apt-cacher-ng (0.8.0) GOOD-ENOUGH; urgency=low

apt-cacher-ng (0.8.0rc4) BETA; urgency=low
* Using eventfd only on Linux
* Portability fixes for kFreeBSD and Windows (Cygwin)
* For static generated content respones, make sure to send the EOF chunk
before closing connection (Debian Bug #762969)
* Maintenance page related:
+ Cosmetic fixes
+ Fix enforced download on aggregated repos without backend spec (now
really considering the download URL even from inconsistent header files)
+ Added proper reconstruction of URL for enforced downloads relatively
to the associated .diff/Index file
+ Fixed some undefined behavior in volatile file refreshing, improved some
"optimistic" code
* Reenabled use of LTO (opt-out now with NOLTO=1 flag)

-- Eduard Bloch <blade@debian.org> Fri, 03 Oct 2014 23:55:02 +0200

-- Eduard Bloch <blade@debian.org> Sat, 20 Sep 2014 12:14:26 +0200
apt-cacher-ng (0.8.0rc1) BETA; urgency=low
* Systemd changes: sd_notify integration if libsystemd-daemon is available.
Service file now can act more precisely if Type is set to notify. Minor
tmpfiles config tuning to survive bad permission changes, obsoleting the
ExecStartPre command.
* Alternative to download thread wake via pipe with eventfd on Linux systems
(needs less file descriptors)
* Config file lookup code change to found .default files scattered between
config and support-data folders
* Fix false positive of the bad-auth-page-redirection detector, triggering
on multiple redirects with some HTML content (Sourceforge scheme). Also
allowed ?&= to be sent unencoded since some server's don't decode the
escaped version correctly.
* Keep some information in cached headers while reseting the file state
(needed to retrive original URL for maintenance tasks)
* Rereading disk information in advanced file checks (maintenance), cache
cannot be trusted and keeping it fresh is not worth the efforts
* Fixed HTTP redirection with backend mode
* Maintenance download code now prefers the original path resolved by
backend consideration if that option looks more likely
* Internal refactoring WRT download job management
* Fixed Base64 encoding to work correctly with non-ascii characters (still
not recommended, better use URL encoding in password settings!)
-- Eduard Bloch <blade@debian.org> Sat, 20 Sep 2014 10:51:05 +0200
apt-cacher-ng (0.8.0~pre3) BETA; urgency=low

the cache in its original version but the pdiff patches are there. The
guessed best version of the base file is fetched automatically.
* Internal refactoring, replacement of GCC specific atomic operations in
debug code
* FIX: potential bottleneck (serialization of connect operations because of
too big critical section)
* FIX: SSL_connect now running on non-blocking file handle with timeout,
hopefully avoiding the sometimes happening freezing for hours
* Database update
-- Eduard Bloch <blade@debian.org> Tue, 09 Sep 2014 22:52:32 +0200

* FIX: premature release of internal file descriptors sometimes causing
pointless reconnects (thanks to Kirill Timofeev)
* FIX: rare case of premature abortion of a chunked transfer if the source
deliveres data to slowly
* Added a trick to allow silent handling of arbitrary range requests in a
more appropriate way (returning 206) within a limited defined period
(configured through MaxInresponsiveDlSize variable; Debian bug #744727)
* Stopped using encoded URL strings in the internal processing (pointless
code compilications)
* Added support for more formats of the Location: URL in redirects
* Refactoring of old file item maintaining code
* Partial workaround for transparent redirects to WiFi auth sites etc.
-- Eduard Bloch <blade@debian.org> Sat, 30 Aug 2014 21:33:14 -0700

to add custom configuration without interference with future updates of
default settings

side includes, with smooth access to configuration options and less
computational overhead

Displaying user info page rather than admin page if the admin page site
name was not configured in the config at all
* On expiration code, review and partial rewrite:
+ better readability and performance
+ less memory usage
+ contents checking for Debian Installer image indexes, no more carte
blanche for d-i files unless one adds them manually to the whitelist
+ better checking file sizes inconsistencies without checksumming
* Review and refactoring of repository management:
+ better readability
+ now using better tailored containers
+ stricter size format parsing on certain places
+ fixed removal checkboxes not appearing sometimes
* Helper rules to install database generation scripts, see Debian package
for details
* If OpenSSL is available, use libcrypto implementations of SHA1 and MD5
hashing (much faster on modern CPUs)
* Added data download throttling (AKA speed/rate limiting)
* Additional care about never truncating files while they might be still
open in the maintenance tasks
* Rudimentary handling of SIGBUS; only user notification with guessed
trouble source (mmap'ed file) in error log and gracefull exit
* If OpenSSL is available, use libcrypto implementation of SHA1 and MD5
hashing (much faster on modern CPUs)

* FIX: with connection caching, connections in timeout state were
erroneously reported as download problems although recovery from this
state was possible and expected by related code (Debian bug#717832)
* FIX: regressions in 0.7.14: download threads not terminated ASAP when
the client has gone (not before remote connection times out); local file
serving returned empty body

error messages, Debian bug #672801 second part)
