3 * debianqueued: Fix a brown-paper-bag bug (we just dont know who
4 to assign the bag too). strftime %b is better than %B for
7 2008-06-14 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
9 * debianqueued (process_commands): Add a little note that one
10 should use dcut for .commands files
12 2008-05-10 Stephen Gran <sgran@debian.org>
13 * debianqueued: First pass at a send_mail implementation that
14 sucks less. This also gives us X-Debian-Package
16 2008-05-08 Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>
18 * debianqueued: added header X-Debian: DAK
20 -- Version 0.9 released
22 1999-07-07 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
24 * debianqueued: Implemented new upload methods "copy" and "ftp" as
25 alternatives to "ssh". "copy" simply copies files to another
26 directory on the queue host, "ftp" uses FTP to upload files. Both
27 of course need no ssh-agent.
29 $upload_method, $ftptimeout, $ftpdebug, $ls, $cp, $chmod,
32 $masterlogin -> $targetlogin
33 $masterdir -> $targetdir
34 $chmod_on_master -> $chmod_on_target
36 Note that the FTP method has some limitations: If no SITE MD5SUM
37 command is supported by the server, uploaded files can be verified
38 by their size only. And if removing of files in the target dir
39 isn't allowed, upload errors can't be handled gracefully.
41 * debianqueued: .changes files can now also be signed by GnuPG.
43 * dqueued-watcher: Also updates debian-keyring.gpg.
45 Tue Dec 8 14:09:44 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
47 * debianqueued (process_changes): After an upload, do not remove
48 files with the same name stem if a .changes file is among them.
49 Then there is probably a second upload for a different
52 -- Version 0.8 released
54 Thu May 14 16:17:48 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@ftp.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
56 * debianqueued (process_changes): When --after a successfull
57 upload-- deleting files that seem to belong to the same job, check
58 for equal revision number on files that have one. It has happened
59 that the daemon deleted files that belonged to another job with
60 different revision, which shouldn't happen. The current algorithm
61 is more conservative, i.e. it tends not to delete such files. They
62 will be removed as stray files anyway after some time.
64 Tue Apr 21 10:29:01 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
66 * debianqueued (check_incoming_writable): Also recognize
67 "read-only filesystem" as an error message that makes the daemon
68 think the incoming is unwritable.
70 * debianqueued (check_dir): Break from the .changes loop if
71 $incoming_writable has become cleared.
73 * debianqueued (process_changes): Don't increment failure count if
74 upload failed due to incoming dir being unwritable.
76 * debianqueued (check_dir): Don't use return value of
77 debian_file_stem as regexp, it's a shell pattern.
79 Tue Mar 31 11:06:11 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
81 * debianqueued (process_changes, process_commands): Check for
82 improper mail addresses from Maintainer: fields and try to handle
83 them by looking up the string in the Debian keyring. New funtion
84 try_to_get_mail_addr for the latter.
86 * debianqueued (fatal_signal): Kill status daemon only if it has
89 * debianqueued (copy_to_master): Change mode of files uploaded to
90 master explicitly to 644. scp uses the permission from the
91 original files, and those could be restricted due to local upload
94 Mon Mar 30 13:24:51 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
96 * dqueued-watcher (main): If called with arguments, only make
97 summaries for the log files given. With this, you can view the
98 summaries also between normal watcher runs.
100 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): New arg $to_stdout, to print
101 report directly to stdout instead of sending via mail.
103 Tue Mar 24 14:18:18 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
105 * debianqueued (check_incoming_writable): New function that checks
106 if the incoming dir on master is writable (it isn't during a
107 freeze is done). The check is triggered if an upload fails due to
108 "permission denied" errors. Until the incoming is writable again,
109 the queue is holded and no uploads are tried (so that the max.
110 number of tries isn't exceeded.)
112 -- Version 0.7 released
114 Mon Mar 23 13:23:20 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
116 * debianqueued (process_changes): In an upload failure message,
117 say explicitly that the job will be retried, to avoid confusion of
120 * debianqueued (process_changes): $failure_file was put on
121 @keep_list only for first retry.
123 * debianqueued (process_changes): If the daemon removes a
124 .changes, set SGID bit on all files associated with it, so that
125 the test for Debian files without a .changes doesn't find them.
127 * debianqueued (check_dir): Don't send reports for files without a
128 .changes if the files look like a recompilation for another
129 architecture. Then the maintainer extracted from the files isn't
130 the uploader. A job is treated like that if it doesn't include a
131 .dsc file and no *_{i386,all}.deb files.
133 * debianqueued (check_dir): Also don't send such a report if the
134 list of files with the same stem contains a .changes. This can be
135 the case if an upload failed and the .changes is still around, and
136 there's some file with the same name stem but which isn't in the
137 .changes (e.g. .orig.tar.gz).
139 * debianqueued (process_changes): Set @keep_list earlier, before
140 PGP and non-US checks.
142 * debianqueued (main): Fix recognition of -k argument.
144 Tue Feb 17 11:54:33 1998 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
146 * debianqueued (check_dir): Added test for binaries that could
147 reside on slow NFS filesystems. It is specially annoying if pgp
148 isn't found, because then the .changes is deleted. If one of the
149 files listed in @conf::test_binaries isn't present immediately
150 before a queue run, that one is delayed.
