3 * debianqueued: Add DELAYED-support.
5 2008-06-15 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
7 * debianqueued: Fix a brown-paper-bag bug (we just dont know who
8 to assign the bag too). strftime %b is better than %B for
11 2008-06-14 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
13 * debianqueued (process_commands): Add a little note that one
14 should use dcut for .commands files
16 2008-05-10 Stephen Gran <sgran@debian.org>
17 * debianqueued: First pass at a send_mail implementation that
18 sucks less. This also gives us X-Debian-Package
20 2008-05-08 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
22 * debianqueued: added header X-Debian: DAK
24 -- Version 0.9 released
26 1999-07-07 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
28 * debianqueued: Implemented new upload methods "copy" and "ftp" as
29 alternatives to "ssh". "copy" simply copies files to another
30 directory on the queue host, "ftp" uses FTP to upload files. Both
31 of course need no ssh-agent.
33 $upload_method, $ftptimeout, $ftpdebug, $ls, $cp, $chmod,
36 $masterlogin -> $targetlogin
37 $masterdir -> $targetdir
38 $chmod_on_master -> $chmod_on_target
40 Note that the FTP method has some limitations: If no SITE MD5SUM
41 command is supported by the server, uploaded files can be verified
42 by their size only. And if removing of files in the target dir
43 isn't allowed, upload errors can't be handled gracefully.
45 * debianqueued: .changes files can now also be signed by GnuPG.
47 * dqueued-watcher: Also updates debian-keyring.gpg.
49 Tue Dec 8 14:09:44 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
51 * debianqueued (process_changes): After an upload, do not remove
52 files with the same name stem if a .changes file is among them.
53 Then there is probably a second upload for a different
56 -- Version 0.8 released
58 Thu May 14 16:17:48 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
60 * debianqueued (process_changes): When --after a successfull
61 upload-- deleting files that seem to belong to the same job, check
62 for equal revision number on files that have one. It has happened
63 that the daemon deleted files that belonged to another job with
64 different revision, which shouldn't happen. The current algorithm
65 is more conservative, i.e. it tends not to delete such files. They
66 will be removed as stray files anyway after some time.
68 Tue Apr 21 10:29:01 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
70 * debianqueued (check_incoming_writable): Also recognize
71 "read-only filesystem" as an error message that makes the daemon
72 think the incoming is unwritable.
74 * debianqueued (check_dir): Break from the .changes loop if
75 $incoming_writable has become cleared.
77 * debianqueued (process_changes): Don't increment failure count if
78 upload failed due to incoming dir being unwritable.
80 * debianqueued (check_dir): Don't use return value of
81 debian_file_stem as regexp, it's a shell pattern.
83 Tue Mar 31 11:06:11 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
85 * debianqueued (process_changes, process_commands): Check for
86 improper mail addresses from Maintainer: fields and try to handle
87 them by looking up the string in the Debian keyring. New funtion
88 try_to_get_mail_addr for the latter.
90 * debianqueued (fatal_signal): Kill status daemon only if it has
93 * debianqueued (copy_to_master): Change mode of files uploaded to
94 master explicitly to 644. scp uses the permission from the
95 original files, and those could be restricted due to local upload
98 Mon Mar 30 13:24:51 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
100 * dqueued-watcher (main): If called with arguments, only make
101 summaries for the log files given. With this, you can view the
102 summaries also between normal watcher runs.
104 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): New arg $to_stdout, to print
105 report directly to stdout instead of sending via mail.
107 Tue Mar 24 14:18:18 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
109 * debianqueued (check_incoming_writable): New function that checks
110 if the incoming dir on master is writable (it isn't during a
111 freeze is done). The check is triggered if an upload fails due to
112 "permission denied" errors. Until the incoming is writable again,
113 the queue is holded and no uploads are tried (so that the max.
114 number of tries isn't exceeded.)
116 -- Version 0.7 released
118 Mon Mar 23 13:23:20 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
120 * debianqueued (process_changes): In an upload failure message,
121 say explicitly that the job will be retried, to avoid confusion of
124 * debianqueued (process_changes): $failure_file was put on
125 @keep_list only for first retry.
127 * debianqueued (process_changes): If the daemon removes a
128 .changes, set SGID bit on all files associated with it, so that
129 the test for Debian files without a .changes doesn't find them.
131 * debianqueued (check_dir): Don't send reports for files without a
132 .changes if the files look like a recompilation for another
133 architecture. Then the maintainer extracted from the files isn't
134 the uploader. A job is treated like that if it doesn't include a
135 .dsc file and no *_{i386,all}.deb files.
137 * debianqueued (check_dir): Also don't send such a report if the
138 list of files with the same stem contains a .changes. This can be
139 the case if an upload failed and the .changes is still around, and
140 there's some file with the same name stem but which isn't in the
141 .changes (e.g. .orig.tar.gz).
143 * debianqueued (process_changes): Set @keep_list earlier, before
144 PGP and non-US checks.
146 * debianqueued (main): Fix recognition of -k argument.
