* New upstream release.
  Closes: #366395: pptpd: New Upstream version - fixes reordering and
                   loopback bugs
  This release also includes the patches contributed by Ilguiz Latypov to
  allow multiple control connections from the same client IP (e.g. for
  multiple clients behind the same NAT connecting to the same pptpd server).
  This seems to have been fixed with upstream 1.2.1, but I missed it then.
  Closes: #171831: pptpd allocates call ID 0 for every new TCP link
* Acknowledge NMU. Thanks to Luk for helping out.
  Closes: #356104: diff for 1.2.3-1.1 NMU of pptpd
  Closes: #350456: bcrelay: Should "Conflicts: pptpd (<< 1.2.3-1)"
* Manually updated plugins/pppd.h again with header from ppp-dev 2.4.4b1-1.

* New upstream release.
* Added watch file.
* Manually updated the pppd headers for the logwtmp plugin again.
  This release should work with ppp 2.4.4b1 now, so depend on this version.
  Closes: #343150: pptpd-logwtmp.so does not work with ppp 2.4.4b1
* Split off the bcrelay binary into its own package. pptpd now depends on
  it (it does not necessarily depend on bcrelay, but most people will want
  to use it and recommends are still handled rather poorly).
  Closes: #347414: pptpd: Splitting bcrelay as a separate package
* Update dh_compat to level 4 now.

4. By Rene Mayrhofer <email address hidden> on 2005-09-26

* Depend on debconf | debconf-2.0. Thanks to Joey for the reminder....
* While I am at it, also use dh_compat level 3 now.

Updated depends on ppp to 2.4.3-20041231 to prevent automatic
upgrades of pptpd in sarge. In fact, the only change to the version
presently in sarge is the update of headers for the new ppp, so
reflect this in the depends.
Thanks to Norman Rasmussen for actually suggesting this simple fix for
this bug report.
Closes: #305012: logwtmp plugin is for pppd version 2.4.3, but version
is 2.4.2

* Finally acknowledge the bugs fixed in the NMUs:
  Closes: #132819 (Build-Depends on devhelper)
  Closes: #126712 (Mark /etc/init.d/pptpd as conffile)
  Closes: #57849 (Remove recommends line)
* Enable the MSCHAP and MPPE options again in the default config, but now
  changed for the new upstream pppd syntax.
* Also include the new upstream source in the upload -
  dpkg-buildpackage was confused by the version number.
* Enhance the init script to:
  - Include a "status" option.
  - Force pptpd to close its file descriptors.
  Closes: #189426: pptpd does not close/redirect stdout and stderr
* Use po-debconf for debconf translations and add pt_BR and FR translations.
  However, debconf is still not used for autoconfig until I find time to
  implement the config script properly. It will come, soon ;)
  Also fix some english short descriptions - thanks for pointing that out.
  Closes: #191703: Update packaging to use the newer gettext-based debconf
          template translation system
  Closes: #208049: Please switch to gettext-based debconf templates
  Closes: #211273: French translation of gettext debconf template
  I will leave #209082 open until the config script works....
* Also ship the README.bcrelay file in the binary package.
* Move the HOWTO-IPX+PPTP.txt file from the html/ directory to the normal
  doc directory.
  Closes: #220707: CVS directory, and non-html in 'html' dir
* Document that IP forwarding needs to be enabled, but refer to
  /etc/network/options instead of /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward.
  Closes: #168718: Documentation has no reference to
          /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
