434 was necessary in the past when initramfs-utils' configure_networking
435 function could only be called from /init, but it was a hack and a
436 workaround and it broke expectations. And it was ugly. Since

441 variable. Closes: #568222. This supersedes the previous (broken)

449 value so that any modifications would work, but we don't actually
450 use anything from /usr ourselves, and no, we really don't want to

488 * Remove overrides for dh_gencontrol and dh_builddeb, since debhelper
489 7.4 no longer needs -s arguments. Bump required version of debhelper
490 in build-depends to 7.4.0
491 * Some more clarification and fixes to nbd-client README.Debian

495 * Add lintian overrides for "missing-stop" on nbd-client.init.d. We

504 * Add Vcs-Browser and Homepage headers, too.
505 * Remove --sourcedir argument from dh_install. We don't run make

512 nbd (1:2.9.13-3) unstable; urgency=low
514 * nbd-client initscript:
515 - replace `expr $i + 1` by $(( $i + 1 )), since expr is in /usr/bin
516 which may not yet be mounted when we run this initscript. Closes:
518 - check whether a device is connected at startup, and ignore those
519 that are. Since we don't use 'set -e', that makes us compliant
520 with the 'must exit successfully and not start the daemon again'
521 part of policy 3.8.1.
522 * nbd-server.postinst: call adduser only if 'nbd' user does not yet
523 exist. Closes: #540604.
524 * Convert to debhelper 7's "dh" mode.
525 * Replace ifeq() make constructs with debhelper's -s option in a
526 couple of overrides. Thanks to Joey Hess for pointing out that the
527 option already exists when I filed a wishlist bug asking for it...
529 * Add debian packaging to git repository, and publish on

541 * nbd-client.README.Debian: add a bit more clarification on how
542 root-on-NBD is supposed to work.
543 * nbd-client.init.d: parse /proc/cmdline rather than /proc/mounts
544 (the same way as how nbd-client.initrd does it) to figure out what
545 the NBD root device is, so that root-on-LVM-on-nbd or something
546 equally batshit insane does not confuse the sendsigs.omit.d
548 * nbd-client.init.d: add support for an OMITKILL variable that will
549 allow to specify extra nbd devices that should receive the same
550 protection as for the above.
551 * nbd-client.config: fetch KILLALL value from /etc/nbd-client (if it
552 exists) and use it to db_set nbd-client/killall
553 * nbd-client.postinst: fix so that KILLALL is correctly written to
554 /etc/nbd-client, even if the number of devices is zero.
555 * The above four were inspired by conversations with Vagrant
556 Cascadian, while he was working on LTSP support in Debian. Thanks!

584 * The "spring cleaning" release.
585 * New upstream release.
586 - The meaning of the -swap option has been changed; rather than
587 trying to use a kernel patch which hasn't been maintained since
588 the Linux 2.1.something days, use mlockall() to make sure we don't
589 get swapped out. Closes: #409530.
590 - Steal patch from git HEAD to document this change in nbd-client(8).
591 - Removed (corrupt) winnbd.zip. Closes: #473823.
592 * The Debconf templates have been reviewed by the debian-l10n-english
593 team; incorporate those changes. Closes: #528476, 430701, 530711.
594 * Updated debconf translations, to reflect the above:
596 - Swedish, by Martin Bagge; Closes: #529859.
597 - Czech, by Miroslav Kure; Closes: #530236.
598 - French, by Christian Perrier and the French l10n team; Closes: #530332.
599 - Portuguese, by "Traduz - Portuguese Translation Team"; Closes: #531303.
600 * New debconf translations:
601 - Russian, by Yuri Kozlov; Closes: #531203.
602 * nbd-client: install nbd-client.modprobe using debhelper rather than
603 using our own 'install' invocation. This takes care of giving it the
604 proper name (re recent module-init-tools) and moving files from the
605 old to the new location. Depend on debhelper (>= 7.2.2) to make sure
606 it has the required functionality to handle this correctly.
607 * nbd-client.init.d: remove '-k' option from modprobe. This was once
608 useful in the 2.4 days, but module-init-tools modprobe has never
609 needed that option, and now produces an error message when it's
610 used. Closes: #531620.
611 * (Conditionally, compliant with the new DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS' "nocheck"
612 option) re-enable the test suite. It did /not/ give false positives,
613 ever. However, it did indeed break at some point...
614 * Update to debhelper compat level 7.
615 * nbd-client.postinst: don't use full path to update-initramfs.
616 * copyright: refer to common-licenses/GPL-2 rather than the versionless
618 * That leaves one TODO for Policy 3.8.1: initscripts must not error
619 out when 'start' is called and the daemon is already running. This
620 will require some work (it might be there already, but I'm not sure
621 and would need to test extensively).

