-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon May 30 13:00:24 UTC 2016 - fcrozat@suse.com
- Do not use systemd macros for geoclue2.service, they are not
designed for dbus systemd unit file [bsc#982216].
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Apr 13 09:27:42 UTC 2016 - idonmez@suse.com
- Update to GNOME 3.20 Fate#318572
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Mar 3 13:39:24 UTC 2016 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.4.3:
+ Fix a crash in the helper library.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Feb 27 17:43:18 UTC 2016 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.4.2:
+ Reliable desktop ID detection for xdg-app. This together with
latest gnome-shell and gnome-control-center, allows for
per-application geolocation access controls.

since Geoclue can automatically detect it.
+ Don't allow xdg-app application to become user-authorization
agents.
+ Correct introspection namespace version for libgeoclue.
+ Option to disable the backend build.
+ Demo: Provide reason to access location data.
+ Demo agent:
- Critical log message on failing to show notification.
- If app provides a reason string in it's desktop file, show
that to the user.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

- Enable GObject introspection (required by gnome-weather 3.19+):
+ Pass --enable-introspection to configure.
+ Add pkgconfig(gobject-introspection-1.0) BuildRequires.
+ Split typelib-1_0-Geoclue-2_0 subpackage.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Nov 24 02:08:50 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.4.0:
+ Add a convenience library to make interacting with Geoclue very
easy.
+ Put each D-Bus interface description in it's own file. Unified
interface file still provided for backwards compatibility.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov 5 21:32:00 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Correct geoclue2-permit-gnome-maps.patch to include system=false,
all services are supposed to have a system section. Fixes
(boo#953865).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Sep 28 15:35:11 UTC 2015 - mpluskal@suse.com
- Update to 2.3.0
* Add a network NMEA source, which together with this application:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/GeoclueShare allows you to use the
GPS of your Android device on your geoclue-enabled machine.
* Allow root to own the name on the bus, i-e run the service.
* Make use of compass device if available, through iio-proxy.
* Fix a hang on client starting twice.
* More helpful error on agent rejection.
* Improved documentation.
* Do not ship generated D-Bus service files in the tarball.
* Only allow the geoclue user and root to call methods on agents.
* Fix ignoring of valid location updates due to comparison of
stances in different units.
* Correctly handle two consecutive location updates with same
mestamp on them.
* Correctly handle late location update.
* Build system fixes:
+ Fix detection of gdbus-codegen tool.
+ Workaround an intltool issue.
- Update dependencies
- Make build more verbose
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Apr 11 21:00:40 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.2.0:
+ Report 'Speed' and 'Heading' on location updates.
+ Try to provide the most accurate location first.
+ Avoid a crash by ensuring requested max accuracy is within
bounds.
+ Fix GPS coordinates parsing.
+ Fix GeoIP on machines without WiFi hardware.
+ Gracefully handle inexistent agent.
+ Stop sources whose accuracy level becomes higher, rather than
lower, than the requested level.
+ Keep old location object alive on D-Bus for a bit longer to
ensure applications are not accessing it still after it is
destroyed.
+ Don't enable the modem. Seems at least GNOME takes care of
modem enabling for us and besides this shouldn't be done by
geoclue anyway (fdo#85040).
+ Wait for modem to be enabled before checking availability of
location capabilities and using them. This is particularly
important for pin-enabled modems.
+ Ignore redundant GPS location updates.
+ Fix some potential crashes.
+ Some improvements to output of where-am-i demo application.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Feb 12 20:11:11 UTC 2015 - mpluskal@suse.com
- Cleanup spec file with spec-cleaner
- Update dependencies
- Do not try to remove .la files
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Oct 4 09:04:06 UTC 2014 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.1.10:
+ Disallow application if disabled explicitly in the
configuration.
+ Make it easy to add alternative modem source(s), e.g
ofono-based.
+ Map:
- country-level accuracy to city-level since no source provides
country-level accuracy.
- neighborhood-level accuracy to city-level in WiFi source
(only) so applications requesting neighborhood-level accuracy
still get a location even if there is no modem available.
+ Fixes to WiFi source.
+ For easier debugging, add:
- more debug prints.
- commandline options to where-am-i demo application to specify
timeout and requested accuracy level.
+ Fix a potential build failure.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Aug 7 19:41:32 UTC 2014 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.1.9:
+ Move from NetworkManager to direct use of wpa_supplicant to
retreive WiFI data, for greater portability.
+ Port from opencellid.org to Mozilla Location Service for
3G-geolocation.
+ Network data submission
- Explicit option in config to enable submission.
- Commandline options to enable network data submission and set
nickname.
- Submit 3G data.
- Submit under 'geoclue' nick by default.
+ Fix a few crashes.
+ Drop now redundant workaround for pure geoip queries.
+ Ability to mark an app as system component in the config so
that:
- Agent can't decide its accuracy level nor agent is asked to
authorize it. This mean automatic timezone in GNOME will
continue working even if you disable geolocation.
- App is not taken into account for 'InUse' property. That
means you will no longer have to see location crosshair in
gnome-shell's topbar forever just because you have automatic
timezone enabled.
