This isn't the case on + "VPATH builds", for example. + - Use $(MKDIR_P) instead of $(mkinstalldirs) in Makefile's and test for + "mkdir -p" using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P in "configure". + - Fix configure script and "make check" for TCP Wrappers (problems spotted on + OpenBSD): add missing #include's and static variables, and add libwrap at + the end of the configure run because if libwrap becomes added earlier, + other tests may fail. + - configure: add support for the LDFLAGS_END and LIBS_END variables to add + linker flags and libraries at the end of the configure run (CFLAGS_END has + been implemented already). + - platformtest.sh and Makefile.am: Don't use "test -e", it isn't portable. + - Update Copyright notices for 2014 :-) + - Fix permanent {G|K}LINES (with a timeout of 0 seconds). + - WEBIRC: Don't set the hostname received by the WEBIRC command when DNS + lookups are disabled, but use the IP address instead. + Reported by Toni Spets , thanks! + - Check for working getaddrinfo() function: At least AIX 4.3.3 and 5.1 have a + broken implementation of getaddrinfo() which doesn't handle "0" as numeric + service correctly. This patch adds a configure check for this case and + changes all calling functions to only use getaddrinfo() if it "works". + See + - Only use the unsetenv() function when it is available (AIX 4.3 doesn't + support it, for example). + - Make sure that the source code is still compatible with the "ansi2knr" tool + and builds using non-ANSI K&R C compilers. Tested with Apple C on A/UX. + - Fix building ngIRCd without support for ZLIB compression. Reported by + "der_baer" on #ngircd, thanks! + ngIRCd 21 (2013-10-30) - ./contrib/Debian/ngircd.init: Make sure no stale PID file is left over when (re-)starting ngIRCd. - Change ./contrib/platformtest.sh and update ./doc/Platforms.txt to - allow usernames up to 8 characters. + allow user names up to 8 characters. - Call arc4random_stir() in forked subprocesses, when available. This is required by FreeBSD <10 and current NetBSD at least to correctly initialize the "arc4" random number generator on these platforms. diff --git a/doc/INSTALL b/doc/INSTALL index bbff1f2..998274a 100644 --- a/doc/INSTALL +++ b/doc/INSTALL @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ ngIRCd - Next Generation IRC Server http://ngircd.barton.de/ - (c)2001-2013 Alexander Barton and Contributors. + (c)2001-2014 Alexander Barton and Contributors. ngIRCd is free software and published under the terms of the GNU General Public License. diff --git a/doc/NEWS b/doc/NEWS index ebbc022..2f2ac67 100644 --- a/doc/NEWS +++ b/doc/NEWS @@ -2,13 +2,24 @@ ngIRCd - Next Generation IRC Server http://ngircd.barton.de/ - (c)2001-2013 Alexander Barton and Contributors. + (c)2001-2014 Alexander Barton and Contributors. ngIRCd is free software and published under the terms of the GNU General Public License. -- NEWS -- +ngIRCd 21.1 (2014-03-25) + + - Don't ignore but use the server password when PAM is compiled in but + disabled.
