dbus 1.8.12-1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

dbus (1.8.12-1ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    - Install binaries into / rather than /usr:
      + debian/rules: Set --exec-prefix=/
      + debian/dbus.install, debian/dbus-x11.install: Install from /bin
    - Use upstart to start:
      + Add debian/dbus.upstart and dbus.user-session.upstart
      + debian/dbus.postinst: Use upstart call instead of invoking the init.d
        script for checking if we are already running.
      + debian/control: versioned dependency on netbase that emits the new
        deconfiguring-networking event used in upstart script.
    - 20_system_conf_limit.patch: Increase max_match_rules_per_connection for
      the system bus to 5000 (LP #454093)
    - 81-session.conf-timeout.patch: Raise the service startup timeout from 25
      to 60 seconds. It may be too short on the live CD with slow machines.
    - debian/dbus.user-session.upstart, debian/rules: Communicate session bus
      to Upstart Session Init to avoid potential out-of-memory scenario
      triggered by Upstart clients that do not run main loops. Store the
      session bus address in XDG_RUNTIME_DIR.
      (LP: #1235649, LP: #1252317).
    - debian/control, debian/rules: Build against libapparmor for AppArmor
      D-Bus mediation
    - debian/control: Use logind for session tracking, so that "at_console"
      policies work with logind instead of ConsoleKit. Add "libpam-systemd"
      recommends.
    - debian/rules: Adjust dbus-send path to our changed install layout.
      (LP: #1325364)
    - debian/dbus-Xsession: Don't start a session bus if there already is
      one, i. e. $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is already set. (Closes: #681241)
    - 0001-Document-AppArmor-enforcement-in-the-dbus-daemon-man.patch,
      0002-Add-apparmor-element-and-attributes-to-the-bus-confi.patch,
      0003-Update-autoconf-file-to-build-against-libapparmor.patch,
      0004-Add-apparmor-element-support-to-bus-config-parsing.patch,
      0005-Initialize-AppArmor-mediation.patch,
      0006-Store-AppArmor-label-of-bus-during-initialization.patch,
      0007-Store-AppArmor-label-of-connecting-processes.patch,
      0008-Mediation-of-processes-that-acquire-well-known-names.patch,
      0009-Do-LSM-checks-after-determining-if-the-message-is-a-.patch,
      0010-Mediation-of-processes-sending-and-receiving-message.patch,
      0011-Mediation-of-processes-eavesdropping.patch,
      0012-New-a-sv-helper-for-using-byte-arrays-as-the-variant.patch,
      0013-Add-AppArmor-support-to-GetConnectionCredentials.patch: Add the
      latest set of AppArmor D-Bus mediation patches. This the v3 patch set
      from the upstream feature inclusion bug.
      - https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75113
    - aa-get-connection-apparmor-security-context.patch: This is not
      intended for upstream inclusion. It implements a bus method
      (GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext) to get a connection's AppArmor
      security context but upstream D-Bus has recently added a generic way of
      getting a connection's security credentials (GetConnectionCredentials).
      Ubuntu should carry this patch until packages in the archive are moved
      over to the new, generic method of getting a connection's credentials.

dbus (1.8.12-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release 1.8.12
    - increase auth_timeout from 5 seconds back to 30 seconds since it
      appears to cause slow or failed boot on some systems, reverting a
      change in 1.8.8 (Closes: #769069)
    - add a README.Debian to the dbus package documenting how
      sysadmins with hostile local users can get the lower timeout back,
      if their systems are fast enough to boot correctly like that

dbus (1.8.10-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release 1.8.10
    - raise dbus-daemon's file descriptor limit to 65536 to avoid an
      opportunity for denial of service
      (CVE-2014-7824, an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-3636)
  * Start 'dbus-daemon --system' as root under sysvinit (it already
    starts as root under systemd), so it can increase its file
    descriptor limit
