-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jun 17 12:23:38 UTC 2020 - Thomas Spahni <vodoo@vakw.ch> - 25

- Upgrade to version 25

- New PID directory /run/ngircd/ instead of /var/run/ircd

- Suppressed outdated insserv

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jan 24 23:59:56 UTC 2018 - 9+suse@cirno.systems

- Do not restart on update
  There is no support for retaining state across restarts and a
  restart will cause service interruption, so it is better to
  handle this manually via zypper ps -s.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue May  9 10:47:31 UTC 2017 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Upgrade to version 24

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Feb 13 14:25:19 UTC 2016 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Upgrade to version 23

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jan 22 17:46:20 UTC 2015 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- In ngircd.conf disabled use of ident by default

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jan 22 15:04:44 UTC 2015 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Updated systemd service file for service invocation to make it
  more systemd compatible. Forking => simple

- Update of cipher list in ngircd.conf

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 19 13:23:00 UTC 2015 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Upgrade to version 22
  Match all list patterns case-insensitive: this affects the invite-,
  ban-, and except lists, as well as G-Lines an K-Lines.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Jun 22 17:13:58 UTC 2014 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Upgrade to release 21.1

- Differences to version 20.x:
  * Starting with ngIRCd 21, the ciphers used by SSL are configurable and
    default to HIGH:!aNULL:@STRENGTH (OpenSSL) or SECURE128 (GnuTLS).
    Previous version were using the OpenSSL or GnuTLS defaults, DEFAULT
    and NORMAL respectively.

* When adding GLINE's or KLINE's to ngIRCd 21 (or newer), all clients
    matching the new mask will be KILL'ed. This was not the case with 
    earlier versions that only added the mask but didn't kill already
    connected users.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Sep 10 09:42:30 UTC 2013 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Use openssl instead of gnutls

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Aug 23 20:46:17 UTC 2013 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Upgrade to bugfix release 20.3 (2013-08-23)
- Upstream changes:
  * Security: Fix a denial of service bug (server crash) which could happen
    when the configuration option "NoticeAuth" is enabled (which is NOT the
    default) and ngIRCd failed to send the "notice auth" messages to new
    clients connecting to the server (CVE-2013-5580).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Feb 15 16:24:23 UTC 2013 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Upgrade to bugfix release 20.2 (2013-02-15)
- Upstream changes:
  * Security: Fix a denial of service bug in the function handling KICK
    commands that could be used by arbitrary users to to crash the daemon
    (CVE-2013-1747).
  * WHO command: Use the currently "displayed hostname" (which can be cloaked!)
    for hostname matching, not the real one. In other words: don't display all 
    the cloaked users on a specific real hostname!
  * configure: The header file "netinet/in_systm.h" already is optional in
    ngIRCd, so don't require it in the configure script. Now ngIRCd can be
    built on Minix 3 again :-)
  * Return better "Connection not registered as server link" errors: Now ngIRCd
    returns a more specific error message for numeric ERR_NOTREGISTERED(451)   
    when a regular user tries to use a command that isn't allowed for users but
    for servers.
  * Don't report ERR_NEEDMOREPARAMS(461) when a MDOE command with more modes
    than nicknames is handled, as well as for channel limit and key changes 
    without specifying the limit or key parameters.
    This is how a lot (all?) other IRC servers behave, including ircd2.11,
    InspIRCd, and ircd-seven. And because of clients (tested with Textual and
    mIRC) sending bogus MODE commands like "MODE -ooo nick", end-users got the
    expected result as well as correct but misleading error messages ...
  * Correctly detect when SSL subsystem must be initialized and take
    outgoing connections (server links!) into account, too.
  * autogen.sh: Enforce serial test harness on GNU automake >=1.13. The
    new parallel test harness which is enabled by default starting with
    automake 1.13 isn't compatible with our test suite.
    And don't use "egrep -o", insetead use "sed", because it isn't portable
    and not available on OpenBSD, for example.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Jan 27 14:27:22 UTC 2013 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Fixed ngircd-start-pre to test for absolute paths of commands; 12.1 and 12.2 are different.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Jan 27 11:46:30 UTC 2013 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- New script ngircd-start-pre to be called by systemd
  Script sets up chroot environment when requested in
  the /etc/ngircd.conf file.