+ Exit demo app if geoclue deactivates it.
+ Improved debug log.
+ Many other internal changes and minor improvements.
- Changes from version 2.1.8:
+ Switch to Mozilla Location Service for geoip as well.
+ Allow specifying nickname to submit network data with.
+ Report actual available accuracy level and keep it up2date.
+ Add 'Active' property to indicate client state.
+ Expose altitude info (if known).
+ Timeout on inactivity, rather than no clients.
+ Automatically:
- stop the client if max accuracy level is set to 0.
- start the client if max accuracy level is set to non-0 and it
was automatically stopped.
+ Don't disable modem after using it. Disabling the modem,
disables it for everyone so if there was an active connection
going on through the modem, geoclue will cause it to
disconnect. While we need to have some centralized means to
enable/disable modem and ideally geoclue shouldn't do any
enabling/disabling of modems at all, for now lets just only
enable the modem.
+ Fix issue of missed location updates.
+ Whitelist correct ID for gnome-settings-daemon in default
config.
+ Replace '--disable-wifi-source' configure option with
'--disable-network-manager'. i-e now you disable usage of
NetworkManger explicitly rather than wifi source, which is now
always built and enabled.
+ Drop now redundant geoip server.
+ Don't distribute .desktop.in files for demos.
+ Plug some leaks.
+ More debug log.
+ Other minor fixes.
- Changes from version 2.1.7:
+ 'InUse' property now only affected by active clients. This
fixes the issue of gnome-shell incorrectly showing 'geolocation
in use' icon.
+ Move DBus interface files to their canonical location:
/usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/.
+ Drop redundant check for the C++ compiler in configure script.
+ Demo agent now prints 'geolocation in use' info.
- Drop pkgconfig(libnm-glib) and pkgconfig(libxml-2.0)
BuildRequires: no longer needed.
- Add geoclue2-permit-gnome-maps.patch: Allow gnome-maps to access
geoclue.
- Also drop the invalid rpmlintrc variant geoclue2.rpmlintrc.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Apr 5 14:11:08 UTC 2014 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Actually drop the rpmlintrc: the dbus service has been
authorized.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Apr 4 19:16:19 UTC 2014 - adrian@suse.de
- use addFilter instead of setBadness
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Mar 13 20:52:19 UTC 2014 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.1.6:
+ Correct binary path is demo's desktop file.
+ Move demo apps from /usr/share to /usr/libexec.
- Changes from version 2.1.5:
+ Add a NULL check to fix a crasher.
+ Setup D-Bus policy to be able to access NetworManager API.
+ Expected agent object path now static. This breaks agent
interface but it was needed to fix the D-Bus policy.
+ Fix issue of us giving every connection access to every
property on the system bus.
- Changes from version 2.1.4:
+ Don't depend on unreleased libnm-glib.
- No longer use sed to lower libnm-glib requirement, fixed
upstream.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Feb 23 06:34:19 UTC 2014 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Add pkgconfig(systemd) BuildRequires and add relevant
systemdmacros to pre/post/preun/postun.
- Create softlink /usr/sbin/rcgeoclue to /usr/sbin/service.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Feb 21 11:59:35 UTC 2014 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.1.3:
+ Agents can now dictate maximum accuracy level allowed for all
clients through a D-Bus property. The next version of
gnome-shell will make use of that and provide an option to
enable/disable geolocation in topbar menu.
+ Add D-Bus property to specify available accuracy level. For now
we just hardcode it to report that we can provide exact
accuracy.
+ Give agents time to register themselves on startup before
processing client requests.
+ Move configuration file under geoclue subdir so that in future
we can easily add more configuration files if needed.
+ Fixes to build.
+ Some internal clean-ups.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb 4 18:44:50 UTC 2014 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.1.2:
+ Fix some crashing bugs.
+ Ignore WiFis with '_nomap' suffix.
+ Configure options for disabling WiFi, 3G and GPS modem sources.
+ Avoid spaming the network resources for ignorable changes to
network setup.
+ Add some required files to distribution that we forgot in last
release.
- Changes from version 2.1.1:
+ 3GPP-based geolocation source.
+ Uses ModemManager to get cell tower info from 3GPP modem and
uses opencellid.org's public API to translate that into a
location.
+ GPS modem-based geolocation source: If your 3GPP modem has a
GPS, geoclue can now make use of it.
+ WiFi-based geolocation source.
+ Uses Mozilla Location Service to find location based on nearby
WiFi networks.
+ Refresh location on changes in WiFi networks.
+ Option in configuration file to make geoclue use Google Maps
Geolocation API rather than Mozilla Location Service.
+ Option in configuration file to enable submission of wifi data
to Mozilla Location Service. If this option is enabled, the
data is submitted each time geoclue gets a GPS lock. That
means, its not completely autonomous and data is only
submitted if an application, e.g gnome-maps requests current
location with exact accuracy.
+ API for clients to specify what level of geolocation accuracy
they need, e.g city-level, street-level or exact etc.
+ API to check if geolocation service is in use. Next version of
gnome-shell will make use of that to show an icon in the panel
to indicate to user that their location is being accessed.