643 * The "merry christmas" release.
644 * nbd-client: Install /etc/modprobe.d/nbd, which specifies a
645 'max_part' parameter, to support partitions in NBD.
646 * nbd-client.initrd: Strip partition number off the nbdbasedev and
647 nbdrootdev parameters, to support booting off a partition rather
648 than a device, if that is wanted.
649 * nbd-client.init.d: In case of root-on-nbd, save our PID to
650 /lib/init/rw/sendsigs.omit.d, so that we don't lose our root
651 filesystem prematurely on shutdown.
652 * nbd-client.postinst: call update-initramfs -u, to make initramfs
653 script be actually installed.
654 * configure.ac: remove KLCC crap, so that compilation doesn't break if
655 klcc was accidentally installed. Is applied upstream for 2.9.12, but
656 that isn't ready yet. Also, re-run autoconf.

658 which it really is. Closes: #507875.

660 to nbd); add ${misc:Depends} to depends line on both nbd-server and

1154 but I'd just like to avoid "new upstream!" bugs before they happen.
1155 * nbd.h usage logic reversed: use the local one first; if that doesn't
1156 work, fall back to <linux/nbd.h>.

1159 #endif), we won't wait for that. Closes: #223194. That's an RC bug,

1206 This allows me to use start-stop-daemon, instead of having to do all
1207 kinds of weird stuff in sh. And it also makes the postinst behave in
1208 that it no longer hangs, waiting for something to happen which never
1210 It breaks one thing, though: nbd-server used to look in the 'current
1211 directory' at the time it was started to find the 'nbd_server.allow'
1212 file, a hosts.allow-style file containing machines that are allowed to
1213 log on. Since the daemon() call requires to change the current
1214 directory to the root-directory, it is now looked for at that
1215 place. Will be fixed ASAP, but I wanted to get this out first.

1310 Support, it is being compiled with the precompiler directive
1311 _LARGEFILE_SOURCE set, and with the precompiler directive

1320 * Added a sanity check to nbd-client's initscript: if the version of the
1321 kernel is < 2.4, disconnecting the client is not available, so
1322 restart will fail horribly, which also impacts upgrades. To avoid this
1323 problem, restart is made non-functional on kernels < 2.4.

1419 which is not the case if you use a "restart".

1421 stable CVS branch which is only updated as bugs are fixed), use
1422 "1.2-cvsYYYYMMDD" as upstream version now.

1434 * Made /dev-entry debconf-question a bit clearer (Closes: #127094)
1435 * Explained the use of the nbd_server.allow file in nbd-server's manpage
1436 (partially closes #127098)

1448 * Added an invocation of fsck to nbd-client's initscript. This should've
1449 been done in 1:1.2-1. Really.

1453 nbd (1:1.2-10) unstable; urgency=low
1455 * Applied patch from Branden Robinson for nbd-server's initscript
1456 (partially closes #117045)
1457 * Modified nbd-server's postinst so that it doesn't write it's
1458 information twice to /etc/nbd-server (Closes: #117045).
1459 * Changed shebang-line of all scripts that source the configfile to use
1460 /bin/bash instead of /bin/sh. I thought it would be no problem if I
1461 don't actually use the variable, but even the variable name isn't
1462 POSIXly correct (Closes: #117303).
1463 * Changed priority of AUTO_GEN debconf to low. You don't want to see
1464 this during an installation, only during a reconfigure. Also, added a
1465 similar note to nbd-server, since it now supports this variable too.