- ngircd.service changed to use ngircd-start-pre

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jan  3 13:45:41 UTC 2013 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Upgrade to bugfix release 20.1 (2013-01-02)

* Allow ERROR command on server and service links only, ignore them and
    add a penalty time on all other link types.
  * Enforced mode setting by IRC Operators: Only check the channel user
    modes of the initiator if he is joined to the channel and not an IRC
    operator enforcing modes (which requires the configuration option   
    "OperCanUseMode" to be enabled), because trying to check channel user
    modes of a non-member results in an assertion when running with debug
    code or could crash the daemon otherwise. This closes bug #147, thanks
    to James Kirwill <james.kirwill@bk.ru> for tracking this down!
  * Fix build system to cope with spaces in path names.
  * Code cleanups, mostly to fix build warnings on Cygwin.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Dec 19 11:51:56 UTC 2012 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Remove binary stripping

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec 17 15:02:56 UTC 2012 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Upgrade to upstream version 20
- Strip the executable for SLE_11
- Differences to version 19.x:
  Starting with ngIRCd 20, users can "cloak" their hostname only when the
  configuration variable "CloakHostModeX" (introduced in 19.2) is set.
  Otherwise, only IRC operators, other servers, and services are allowed to
  set mode +x. This prevents regular users from changing their hostmask to
  the name of the IRC server itself, which confused quite a few people ;-)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Dec  2 18:23:33 UTC 2012 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Update to version 20.rc2

- These are the upstream changes:
  ngIRCd 20~rc2 (2012-12-02)
  - Rework cloaked hostname handling and implement the "METADATA cloakhost"
    subcommand: Now ngIRCd uses two fields internally, one to store the
    "real" hostname and one to save the "cloaked" hostname. This allows
    "foreign servers" (aka "IRC services") to alter the real and cloaked
    hostnames of clients without problems, even when the user itself issues
    additional "MODE +x" and "MODE -x" commands.
  - RPL_UMODEIS: send correct target name, even on server links.
  - Update platformtest.sh to follow autoconf changes and only generate
    the "configure" script when it is missing.
  - Fix the test suite to correctly execute test scripts even when stdout
    is redirected.
  - Fix some compiler warnings on NetBSD and OpenBSD.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Nov 18 17:11:07 UTC 2012 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Upgrade to version 20.rc1

- These are the upstream changes:

