Thu Oct 11 12:38:35 UTC 2018 - Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Update to new upstream release 16
* Explicitly mention our mailing-list in the README:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/bus1-devel
All dbus-broker releases are announced there, and the list is open
for any dbus and dbus-broker related discussions.
* Revert the removal of the --verbose switch of bus launcher. There
are existing users that pass this switch, and now suddenly fail
spawning dbus-broker. The switch is now a no-op and silently ignored.
* The global resource limits were reconsidered and aligned with the
values used by dbus-daemon(1) and current distributions. Furthermore,
the limits provided in the bus XML configuration are now interpreted
by the launcher and converted to the broker-internal accounting
scheme.

- Add patch feature-suse-refuse-manual-start-stop.patch as
dbus-broker is also (yet) not restartable without loosing
connections

- Update to new upstream release 15
* Fix dbus-broker-launch to retain CAP_AUDIT_WRITE in its ambient
capability set, so dbus-broker will get it as well.
* Be less verbose about unknown usernames in the XML config of
dbus-broker-launch.
* The broker now implements the org.freedesktop.DBus.Peer, and
org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties interfaces.
* The man-pages have been updated to reflect the current state of
dbus-broker and dbus-broker-launch.
* Matches are now indexed by all major fields, greatly improving
broadcast performance.
* The launcher now respects the `<user>NAME</user>' configuration and
correctly drops privileges of the broker and itself after startup.
* The `send_broadcast', `min_fds', and `max_fds' XML policy attributes
are now supported (as defined by dbus-daemon(1)).
* Configuration files are now watched for modifications by the
launcher. Any modification triggers a configuration reload. This
follows the behavior of dbus-daemon(1).
* The broker gained a `--machine-id' command-line switch to specify the
local machine-id to be served via the org.freedesktop.DBus.Peer
interface. The launcher uses libsystemd-daemon to provide it.
* The controller interface of dbus-broker has been renamed from
org.bus1.DBus.Launcher to org.bus1.DBus.Controller.
* The --verbose command-line switch was dropped from both the broker
and the launcher. Its behavior is now the default.
* Fix a startup dead-lock with systemd NSS plugins. This requires
setting the SYSTEMD_NSS_BYPASS_BUS environment variable, so
libnss_systemd.so will skip recursive bus-calls.
* Read /etc/{passwd,groups} early on from the launcher to
pre-initialize the nss-cache. This allows startup on properly
configured systems without ever calling into NSS. Furthermore, in
case this does not resolve all required usernames, the launcher will
loudly log any call into NSS, to better debug early dead-locks in bus
startup code.
Note that this new mechanic overrules /etc/nsswitch.conf for the
launcher. However, this is only made based on the assumption that
if an entry is present in /etc/{passwd,groups}, it better be a valid
entry. If an entry is not present, the launcher will still correctly
call into NSS.
* Building documentation is now optional. Use -Ddocs=true with meson
to build documentation. It is disabled by default.
* The compatibility launcher now namespaces transient systemd units
based on its own name on the scope-bus (i.e., the bus
dbus-broker-launch uses to ask systemd for activation of units). This
allows running private dbus-broker instances, while using transient
systemd-units on the scope-bus for activation. For instance, at-spi2
can use activated units that clash with the namespace of the session
or system bus.
* Several bug-fixes.
- Add build require docutils to build the manualk pages
- Add build require for package config libcap-ng

- Update to new upstream release 11
* The policy-type of the dbus-broker API has been simplified.
It is now reduced to a policy-batch indexed by uids, in
combination with a policy-batch indexed either by gid or
uid-range.
* The launcher now supports a `--config-file PATH` commandline
option to override the root configuration file, which is
still deduced based on the passed scope parameter.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb 6 00:37:19 UTC 2018 - jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 9
* AddListener() on org.bus1.DBus.Broker now supports UID ranges.
* dbus-broker.service unit is now ordered before basic.target.
* The launcher now uses instantiated systemd template units
when activating a service that has no associated systemd
service file.
* The launcher now supports configuration reloading.
* Activated units now inherit their user from the actual D-Bus
service, if provided.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Sep 10 23:30:34 UTC 2017 - jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 4
* Support for sending SELinux AVC violations to audit rather
than syslog.
* Units will now be activated via explicit calls to StartUnit()
rather than faking a ActivationRequest directed signal. This
allows to catch startup failures (or rejections) and allows
to reject all pending activation requests right away.
* The broker now logs policy violations to the system log.
- Add use-system-deps.diff
-------------------------------------------------------------------