148 Tue Feb 17 11:54:33 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
150 * debianqueued (check_dir): Added test for binaries that could
151 reside on slow NFS filesystems. It is specially annoying if pgp
152 isn't found, because then the .changes is deleted. If one of the
153 files listed in @conf::test_binaries isn't present immediately
154 before a queue run, that one is delayed.
156 -- Version 0.6 released
158 Tue Dec 9 14:53:23 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
160 * debianqueued (process_changes): Reject jobs whose package name
161 is in @nonus_packages (new config var). These must be uploaded to
162 nonus.debian.org instead of master itself.
164 Tue Nov 25 11:02:38 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
166 * debianqueued (main): Implemented -k and -r arguments (kill or
167 restart daemon, resp.)
169 * debianqueued (is_debian_file): Exclude orig.tar.gz files from
170 that class, so that the maintainer address isn't searched in them
171 if they happen to come first in the dir.
173 * debianqueued (END): Fix kill call (pid and signo were swapped)
175 * debianqueued (process_changes): Moved check if job is already on
176 master to a later stage, to avoid connecting to master as long as
177 there are still errors with the job (missing files or the like).
179 * debianqueued (check_alive): Lookup master's IP address before
180 every ping, it could change while the daemon is running...
182 -- Version 0.5 released
184 Mon Nov 11 14:37:52 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
186 * debianqueued (process_commands): rm command now can process more
187 than one argument and knows about wildcards
189 Mon Nov 6 15:09:53 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
191 * debianqueued (process_commands): Recognize commands on the same
192 line as the Commands: keyword, not only on continuation lines.
194 Mon Nov 3 16:49:57 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
196 * debianqueued (close_log): After reopening the log file, write
197 one message it. This avoids that dqueued-watcher's rotating
198 algorithm delays from several minutes to a few hours on every
199 rotate, since it looks at the time of the first entry.
201 Thu Oct 30 13:56:35 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
203 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): Added some new summary counters
206 * debianqueued (process_changes): Added check for files that seem
207 to belong to an upload (match debian_file_stem($changes)), but
208 aren't listed in the .changes. Most probably these are unneeded
209 .orig.tar.gz files. They are deleted.
211 * debianqueued (print_status): Print revision and version number
212 of debianqueued in status file.
214 * debianqueued (process_commands): New function, for processing
215 the new feature of .command files. These enable uploaders to
216 correct mistakes in the queue dir (corrupted/misnamed files)
218 Wed Oct 29 15:35:03 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
220 *debianqueued (check_dir): Extra check for files that look like an
221 upload, but miss a .changes file. A problem report is sent to the
222 probable uploader after $no_changes_timeout seconds (new config
223 var). The maintainer email can be extracted from .dsc, .deb,
224 .diff.gz and .tar.gz files (though the maintainer needs not
225 necessarily be the uploader...) New utility functions
226 is_debian_file, get_maintainer, debian_file_stem.
228 * debianqueued (pgp_check, get_maintainer): Quote filenames used
229 on sh command lines, so metacharacters in the names can't do bad
230 things. (Though wu-ftpd generally shouldn't allow uploading files
233 * debianqueued (print_time): Print times always as
234 hour:minute:second, i.e. don't omit the hour if it's 0. This could
235 confuse users, because they don't know if the hour or the seconds
238 -- Version 0.4 released
240 Thu Sep 25 13:18:57 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
242 * debianqueued (process_changes): Forgot to remove a bad .changes
243 file in some cases (no mail address, not PGP signed at all, no
244 files mentioned). Also initialize some variables to avoid Perl
247 Wed Sep 17 14:15:21 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
249 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): Add feature of writing summaries
250 also to a file. Config var do_summary renamed to mail_summary,
251 additional var summary_file.
253 Mon Sep 15 11:56:59 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
255 * dqueued-watcher: Log several activities of the watcher to the log
256 file; new function logger() for this.
258 * debianqueued (process_changes, check_alive): Make some things more
259 verbose in non-debug mode.
261 Mon Aug 18 13:25:04 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
263 * dqueued-watcher (rotate_log): Using the log file's ctime for
264 calculating its age was a rather bad idea -- starting the daemon
265 updates that time stamp. Now the first date found in the log file
266 is used as basis for age calculation.
268 * dqeued-watcher (make_summary): New function to build a summary
269 of daemon actions when rotating logs. Controlled by config
270 variable $do_summary.
272 Tue Aug 12 13:26:52 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
274 * Makefile: new files with targets for automating various
277 -- Version 0.3 released
279 Mon Aug 11 10:48:31 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
281 * debianqueued (is_on_master, copy_to_master): Oops, forget
282 alarm(0)'s to turn off timeouts again.
284 * debianqueued: Revised the startup scheme so that it also works
285 with the socket-based ssh-agent. That agent periodically checks
286 whether the process it started is still alive and otherwise exits.
287 For that, the go-into-background fork must be done before
288 ssh-agent is started.
290 * debianqueued: Implemented close_log and SIGHUP handling for
293 * dqueued-watcher: Implemented log file rotating.
295 Thu Aug 07 11:25:22 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
297 * debianqueued (is_on_master, copy_to_master): added timeouts to
298 all ssh/scp operations, because I've seen one once hanging...