- Update doc/Services.txt: describe the upcoming version of Anope 1.9.8,
    then including a protocol module for ngIRCd. And remove our own patches
    in ./contrib/Anope because they aren't supported any more ...
  - Implement new "METADATA" command which can be used by remote servers
    and IRC services to update client metadata like the client info text
    ("real name"), user name, and hostname, and use this command to
    configure an cloaked hostname (user mode "+x") on remote servers:
    This prevents "double cloaking" of hostnames and even cloaked
    hostnames are in sync on all servers supporting "METADATA" now.
  - Fix error message when trying to join non-predefined channels and the
    "PredefChannelsOnly" configuration option is set.
  - Implement new IRC "SVSNICK" command to allow remote servers (and IRC
    services) to change nicknames of already registered users. The SVSNICK
    command itself doesn't change the nickname, but it becomes forwarded
    to the server to which the user is connected to. And then this server
    initiates the real nickname changing using regular NICK commands.
    This allows to run mixed networks with old servers not supporting the
    SVSNICK command, because SVSNICK commands for nicknames on such servers
    are silently ignored and don't cause a desynchronization of the network.
  - Make server reconnect time a little bit more random, so that two
    servers trying to connect to each other asynchronously don't try this
    in exactly the same time periods and kick each other off ...
  - Don't accept connections for servers already being linked: there was a
    time frame that could result in one connection overwriting the other,
    e. g. the incoming connection overwriting the status of the outgoing
    one. And this could lead to all kind of weirdness (even crashes!) later
    on: now such incoming connections are dropped.
  - New configuration option "MaxListSize" to configure the maximum number
    of channels returned by a LIST command. The default is 100, as before.
  - Implement user mode "b", "block messages": when a user has set mode "b",
    all private messages and notices to this user are blocked if they don't
    originate from a registered user, an IRC Op, server or service. The
    originator gets an error numeric sent back in this case,
    ERR_NONONREG_MSG (486), which is used by UnrealIRCd, too. (Closes #144)
  - WHOIS: Not only show RPL_WHOISHOST_MSG to local IRC operators, but show
    it to all IRC operators in the network. And don't show it to anybody if
    the "more privacy" configuration option is enabled. (Closes #134)
  - Test suite: make expect scripts more verbose displaying dots for each
    reply of the server that it is waiting for.
  - WHOIS: Implement numeric RPL_WHOISMODES_MSG (379) and show user modes in
    the reply of the WHOIS command for the user himself or, if MorePrivacy
    isn't set, for request initiated by an IRC operator. (Closes #129)
  - Implement channel mode "V" (invite disallow): If the new channel mode
    "V" is set, the INVITE command becomes invalid and all clients get the
    new ERR_NOINVITE_MSG (518) reply. (Closes #143)
  - KICK-protect IRC services.
  - Implement channel mode "Q" and user mode "q": Both modes protect users
    from channel kicks: only IRC operators and servers can kick users having
    mode "q" or in channels with mode "Q". (Closes #141)
  - Debian: require "telnet" or "telnet-ssl" for building and enable
    CHARCONV in ngircd-full[-dbg] variants.
  - Send RPL_REHASHING (382) numeric if a REHASH command was accepted.
  - Fix spelling and variable names in some log messages.
  - Allow users to "cloak" their hostname only when the configuration
    variable "CloakHostModeX" (introduced in 19.2) is set. Otherwise, only
    IRC operators, other servers, and services are allowed to set the user
    mode "+x": this prevents regular users from changing their hostmask to
    the name of the IRC server itself, which confused quite a few people ;-)
    (Closes #133)
  - New configuration option "OperChanPAutoOp": If disabled, IRC operators
    don't become channel operators in persistent channels when joining.
    Enabled by default, which has been the behavior of ngIRCd up to this
    patch. (Closes #135)
  - Allow IRC operators to see secret (+s) channels in LIST command as long
    as the "MorePrivacy" configuration option isn't enabled in the
    configuration file. (Closes #136)
  - Enhance build system: Support new (>=1.12) and old (<=1.11) GNU automake
    versions, update checks for required and optional features, enable
    colored test output of automake (if available), rename configure.in to
    more modern configure.ac, include .mailmap and all build-system files in
    distribution archives and no longer require a GIT tree to detect the
    correct version string.
  - Update documentation: add doc/Contributing.txt and include version
    numbers in doc/Modes.txt.
  - Free all listen ports on initialization: now listen ports can be
    reconfigured on runtime using a configuration reload.
  - Initialize SSL when needed only, and disable SSL on errors.
  - Implement new (optional) IRC+ "CHARCONV" command to set a client
    character set that the server translates all messages to/from UTF-8.
    This feature requires the "libiconv" library and must be enabled using
    the new "--with-iconv" option of the ./configure script. See
    doc/Protocol.txt for details. (Closes #109)
  - Allow limited punctuation in usernames, for better PAM integration.
  - Correctly re-initialize signal handlers on RESTART commands.
  - Show a warning on startup if the configuration file is not a full path:
    ngIRCd is a long-running process and changes its working directory to
    "/" to not block mounted filesystems and the like when running as daemon
    ("not in the foreground"); therefore the path to the configuration file
    must be relative to "/" (or the chroot() directory), which basically is
    "not relative", to ensure that "kill -HUP" and the "REHASH" command work
    as expected later on. (Closes #127)
  - Make the "&SERVER" channel definable in a [Channel] configuration block,
    which enables server operators to overwrite the built-in topic and
    channel modes. (Closes #131)
  - Don't limit list size of "WHO #channel" commands, because it makes no
    sense to not return all the users in that channel, so I removed the
    check. But if there are more than MAX_RPL_WHO(25) replies, the client
    requesting the list will be "penalized" one second more, then 2 in
    total. (Closes #125)
  - Make ngIRCd buildable using the kqueue() IO interface on FreeBSD 4.x.
  - Fix the "NoticeAuth" configuration option when using SSL connections and
    enhance the message to show the hostname and IDENT reply of the client.
  - Introduce numeric RPL_HOSTHIDDEN_MSG (396): This numeric is sent to the
    client each time it changes its displayed hostname using "MODE +/-x",
    and if "CloakHost" is set right after the MOTD has been sent.
  - Fix USERHOST not displaying the correctly cloaked hostname.
  - Implement user mode "B" ("Bot flag"): it is settable and unsettable by
    every (non-restricted) client. This is how Unreal and InspIRCd do
    behave, and so do we :-)
  - Dynamically allocate memory for connection passwords: This a) saves
    memory for clients not using passwords at all and b) allows for
    "arbitrarily" long passwords.
  - Implement channel mode "M": Only the server, identified users and IRC
    operators are able to talk in such a channel.
  - Block nicknames that are reserved for services and are defined using the
    configuration variable "ServiceMask" in "Server" blocks; And this
    variable now can handle more than one mask separated by commas.
  - Now "make uninstall" removes the installed "ngircd.conf" file, if it is
    still equal to our "sample-ngircd.conf" file and therefore hasn't been
    modified by the user. If it has been modified, it isn't removed and a
    notice is displayed to the user. And "make install" now displays a
    message when no ngircd.conf file exists and the "sample-ngircd.conf"
    file will be installed as a starting point.
  - Add contrib/ngircd.service, a systemd service file for ngircd.
  - Implemented XOP channel user modes: "Half Op" ("+h", prefix "%") can set
    the channel modes +imntvIbek and kick all +v and normal users; "Admin"
    ("+a", prefix "&") can set channel modes +imntvIbekoRsz and kick all +o,
    +h, +v and normal users; and "Owner" ("+q", prefix "~") can set channel
    modes +imntvIbekoRsz and kick all +a, +o, +h, +v and normal users.
  - Implement hashed cloaked hostnames for both the "CloakHost" and
    "CloakHostModeX" configuration options: now the admin can use the new
    '%x' placeholder to insert a hashed version of the clients hostname,
    and the new configuration option "CloakHostSalt" defines the salt for
    the hash function. When "CloakHostSalt" is not set (the default), a
    random salt will be generated after each server restart. (Closes #133)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Tue Nov  6 10:39:16 UTC 2012 - vodoo@vakw.ch

