* Removed no longer needed build conflict against libreadline-dev

[ Kurt Roeckx ]
* New upstream version.
  - Fixes problem with ipv6 multicast (Closes: #584927)
* Move dhcp exit hooks from /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d to
  /etc/dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d. Add dpkg-maintscript-helper
  to maintainer scripts to move them, and add a Breaks on
  dhcp3-client (<< 4.1.0-1) (Closes: #585054, #585055)

* New upstream version
  - They no longer ship arlib, adjust dfsg.patch.
  - Drop kfreebsd.patch, applied upstream
  - Update patches for upstream changes.
* Remove the obsolete config files:

  for ntp:
  - /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/ntp, removed in 1:4.2.6+dfsg-1
  - /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/ntp, replaced by exit hooks in
    1:4.2.4p4+dfsg-3
  - /etc/network/if-up.d/ntp, removed in 1:4.2.4p0+dfsg-1

  for ntpdate:
  - /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/ntpdate, replaced by exit hooks in
    1:4.2.4p4+dfsg-3

  Use dpkg 1.15.7.2's dpkg-maintscript-helper. This needs
  a Pre-Depends to work, else it's never going to be removed.
  (Closes: #569530)
* Add "Depends: ${misc:Depends}" to ntp-doc.

9. By Kurt Roeckx on 2009-12-26

* New upstream version
  - They no longer use the built in md5 with unclear license: adjust
    dfsg.sh and dfsg.patch.
  - Location of the html pages has changed location: adjust dfsg.sh
  - Remove ntptimeval.patch and ntptrace-getopt.patch, applied upstream.
  - Change libedit.patch and call configure with
    --with-lineeditlibs=edit instead.
  - Update nanokernel-status.patch to also do it for the new
    direct_freq() function.
  - includes.diff: Stop including ntp_refclock.h, since it breaks things.
  - Upstream no longer provides an ntpdsim.1 manpage, so don't try to
    to remove it.
* Use the system libopts instead of the internal copy: add build-dependency
  on autogen, call configure with --disable-local-libopts. There is also
  no need anymore to remove the usr/lib dir.
* Remove ntp_gettime.patch, it wasn't used, and we have libc calls that
  wrap adjtimex now anyway.
* Remove the doc.patch, it's either just wrong or more confusing than the
  original text.
* Merge the ntpd-char-fix.patch into ntpd-ni-maxhost.patch
* Fix kfreebsd.patch's comment to be about the right patch.
* Add comment to dfsg.patch
* Update autotools.patch's comment on how to recreate it.
* Split ntpd-linux-caps.patch in ntpd-linux-caps-runtime.patch and
  ntpd-linux-caps-inheritable.patch and add comments
* Don't run init script to stop ntpd, just let sendsigs/killprocs deal
  with it. (Closes: #540694)
* Compile with --enable-ntp-signd to enable mssntp for use with samba
  (Closes: #562065)
* Remove ntp.logcheck.ignore.server, none of those messages are
  send to syslog now. (Closes: #498992)

8. By Kurt Roeckx on 2009-12-08

* New upstream release.
  - Fixes DoS with mode 7 packets (CVE-2009-3563) (Closes: #560074)

* Fixed stack buffer overflow in ntpd (CVE-2009-1252) (closes: #525373)
* Use new status_of_proc function to report status in ntp init script
* Updated the config.guess/sub handling as recommended by autotools-dev to
  not clutter the diff, added autotools-dev to build dependencies

6. By Peter Eisentraut on 2009-02-18

* New upstream release
  - Updated ntpdate-ipv6.patch, autotools.patch
  - Obsoletes no-ipv6-fix.patch, CVE-2009-0021.patch
* Switched build dependency from libcap-dev to libcap2-dev (closes: #474639)

It did not properly check the return value of EVP_VerifyFinal
which results in an malformed DSA signature being treated as
a good signature rather than as an error. (CVE-2009-0021)

4. By Martin Pitt on 2005-03-14

* ntpd/ntpd.c:
  - Revert the hardcoded root dropping parameters from previous version.
    This is now done in init script.
  - Bugfix: If group was specified as name, previous versions erroneously
    used the uid as gid.
* debian/ntp-server.init.d:
  - Run as user/group ntp by default (previously hardcoded in ntpd.c).
  - Already determine the uid/gid of 'ntp' instead of doing it in ntpd.c
    (for some reason this fails directly after boot). (Ubuntu #5399)
  - Add -e to interpreter to stop on errors.
  - append "/usr/bin/" to PATH setting (for getent and cut).
