  • rsyslog (4.2.0-2ubuntu2) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * Fix log file ownership issues when HUPing an unprivileged rsyslog
        LP: #407862
        - debian/rsyslog.conf: Set $FileOwner to syslog
        - debian/patches/deroot.patch: Always chown output files, since we may
          not be able to read them on a HUP otherwise.
    
     -- Michael Terry <email address hidden>   Mon, 31 Aug 2009 14:58:50 -0400
  • rsyslog (4.2.0-2ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low
    
      [ Michael Terry ]
      * Merge from debian unstable (LP: #413023), remaining changes:
        - Run as rsyslog:rsyslog
        - Allow reading /proc/kmsg when non-root
        - Cleanly upgrade from sysklogd
      * debian/patches/deroot.patch: Don't allow using the klogctl function to
        read klog messages.  Rather, allow /proc/kmsg or nothing, since we have
        special support for reading /proc/kmsg while unprivileged.
    
      [ Neil Wilson ]
      * debian/rsyslog.init: Set blocksize for dd (LP: #407862) and restore
        reload init argument to original lightweight reload
    
     -- Michael Terry <email address hidden>   Thu, 13 Aug 2009 15:43:29 -0400
  • rsyslog (4.2.0-1ubuntu2) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * Prefix Vcs-* fields with "XSBC-Original-" as we don't use git for the
        Ubuntu packages.
      * Strip local from rsyslog's postinst as it shouldn't be used outside of
        functions; LP: #401060.
    
     -- Loic Minier <email address hidden>   Mon, 20 Jul 2009 14:30:14 +0200
  • rsyslog (4.2.0-1ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * Run as rsyslog:rsyslog (LP: #250827, LP: #388608)
        - debian/control: Depend on adduser
        - debian/rsyslog.postinst: Create syslog user
        - debian/rsyslog.postrm: Delete syslog user on purge
        - debian/rsyslog.conf: Use DropPriv config fields
      * Allow reading /proc/kmsg when non-root
        - debian/rsyslog.init: Spawn a dd instance that shovels the /proc/kmsg
          data to a pipe that rsyslog can read (based on Martin Pitt's similar
          change to sysklogd).
        - debian/patches/deroot.patch: Support a KLogPath config field
          to change where the klog plugin looks and only start input modules
          after we drop privileges, as reading when root interferes with
          future reads as syslog.
        - debian/rsyslog.conf: Use KLogPath field to point to dd pipe
      * Cleanly upgrade from sysklogd
        - debian/default.conf, debian/rsyslog.conf:
          Break out the default rules into their own config file
        - debian/rsyslog.install: Install it in /usr/share/rsyslog
        - debian/rsyslog.postinst: If present, copy /etc/syslog.conf into
          /etc/rsyslog.d/default.conf.  Then merge our own default.conf

      * debian/rsyslog.default

          messages.
      * debian/control
        - Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.2. No further changes.

    rsyslog (3.20.3-1) experimental; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release.
      * debian/patches/allowed_sender_reload.patch
        - Removed, merged upstream.
      * debian/patches/manpage_fixes.patch
        - Removed, merged upstream.

      * Refresh all patches for the new upstream stable branch.
      * Enable GSSAPI support

        - Add --enable-gssapi-krb5 to configure flags.
        Thanks to Ben Poliakoff for the patch. Closes: #493044

      * Let rsyslog collect messages as long as possible during shutdown or
        reboot. As /usr may be mounted via NFS, the latest possible point is just
        before umountnfs. Closes: #474498
        - Update the stop priorities for runlevel 0 and 6 from K90 to S30 for
          sysv-rc and migrate existing symlinks.
        - Update LSB header to stop after sendsigs and before umountnfs.
        - Use the sendsigs process omission interface to avoid being killed by
          killall5.
      * debian/rsyslog-doc.links
        - There is an upstream index.html file now, so we no longer need to create
          a symlink.
    
    rsyslog (3.18.6-4) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * debian/patches/message_locking_fix.patch
        - Proper message locking on message destruct to avoid a race condition
          which could lead to a segfault. Closes: #509292
          Patch cherry-picked from upstream git.
      * Urgency medium for the RC bug fix.
      * Use the dbconfig-common template mechanism to generate the configuration
        files for rsyslog-mysql and rsyslog-pgsql. This not only simplifies
        postinst quite a bit, but also makes sure we don't read any unset debconf
        values. Closes: #513589
      * debian/README.Debian
        - Add notes about the Debian specific configuration of rsyslog and outline
          some of the changes between rsyslog and sysklogd which should ease the
          migration. Closes: #484083
        - Add instructions how to avoid doubled hostname entries when sending
          syslog messages from rsyslog to a sysklogd server. Closes: #512663

  • rsyslog (3.18.6-3) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * debian/rsyslog.conf
        - Create new directories with more sane permissions. Closes: #511054
      * debian/rsyslog.init
        - Update the LSB header to not provide the reserved 'syslog' facility. Use
          'rsyslog' instead to avoid clashes. Thanks to Petter Reinholdtsen for
          the hint.
      * debian/patches/allowed_sender_reload.patch
        - Fix segfault on reload when using $AllowedSender. Closes: #511562
          Patch cherry picked from upstream git.
