writable): Also recognize
81 "read-only filesystem" as an error message that makes the daemon
82 think the incoming is unwritable.
84 * debianqueued (check_dir): Break from the .changes loop if
85 $incoming_writable has become cleared.
87 * debianqueued (process_changes): Don't increment failure count if
88 upload failed due to incoming dir being unwritable.
90 * debianqueued (check_dir): Don't use return value of
91 debian_file_stem as regexp, it's a shell pattern.
93 Tue Mar 31 11:06:11 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
95 * debianqueued (process_changes, process_commands): Check for
96 improper mail addresses from Maintainer: fields and try to handle
97 them by looking up the string in the Debian keyring. New funtion
98 try_to_get_mail_addr for the latter.
100 * debianqueued (fatal_signal): Kill status daemon only if it has
103 * debianqueued (copy_to_master): Change mode of files uploaded to
104 master explicitly to 644. scp uses the permission from the
105 original files, and those could be restricted due to local upload
108 Mon Mar 30 13:24:51 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
110 * dqueued-watcher (main): If called with arguments, only make
111 summaries for the log files given. With this, you can view the
112 summaries also between normal watcher runs.
114 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): New arg $to_stdout, to print
115 report directly to stdout instead of sending via mail.
117 Tue Mar 24 14:18:18 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
119 * debianqueued (check_incoming_writable): New function that checks
120 if the incoming dir on master is writable (it isn't during a
121 freeze is done). The check is triggered if an upload fails due to
122 "permission denied" errors. Until the incoming is writable again,
123 the queue is holded and no uploads are tried (so that the max.
124 number of tries isn't exceeded.)
126 -- Version 0.7 released
128 Mon Mar 23 13:23:20 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
130 * debianqueued (process_changes): In an upload failure message,
131 say explicitly that the job will be retried, to avoid confusion of
134 * debianqueued (process_changes): $failure_file was put on
135 @keep_list only for first retry.
137 * debianqueued (process_changes): If the daemon removes a
138 .changes, set SGID bit on all files associated with it, so that
139 the test for Debian files without a .changes doesn't find them.
141 * debianqueued (check_dir): Don't send reports for files without a
142 .changes if the files look like a recompilation for another
143 architecture. Then the maintainer extracted from the files isn't
144 the uploader. A job is treated like that if it doesn't include a
145 .dsc file and no *_{i386,all}.deb files.
147 * debianqueued (check_dir): Also don't send such a report if the
148 list of files with the same stem contains a .changes. This can be
149 the case if an upload failed and the .changes is still around, and
150 there's some file with the same name stem but which isn't in the
151 .changes (e.g. .orig.tar.gz).
153 * debianqueued (process_changes): Set @keep_list earlier, before
154 PGP and non-US checks.
156 * debianqueued (main): Fix recognition of -k argument.
158 Tue Feb 17 11:54:33 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
160 * debianqueued (check_dir): Added test for binaries that could
161 reside on slow NFS filesystems. It is specially annoying if pgp
162 isn't found, because then the .changes is deleted. If one of the
163 files listed in @conf::test_binaries isn't present immediately
164 before a queue run, that one is delayed.
166 -- Version 0.6 released
168 Tue Dec 9 14:53:23 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
170 * debianqueued (process_changes): Reject jobs whose package name
171 is in @nonus_packages (new config var). These must be uploaded to
172 nonus.debian.org instead of master itself.
174 Tue Nov 25 11:02:38 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
176 * debianqueued (main): Implemented -k and -r arguments (kill or
177 restart daemon, resp.)
179 * debianqueued (is_debian_file): Exclude orig.tar.gz files from
180 that class, so that the maintainer address isn't searched in them
181 if they happen to come first in the dir.
183 * debianqueued (END): Fix kill call (pid and signo were swapped)
185 * debianqueued (process_changes): Moved check if job is already on
186 master to a later stage, to avoid connecting to master as long as
187 there are still errors with the job (missing files or the like).
189 * debianqueued (check_alive): Lookup master's IP address before
190 every ping, it could change while the daemon is running...
