- Previous versions of INN had an optimization for handling XHDR
Newsgroups that used the Xref header from overview. While this does
make the command much faster, it doesn't produce accurate results and
breaks the NNTP protocol, so this optimization has been removed.
- Fixed a bug in innd that allowed it to accept articles with duplicated
headers if the header occurred an odd number of times. Modified the
programs for rebuilding overview to use the last Xref header if there
are multiple ones to avoid problems with spools that contain such
invalid articles.
- Fixed yet another problem with verifying that a user has permissions
to approve posts to a moderated group. Thanks, Jens Schlegel.
- Increase the send and receive buffer on the Unix domain socket used by
ctlinnd. This should allow longer replies (particularly for innstat)
on platforms with very low default Unix domain socket buffer sizes.
- rnews's handling of articles with nul characters, NNTP errors, header
problems, and deferrals has been significantly improved.
- Thomas Parmelan added support to send-uucp for specifying the funnel
or exploder site to flush for feeds managed through one and fixed a
problem with picking up old stranded work files.
- INN is now licensed under a less restrictive license (about as
minimally restrictive as possible shy of public domain), and the
clause similar to the old BSD advertising clause has been dropped.
- make install and make update now always install the newly built
binaries, rather than only installing them if the modification times
are newer. This is the behavior that people expect. make install now
also automatically builds a new (empty) history database if one
doesn't already exist.
- The embedded Tcl filter code has been disabled (and will be removed
entirely in the next major release of INN). It hasn't worked for some
time and causes innd crashes if compiled in (even if not used). If
someone wants to step forward and maintain it, I recommend starting
from scratch and emulating the Perl and Python filters.
- ctlinnd should now successfully handle messages from INN up to the
maximum allowable packet size in the protocol, fixing problems sites
with many active peers were having with innstat output.
- Overview generation has been fixed in both makehistory and innd to
follow the rules in the latest NNTP draft rather than just replacing
special characters with spaces. This means that the unfolding of
folded header lines will not introduce additional, incorrect
whitespace in the overview data.
- nnrpd now uniformly responds with a 480 or 502 status code to attempts
to read a newsgroup to which the user does not have access, depending
on whether the user has authenticated. Previously, it returned a 411
status code, claiming the group didn't exist, which confuses the
reactive authentication capability of news readers.
- If a user is not authorized to approve articles (using the A access
control in readers.conf), articles that include Approved headers will
be rejected even if posted to unmoderated groups. Some other site may
consider that group to be moderated.
- The configuration parser used for readers.conf and others now
correctly handles "#" inside quoted strings and is more robust against
unmatched double quotes.
- Messages mailed to moderators had two spaces after the colons in the
headers, rather than one. This bug has been fixed.
- A bug that could cause heap corruption and random crashes in innd if
INN were compiled with Python support has been fixed.
- Some problems with innd's tracking of article size and enforcement of
the configured maximum article size have been fixed.
- pgpverify will now correctly verify signatures generated by GnuPG and
better supports GnuPG as the PGP implementation.
- INN's code should now be more 64-bit clean in its handling of size_t,
pointer differences, and casting of pointers, correcting problems that
showed up on 64-bit platforms like AMD64.
- Improved the error reporting in the history database code, in inews,
in controlchan, and in expire.
- Many other more minor bug fixes, optimization improvements, and
documentation fixes.

And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.

- builtin IPv6 support
- new configuration parser
- completely rewriten "send-uucp" which replaces "sendbatch"

the RCD_SCRIPTS rc.d script(s) to the PLIST.
This GENERATE_PLIST idea is part of Greg A. Woods'
PR #22954.
This helps when the RC_SCRIPTS are installed to
a different ${RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR}. (Later,
the default RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR will be changed
to be more clear that they are the examples.)
These patches also remove the etc/rc.d/ scripts from PLISTs
(of packages that use RCD_SCRIPTS). (This also removes
now unused references from openssh* makefiles. Note that
qmail package has not been changed yet.)
I have been doing automatic PLIST registration for RC_SCRIPTS
for over a year. Not all of these packages have been tested,
but many have been tested and used.
Somethings maybe to do:
- a few packages still manually install the rc.d scripts to
hard-coded etc/rc.d. These need to be fixed.
- maybe remove from mk/${OPSYS}.pkg.dist mtree specifications too.

Install header files for other packages (in particular, newsx).
Bump PKGREVISION.

* Use gcc/buildlink2.mk instead of Makefile.gcc.
* Use the functionality on bsd.pkg.install.mk to generate INSTALL/DEINSTALL
scripts that match the functionality of the custom ones we're removing,
and handle the rc.d script automatically.
* Name the full paths of the binaries that are installed setuid.

Remove `-p' from mkdir arguments, it is already part of ${MKDIR}.
While here substitute a couple of ${PREFIX} by `%D' in
`@exec ${MKDIR} ...' lines and add a couple of missing `%D' in such lines too!

rmdir -> ${RMDIR}
rm -> ${RM} (${RM} added to PLIST_SUBST)
chmod -> ${CHMOD}