1469 nbd (1:1.2-9) unstable; urgency=low
1471 * Fixed nbd-server's debconf configuration so that it actually works
1472 now. Always interesting, huh?
1473 * Added some upstream-suggested changes to nbd-server.c so that it
1474 should build on mips and mipsel too, now (Closes: #115110). Added mips
1475 and mipsel to Architecture line (I created that line with the output
1476 of madison nearby. But since it never built on mips before... well...)
1477 * Fixed some minor bugs in initscripts and postinsts.

1483 * removed a syntaxis fault from nbd-server's postrm. Dunno why I
1484 didn't find this earlier...

1488 nbd (1:1.2-7) unstable; urgency=low
1490 * Since my TODO list is kinda complete now (Yeehaw!), remove the
1491 reference to it from debian/control.
1492 * Aestetical changes to initscript of nbd-server
1493 * Uncommented things in nbd-client's initscript. It didn't work before,
1494 but apparently it does now. I have no idea what was wrong; probably a
1495 bug in another package (most likely, bash) that has been solved now
1496 (it never looked wrong to me anyway). Please file a bug if I was
1498 * Now really modified nbd-client.postinst to do what it was supposed to
1499 do in 1:1.2-6. Actually, in -6 I modified nbd-server.postinst, but
1500 didn't touch nbd-client.postinst. I thus now modified
1501 nbd-client.postinst to reflect changes made to nbd-server.postinst in
1502 -6. Should've done that in the previous release, probably.
1503 * Removed hurd-i386 from architecture, since it doesn't build there
1505 There has been some effort to port NBD to the Hurd, though, so I'll
1506 change the "Architecture:" line at some point in the future, when
1507 everything compiles cleanly. Not now, though.
1508 * Added pt_BR translations of both debconf templates. Thanks go to Andre
1509 Luis Lopes <andrelop@ig.com.br> (Closes: #115617, 115621)

1515 * Added german translation of debian/nbd-server.templates. Thanks go to
1516 Sebastian Feltel <sebastian@feltel.de> (Closes: #113486).
1517 * Minor changes to nbd-server manpage.
1518 * Made debian/nbd-server.postinst a bit more portable so that it creates
1519 good output, even if /bin/sh does not point to /bin/bash. Also, added
1520 support for extra options to /etc/nbd-server; add an array called
1521 NBD_SERVER_OPTS with the options you'd like (Closes: #113726). Since
1522 these options are probably quite rarely needed, I didn't change the
1523 debconf-configuration.
1524 * Slightly modified nbd-client.postinst so that grep dumps
1525 "NBD_DEVICE[0]" to /dev/null instead of stdout (Ah! So it was grep!
1527 * Made sure the "purge" target of nbd-server's postrm removes
1528 /etc/nbd-server. Since /etc/nbd-server is created in postinst, it is
1529 not part of any package or file, let alone it being a
1530 conffile. Therefore, I have to remove it manually in the postrm.

1541 nbd (1:1.2-4) unstable; urgency=low
1543 * Changed debian/rules file a bit so that this package should build the
1544 nbd-server on non-linux ports (currently only The
1545 Hurd). Unfortunately, I have to sum up each and every linux-port to
1546 achieve this. Have a look at #112325 to find out why. Since nbd-client
1547 needs support from the kernel, and since this is a linux-only thing,
1548 it makes no sense compiling nbd-client on other kernels. Hence, I
1550 * Created manpages for both nbd-client and nbd-server (Closes: #112049)
1551 * Now created an initscript for nbd-server too. Works the same way as
1552 the nbd-client initscript.

1563 nbd (1:1.2-2) unstable; urgency=low
1565 * Added debconf-configuration to install one nbd-client device. This
1566 should work for most installations.
1567 * Added information to /etc/nbd-client. See the file for details; it
1568 allows for multiple clients to be ran and killed at boot
1570 * Changed init.d-script for nbd-client (the previous changelog-entry
1571 fails to tell that the init.d-script is only for nbd-client too, BTW)
1572 to reflect new situation.
