File vnstat.changes of Package vnstat
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb 21 14:19:25 UTC 2017 - liedke@rz.uni-mannheim.de
- Update to 1.17:
* Fix: --importdb was creating invalid databases since version
1.15
* Fix: console output was being buffered which resulted in lack
of output in at least systemd log
* Add cross-compilation detection and improve install-data-hook
to not assume that the binaries can be executed in the host
system
- Update to 1.16:
* Fix: traffic rate calculation, SI decimal prefixes were shown
but calculation was done for IEC binary prefixes
* Add option for configure to disable image output support even
if required library is available, improve library detection
* Add selection between SI decimal prefixes (kbit/s...) (default)
and IEC binary prefixes (Kibit/s...) for traffic rate using
RateUnitMode keyword in configuration file
* Improve database handling resilience
* Inherit database file ownership from database directory if
UpdateFileOwner configuration option is enabled (default:
enabled) when adding new interfaces for monitoring as root.
This solves database file ownership mismatches when the daemon
is started as a non-root user and an interface gets added for
monitoring with a sudo command as root
* Improve user guidance in error situations related to the
configured default interface
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Mar 5 13:34:34 UTC 2016 - sor.alexei@meowr.ru
- Update to 1.15:
* Fix: XML output had extra commas, broken since previous version.
* Fix: unintended shared pointer modification in mosecs()
sometimes resulted in wrong month name to be shown for the
current month.
* Fix possible buffer overflow in /proc/net/dev parsing, requires
corrupted content in /proc/net/dev or use of address sanitiser.
* Use ANSI escape codes in -l and -tr modes for cursor location
manipulation instead of printing backspaces, hide cursor while
output is active.
* Improve database import robustness.
* Improve support for Asian UTF-8 date strings.
* Replace hand written Makefiles with autotools.
* Add --alwaysadd parameter to daemon for allowing automatic
addition of interfaces even if the database directory was
populated during startup.

necessary.
* Update ownership of database, log and pid files if needed
during daemon startup if started as root and configured to
change process user and group.

* Dynamic unit selection in hourly output instead of being fixed
to KiB.
* New options in image output (vnstati):
+ -nl / --nolegend for hiding the rx/tx legend;

section.
* Add legend to hourly output image.
* Add option for content alignment and page background colour to
vnstat.cgi.
* Document keyword value ranges in configuration file man page.
* Import Makefile improvements from OpenBSD.

config, default fallback value MaxBandwidth changed from 100 to
1000.
* JSON output (--json), vnstat-json.cgi and vnstat-json.php
examples provided in the 'examples' directory
* Drop support for over 10 year old database formats
(versions 1.0 - 1.2).
* Fix: JSON output syntax during first day of newly created
databases.
* Fix: field padding when using UTF-8 locale.
* Add optional mode parameter to --json and --xml for limiting
the output to only selected information.

crash the daemon
* Fix: Daemon database cache could remain empty after a -HUP signal

* Import GNU/kFreeBSD support from Debian
(#608963, patch by Mats Erik Andersson)