+ Application authorization agent.
+ Make agent completely optional. We will revert this once we
have a reliable mechanism to identify applications.
+ Identify agent and client applications by their desktop IDs
rather than paths of their binaries.
+ Ability for agents to dictate the accuracy level allowed for
clients.
+ Maintain a whitelist of clients in configuration that do not
need agent authorization.
+ Avoid redundant queries to web services.
+ Install demo applications and provide a desktop file for them.
+ Many more internal fixes and clean-ups.
- Add pkgconfig(libnm-glib), pkgconfig(mm-glib) and
pkgconfig(libxml-2.0) BuildRequires: new dependencies.
- Lower NetworkManager dependency to 0.9.8 in configure.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Jan 19 10:44:30 UTC 2014 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.1.0:
+ Application authentication agents support:
- API for agents to register themselves.
- API that agents need to implement.
- Configure option to enable requirement of authorization from
agent. Until there is at least one agent out there, this
requirement is disabled by default.
- A demo agent.
- Option in ${sysconfdir}/geoclue.conf containing whitelist of
all our agents.
+ Don't use proxy. Seems proxy settings are per-user and system
users (which geoclue is supposed to run as) do not have access
to them.
+ Add support for bus-activation via systemd service unit.
+ Add mandatory 'DesktopId' property to Client interface.
+ Use HTTPS to connect to geoip.fedoraproject.org. The actual
resource is behind HTTPS so using HTTP leads to redirections
and thefore redundant TCP packets.
+ Fixes to build system.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Oct 7 18:16:11 UTC 2013 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Create and package %{_localstatedir}/lib/%{dbus_user} (the dbus
user's home directory).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Sep 24 17:27:49 UTC 2013 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.0.0:
+ Generate docs for D-Bus interface.
+ Fix build against Automake 1.13.
+ Two minor fixes/cleanups.
- Changes from version 1.99.4:
+ Correct check for whether db needs update in geoip-update.
+ Fix geoip-update by direct usage of libsoup for HTTP GET.
+ Don't inhibit compiler warnings in build.
+ Fix various potential crashers.
+ Take 'DistanceThreshold' property into account.
+ Watch for and signal out location changes.
+ Add configure option to specify service user.
+ Add documentation comments to D-Bus interface XML.
+ Fix various compiler warnings.
+ Switch to Fedora's geoip server until we've our server setup.
+ Minor fixes to pkgconfig file.
+ Setup a glib log domain.
+ Some optimizations.
+ More debug logging.
- Drop geoclue2-no-root.patch: fixed upstream.
- Drop libtool BuildRequires and call to autoreconf, as we do no
longer carry any patch requiring to bootstrap.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Sep 15 10:58:11 UTC 2013 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Provide dbus(org.freedesktop.GeoClue2) instead of dbus(GeoClue2),
as this is much closer to reality.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Sep 11 14:06:00 UTC 2013 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Re-enable the D-Bus service, as the services have been white-
listed for Factory.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Sep 10 08:41:47 UTC 2013 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Add COPYING to the package as %doc.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Sep 9 08:58:12 UTC 2013 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Do not package the D-Bus service for now. This makes the package
'broken', but allows us to build against the D-Bus interface and
not block inclusion of other packages any furhter (bnc#838360).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Sep 3 20:37:16 UTC 2013 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Update to version 1.99.3:
+ All D-Bus prop names capitalized as per general conventions.
+ Expose D-Bus specification XML file in pkg-config file.
+ Fix some potential crashes in error handling code.
+ Remove unused build-time yelp dependency.
+ Correct the libsoup dependency in pkg-config (although it
doesn't affect any applications at the moment).
+ Fix some compiler warnings.
- Changes from version 1.99.2:
+ Drop client-side library.
+ Add COPYING file.
+ Install geoip-lookup with make install. This makes life easier
for binary distributions that can then ship geoip-lookup in a
package.
+ Distribute server documentation.
+ Distribute & install interface XML file.
+ Add/update forgotten copyright headers.
- Changes from version 1.99.1:
+ Move to system D-Bus.
+ Import geoip code from geocode-glib.
+ Add option to automatically exit on inactivity. By default it:
- Runs indefinitely when launched manually.
- Exits after 5 seconds of inactivity when (auto)launched by
D-Bus.
+ Relicense from LGPLv2+ to GPLv2+.
+ Some build/installation related fixes.
+ Correctly version pkg-config file.
+ Fix crash on error.
+ Add --version cmdline option.
- Changes from version 1.99.0:
+ Bump the version number.

the client-side library was dropped with version 1.99.2.
- Add geoclue2-no-root.patch: Add configure option to specify
service user.
- Add call to autoreconf in build phase, as above patch touches
the buildsystem.
- Define dbus_user: srvGeoClue.
- Pass --with-dbus-service-user=%{dbus_user} to configure.
- Create %dbus_user during pre phase if the user does not yet
exist.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Aug 5 20:51:34 UTC 2013 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Add ldconfig call to post/postun.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Aug 5 19:18:52 UTC 2013 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Initial package, version 0.0.1.
