18. By Guillem Jover <email address hidden> on 2011-12-28

* Fix buffer overflow in telnetd allowing remote attackers to execute
  arbitrary code via a long encryption key. Patch taken from FreeBSD.
  CVE-2011-4862
* Abort on error from ping's sendto(2) call, instead of trying to continue
  sending echo packets in vain. (Closes: #323165)

17. By Guillem Jover <email address hidden> on 2011-11-05

* Move man pages from patches to actual files under debian/local/man/ to
  ease their modification, given that upstream has rejected including
  useful man pages there.
* Add a new inetutils-traceroute package providing a portable traceroute
  implementation for GNU/Hurd and GNU/kFreeBSD. (Closes: #610437)
  Thanks to Mats Erik Andersson <email address hidden>.
* Do not link against unused shared libraries. This removes the following
  dependencies from binaries:
  - inetutils-inetd, inetutils-syslogd → libshishi0
  - inetutils-telnet, inetutils-telnetd → libncurses5
  - inetutils-ftp → libncurses5, libtinfo5
* Disable silent rules to get useful build logs.

16. By Guillem Jover <email address hidden> on 2011-10-30

* Add new inetutils-inetd default configuration file for the init script,
  allowing to pass INETD_OPTS to it on start. (Closes: #606954)
* Use dh_lintian instead of manually installing the overrides.
* Override upstream SUIDMODE at make time, instead of patching the source.
* Do not change inetutils-syslogd Section to base on non-Linux architectures
  as that section does not exist any longer, just inherit it from the
  source stanza.
* Add build-indep and build-arch targets (rename build to build-arch).
* Add libncurses-dev to Build-Depends, although only libtinfo-dev is
  really needed (but that does not ship term.h). (Closes: #646143)
* Now using Standards-Version 3.9.2 (no changes needed).

15. By Guillem Jover <email address hidden> on 2010-11-18

* Revert wrong hunk from the tcpmux services fix.
  Thanks to Mats Erik Andersson.
* Fix IPv6 support in inetd and telnetd on GNU/kFreeBSD by passing
  the correct struct sockaddr length to socket functions depending on
  the address family, instead of always passing the size of struct
  sockaddr_storage. Thanks to Mats Erik Andersson and Simon Josefsson.