- Update to 19.2:
  * New configuration option "CloakHostModeX" to configure the hostname
    that gets used for IRC clients which have user mode "+x" enabled.
    Up to now, the name of the IRC server itself has been used for this,
    which still is the default when "CloakHostModeX" isn't set.

* Add instructions for setting up Atheme IRC services.

* Implement support for IRC capability handling, the new "CAP" command,
    and capablity "multi-prefix" which allows both the NAME and WHO command
    handlers to return more than one "class prefix" to the client.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jun 15 16:59:41 UTC 2012 - vodoo@vakw.ch

  - Server links are allowed to use larger write buffers now (up
    to 50 KB).
  - Fix compressed server links (broken since 0.10.0).
  - Predefined Channel configuration now allows specification of
    channel key (mode k) and maximum user count (mode l).
  - When using epoll() IO interface, compile in the select()
    interface as well and fall back to it when epoll() isn't
    available on runtime.
  - New configure option "--without-select" to disable select()
    IO API (even when using epoll(), see above).
  - Added support for IO APIs "poll()" and "/dev/poll".
  - Reorganized internal handling of invite and ban lists.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

  - Allow PASS syntax defined in RFC 1459 for server links, too.
  - Enhanced ISUPPORT message (005 numeric).
  - New configuration option "PredefChannelsOnly": if set,
    clients can only join predefined channels.
  - Code cleanups: use "LogDebug(...)" instead of
    "Log(LOG_DEBUG, ...)", use "strcspn()", unsigned vs. signed,
    use "const", fix whitespaces, ...

-------------------------------------------------------------------