192 -- Version 0.5 released
194 Mon Nov 11 14:37:52 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
196 * debianqueued (process_commands): rm command now can process more
197 than one argument and knows about wildcards
199 Mon Nov 6 15:09:53 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
201 * debianqueued (process_commands): Recognize commands on the same
202 line as the Commands: keyword, not only on continuation lines.
204 Mon Nov 3 16:49:57 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
206 * debianqueued (close_log): After reopening the log file, write
207 one message it. This avoids that dqueued-watcher's rotating
208 algorithm delays from several minutes to a few hours on every
209 rotate, since it looks at the time of the first entry.
211 Thu Oct 30 13:56:35 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
213 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): Added some new summary counters
216 * debianqueued (process_changes): Added check for files that seem
217 to belong to an upload (match debian_file_stem($changes)), but
218 aren't listed in the .changes. Most probably these are unneeded
219 .orig.tar.gz files. They are deleted.
221 * debianqueued (print_status): Print revision and version number
222 of debianqueued in status file.
224 * debianqueued (process_commands): New function, for processing
225 the new feature of .command files. These enable uploaders to
226 correct mistakes in the queue dir (corrupted/misnamed files)
228 Wed Oct 29 15:35:03 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
230 *debianqueued (check_dir): Extra check for files that look like an
231 upload, but miss a .changes file. A problem report is sent to the
232 probable uploader after $no_changes_timeout seconds (new config
233 var). The maintainer email can be extracted from .dsc, .deb,
234 .diff.gz and .tar.gz files (though the maintainer needs not
235 necessarily be the uploader...) New utility functions
236 is_debian_file, get_maintainer, debian_file_stem.
238 * debianqueued (pgp_check, get_maintainer): Quote filenames used
239 on sh command lines, so metacharacters in the names can't do bad
240 things. (Though wu-ftpd generally shouldn't allow uploading files
243 * debianqueued (print_time): Print times always as
244 hour:minute:second, i.e. don't omit the hour if it's 0. This could
245 confuse users, because they don't know if the hour or the seconds
248 -- Version 0.4 released
250 Thu Sep 25 13:18:57 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
252 * debianqueued (process_changes): Forgot to remove a bad .changes
253 file in some cases (no mail address, not PGP signed at all, no
254 files mentioned). Also initialize some variables to avoid Perl
257 Wed Sep 17 14:15:21 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
259 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): Add feature of writing summaries
260 also to a file. Config var do_summary renamed to mail_summary,
261 additional var summary_file.
263 Mon Sep 15 11:56:59 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
265 * dqueued-watcher: Log several activities of the watcher to the log
266 file; new function logger() for this.
268 * debianqueued (process_changes, check_alive): Make some things more
269 verbose in non-debug mode.
271 Mon Aug 18 13:25:04 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
273 * dqueued-watcher (rotate_log): Using the log file's ctime for
274 calculating its age was a rather bad idea -- starting the daemon
275 updates that time stamp. Now the first date found in the log file
276 is used as basis for age calculation.
278 * dqeued-watcher (make_summary): New function to build a summary
279 of daemon actions when rotating logs. Controlled by config
280 variable $do_summary.
282 Tue Aug 12 13:26:52 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
284 * Makefile: new files with targets for automating various
287 -- Version 0.3 released
289 Mon Aug 11 10:48:31 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
291 * debianqueued (is_on_master, copy_to_master): Oops, forget
292 alarm(0)'s to turn off timeouts again.
294 * debianqueued: Revised the startup scheme so that it also works
295 with the socket-based ssh-agent. That agent periodically checks
296 whether the process it started is still alive and otherwise exits.
297 For that, the go-into-background fork must be done before
298 ssh-agent is started.
300 * debianqueued: Implemented close_log and SIGHUP handling for
303 * dqueued-watcher: Implemented log file rotating.
305 Thu Aug 07 11:25:22 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
307 * debianqueued (is_on_master, copy_to_master): added timeouts to
308 all ssh/scp operations, because I've seen one once hanging...
