2002-08-04enable generation of message-ID and use of msg-id-cache.jschauma1-2/+3

after consulting with Todd. Any volunteers for any of these packages?
2002-07-19`@unexec ${RMDIR}' needs the %D prefix. Doh.mycroft1-2/+2
2002-07-08Upgrade to 6.6.4, which does not depend on an external inews program anymore.kim17-194/+164
This should avoid any vulnerability issues with INN. NOTE: The text files from lib/nn can now be found in share/nn instead.
2002-07-06Update "inn" package to version 2.3.3. Changes since version 2.3.2:tron4-28/+19
- pgpverify now supports using GnuPG to check signatures (rather than PGP) without the pgpgpg wrapper. GnuPG can check both old-style RSA signatures and new OpenPGP signatures and is recommended over PGP 2.6. If you have GnuPG installed, pgpverify will use it rather than PGP, which means that you may have to create a new key ring for GnuPG to use to verify signatures if you were previously using PGP. - An item that was noted in NEWS below but was inadvertently left out of nnrpd has actually been added this time: users can no longer post articles containing Approved: headers to moderated groups by default; they must be specifically given that permission with the access: parameter in readers.conf. See the man page for more details. - Two bugs in repacking overview index files and a reliability bug with writing overview data were all fixed in the tradindexed overview method, hopefully making it somewhat more reliable, particularly for makehistory. - If rc.news.local exists in the INN binary directory, it will be run with the start or stop argument whenever rc.news is run. This is available as a hook for local startup and shutdown code. - The default history table hash sizes were increased because a too-small value can cause serious performance problems (whereas a too-large hash just wastes a bit of disk space). - The sample control.ctl file has been extensively updated. - Wildmat exclusions (@ and !) should now work properly in storage.conf newsgroup patterns. - The implementation of the -w flag for expireover was fixed; previously, the value given to -w to change expireover's notion of the current time was scaled by too much. - Various other more minor bug fixes, standards compliance fixes, and documentation improvements.

2002-06-26Substitute a couple of `mkdir' by `${MKDIR}'.seb3-7/+7
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!

2002-06-16Initial import of Leafnode 1.9.22 into the NetBSD packages collectioncjep8-0/+226
as news/leafnode. Leafnode is a USENET software package designed for small sites, with a few tens of readers and only a slow link to the net. The work in this package is based on that of Ingolf Steinbach in PR#13830. wiz@ made some suggestions as well. Thanks to both of them.

2002-05-13Initial import of cg.wiz4-0/+31
cg is a semi-automatic newsgroup binary downloader. It assembles parts based on subject headers and then offers them in an editor for the user to choose which files he really wants. It supports decoding data in the following formats: uuencode (both single- and multi-posting binaries) MIME (multipart/mixed, message/partial; base64, quoted printable, x-uuencode) yEnc

Explicitly tell the user to use the discovered GNU make. * bugfix: CPP does not define build symbols which are needed by scripts/genextern.sh as opposed to cc -E. Always check for cc -E at ./configure time * new: NEWS file * change: modify INSTALL so even the pentagon can understand nntpcache builds with GNUMake * change: modify INSTALL to reflect new mailinglist details * bugfix: extensive three pass automake hackery to force regeneration of .ext's at the correct time and in the correct order * bugfix: sometimes a HEAD followed by a BODY when neither was previously cached resulted additional header characters in the body. Triggered by Pine. * compat: don't use creeping bsd featureisms (warn,<err.h>) in libproff