152 -- Version 0.6 released
154 Tue Dec 9 14:53:23 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
156 * debianqueued (process_changes): Reject jobs whose package name
157 is in @nonus_packages (new config var). These must be uploaded to
158 nonus.debian.org instead of master itself.
160 Tue Nov 25 11:02:38 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
162 * debianqueued (main): Implemented -k and -r arguments (kill or
163 restart daemon, resp.)
165 * debianqueued (is_debian_file): Exclude orig.tar.gz files from
166 that class, so that the maintainer address isn't searched in them
167 if they happen to come first in the dir.
169 * debianqueued (END): Fix kill call (pid and signo were swapped)
171 * debianqueued (process_changes): Moved check if job is already on
172 master to a later stage, to avoid connecting to master as long as
173 there are still errors with the job (missing files or the like).
175 * debianqueued (check_alive): Lookup master's IP address before
176 every ping, it could change while the daemon is running...
178 -- Version 0.5 released
180 Mon Nov 11 14:37:52 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
182 * debianqueued (process_commands): rm command now can process more
183 than one argument and knows about wildcards
185 Mon Nov 6 15:09:53 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
187 * debianqueued (process_commands): Recognize commands on the same
188 line as the Commands: keyword, not only on continuation lines.
190 Mon Nov 3 16:49:57 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
192 * debianqueued (close_log): After reopening the log file, write
193 one message it. This avoids that dqueued-watcher's rotating
194 algorithm delays from several minutes to a few hours on every
195 rotate, since it looks at the time of the first entry.
197 Thu Oct 30 13:56:35 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
199 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): Added some new summary counters
202 * debianqueued (process_changes): Added check for files that seem
203 to belong to an upload (match debian_file_stem($changes)), but
204 aren't listed in the .changes. Most probably these are unneeded
205 .orig.tar.gz files. They are deleted.
207 * debianqueued (print_status): Print revision and version number
208 of debianqueued in status file.
210 * debianqueued (process_commands): New function, for processing
211 the new feature of .command files. These enable uploaders to
212 correct mistakes in the queue dir (corrupted/misnamed files)
214 Wed Oct 29 15:35:03 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
216 *debianqueued (check_dir): Extra check for files that look like an
217 upload, but miss a .changes file. A problem report is sent to the
218 probable uploader after $no_changes_timeout seconds (new config
219 var). The maintainer email can be extracted from .dsc, .deb,
220 .diff.gz and .tar.gz files (though the maintainer needs not
221 necessarily be the uploader...) New utility functions
222 is_debian_file, get_maintainer, debian_file_stem.
224 * debianqueued (pgp_check, get_maintainer): Quote filenames used
225 on sh command lines, so metacharacters in the names can't do bad
226 things. (Though wu-ftpd generally shouldn't allow uploading files
229 * debianqueued (print_time): Print times always as
230 hour:minute:second, i.e. don't omit the hour if it's 0. This could
231 confuse users, because they don't know if the hour or the seconds
234 -- Version 0.4 released
236 Thu Sep 25 13:18:57 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
238 * debianqueued (process_changes): Forgot to remove a bad .changes
239 file in some cases (no mail address, not PGP signed at all, no
240 files mentioned). Also initialize some variables to avoid Perl
243 Wed Sep 17 14:15:21 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
245 * dqueued-watcher (make_summary): Add feature of writing summaries
246 also to a file. Config var do_summary renamed to mail_summary,
247 additional var summary_file.
249 Mon Sep 15 11:56:59 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
251 * dqueued-watcher: Log several activities of the watcher to the log
252 file; new function logger() for this.
254 * debianqueued (process_changes, check_alive): Make some things more
255 verbose in non-debug mode.
257 Mon Aug 18 13:25:04 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
259 * dqueued-watcher (rotate_log): Using the log file's ctime for
260 calculating its age was a rather bad idea -- starting the daemon
261 updates that time stamp. Now the first date found in the log file
262 is used as basis for age calculation.
264 * dqeued-watcher (make_summary): New function to build a summary
265 of daemon actions when rotating logs. Controlled by config
266 variable $do_summary.
268 Tue Aug 12 13:26:52 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
270 * Makefile: new files with targets for automating various
273 -- Version 0.3 released
275 Mon Aug 11 10:48:31 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
277 * debianqueued (is_on_master, copy_to_master): Oops, forget
278 alarm(0)'s to turn off timeouts again.
280 * debianqueued: Revised the startup scheme so that it also works
281 with the socket-based ssh-agent. That agent periodically checks
282 whether the process it started is still alive and otherwise exits.
283 For that, the go-into-background fork must be done before
284 ssh-agent is started.
286 * debianqueued: Implemented close_log and SIGHUP handling for
289 * dqueued-watcher: Implemented log file rotating.
291 Thu Aug 07 11:25:22 1997 Linux FTP-Administrator <ftplinux@arachnia.rrze.uni-erlangen.de>
293 * debianqueued (is_on_master, copy_to_master): added timeouts to
294 all ssh/scp operations, because I've seen one once hanging...