2001-12-01Update to 0.9.7.3mjl3-32/+32
Bug fixes include: * Removed code that unpacks "shell archives" as it causes a serious security hole. * Even when using read_active, slrn would enter all subscribed groups. * force_authentication was ignored when re-connecting. * In rare cases, the need to send authentication data was not recognized. * Interpret "news:" URLs enclosed in angle brackets correctly. * Scorefiles get "include"d only once (no more loops). * Unsubscribed groups are no longer moved to the bottom of the newsrc file. * Multiple '%s' in (non_)Xbrowser are handled correctly (fixes segfault). Minor UI changes: * Tagging ('*') an article marks it as unread. * The new default of 'reject_long_lines' is 2. * When confirm_actions is set, catching up a group requires confirmation. * Complain if user specifies a nonexistant config file on the command line. * Made new_subject_breaks_threads a bitmapped value (see manual for details) On Unix, gettext is used to translate messages. Currently, the following translations are available: - da.po (Danish; Byrial Jensen) - de.po (German; Jens Wahnes) - it.po (Italian; Emmanuele Bassi) - nl.po (Dutch; Jelmer Vernooij) - pl.po (Polish; Jarek Baczynski / Arkadiusz Sochala) - ru.po (Russian; Andy Shevchenko) The new function "view_scores" (bound to 'v' in article mode) shows you which scorefile entries matched the current article. Assigning names to your entries (see score.txt for details) will make this even more useful. The new intrinsic functions "register_hook" and "unregister_hook" allow the definition of multiple functions for most hooks. An autosave copy of the newsrc file is created whenever you leave a group. This can be turned off with no_autosave. Scoring on "Bytes:" (by integer value, not regexp) is possible. In header_display_format, you can use '%b' to display the number of bytes. This is available when reading overview data only (e.g. _not_ in slrnpull)! In *_display_format and *_status_line, the additional modifier '*' can be used to center justify text in a field of a given width. slrn accepts 8bit characters in newsgroup names. Updated cleanscore, see contrib/NEWS.cleanscore The code that allows running slrnpull as an unpriviledged user can now be turned on by passing --enable-setgid-code to configure. It no longer makes outgoing postings group writeable. The bottom line now has its own color object ("message"). New intrinsic functions get_fg_color and get_bg_color that return the current color of an object. In the readline keymap, the new functions "delbol" (^U) and "delbow" (^W) will delete to the beginning of the line or the word, respectively. In selection lists (e.g. used by color.sl), pressing a letter takes you to the next (or previous, if shift was held down) entry that starts with it. ew descriptors in header_status_line: %h, %l and %k now stand for the number of high / low scoring / killed articles, respectively. New intrinsic functions read_mini_variable (tab completes variable names) and read_mini_integer. See macros/varset.sl for an example (easy interactive setting of variables at runtime).
2001-11-29Get rid of manually adding "nbX" to PKGNAME when a pkg was changed inhubertf3-6/+7
pkgsrc. Instead, a new variable PKGREVISION is invented that can get bumped independent of DISTNAME and PKGNAME. Example #1: DISTNAME= foo-X.Y PKGREVISION= Z => PKGNAME= foo-X.YnbZ Example #2: DISTNAME= barthing-X.Y PKGNAME= bar-X.Y PKGREVISION= Z => PKGNAME= bar=X.YnbZ (!) On subsequent changes, only PKGREVISION needs to be bumped, no more risk of getting DISTNAME changed accidentally.
2001-10-31Move pkg/ files into package's toplevel directoryzuntum36-27/+27
2001-10-24I am a triple idiot. The only relevant variable that x11.buildlink.mkjlam1-2/+2
redefines about which buildlink.mk files would care is BUILDLINK_X11_DIR, which points to the location of the X11R6 hierarchy used during building. If x11.buildlink.mk isn't included, then BUILDLINK_X11_DIR defaults to ${X11BASE} (set in bsd.pkg.mk), so its value is always safe to use. Remove the ifdefs surrounding the use of BUILDLINK_X11_DIR in tk/buildlink.mk and revert changes to move x11.buildlink.mk before the other buildlink.mk files.
2001-10-23x11.buildlink.mk needs to be included before any buildlink.mk files thatjlam1-2/+2
use X11_BUILDLINK_MK as a test value. Generally just reordering the inclusions so that x11.buildlink.mk comes before the other buildlink.mk files will make everthing work.

foo-* to foo-[0-9]*. This is to cause the dependencies to match only the packages whose base package name is "foo", and not those named "foo-bar". A concrete example is p5-Net-* matching p5-Net-DNS as well as p5-Net. Also change dependency examples in Packages.txt to reflect this.
