* new upstream release:
  - fix a race condition in signal handling during start-up that would
    cause nslcd to exit if a signal (such as SIGUSR1 that can be sent when
    network status changes) is received (closes: #759544)
  - fix signed integer overflow on 32bit systems when using objectSid
    (thanks Geoffrey McRae)
  - allow longer configuration values (thanks Jed Liu)
  - add an nss_getgrent_skipmembers option to disable retrieving group
    members to improve performance in specific environments
  - add an nss_disable_enumeration option to disable full listing of all
    users and groups to improve performance in specific environments
    (thanks Andrew Elble)
* drop avoid-signal-race.patch which is part of 0.9.6
* drop XS-Testsuite from debian/control
* use pathfind from Developer's Reference instead of full path to nslcd and
  pynslcd

avoid-signal-race.patch: avoid a signal mask race condition that could
prevent nslcd from starting correctly during boot (closes: #759544)

* new upstream release:
  - handle situation better when server (or firewall) closed the connection

    nslcd (thanks Patrick McLean)

33. By Arthur de Jong on 2014-09-28

* use-ip-range-for-tests.patch: use a different IP range for running the
  autopkgtest tests to avoid conflicts in test environments
* debconf translation updates:
  - Norwegian Bokmål by Petter Reinholdtsen (closes: #758693)
* prefer nslcd as nslcd-2 implementation (closes: #760287)
* do not remove PAM profile when another architecture remains (taken from
  the libpam_ldap package)

* provide a debconf prompt for tls_cacertfile if TLS is enabled and reqcert
  is configured (closes: #750949, #661872)
* update autopkgtest tests to dump daemon debug info if tests fail and not
  stop the tests on first failure

31. By Arthur de Jong on 2014-06-08

* upload to unstable
* new upstream release:
  - also handle password policy information on BIND failure (this makes it
    possible to distinguish between a wrong password and an expired
    password)
  - fix mapping the member attribute to an empty string
  - any buffers that may have held passwords are cleared before the memory
    is released
  - increase buffer size for passwords to support extremely long passwords
    (thanks ushi)
  - increase buffer size for DN to support very long names or names with
    non-ASCII characters
  - log an error in almost all places where a defined buffer is not large
    enough to hold the provided data instead of just (sometimes silently)
    failing
  - logging improvements (start-up problems, login failures)
* add signature checking option to watch file
* add a debian/upstream/metadata file

30. By Arthur de Jong on 2014-03-16

* new upstream release:
  - implement an -n switch to not daemonise (by Caleb Callaway)
  - increase password value buffer size (by Bersl)
  - fix for pwdLastSet attribute value handling (thanks Joshua Shire)
  - fix buffer overflow on interrupted read that is hard to trigger (thanks
    John Sullivan)
  - fix a possible crash in the NSS module when retrieving large networks
    entries (thanks Lukas Slebodnik)
  - avoid more broken pipe errors by using a low timeout when aborting reading
    requested information from nslcd (thanks John Sullivan)
  - only log broken pipe errors in debugging mode
  - ignore SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2 for future compatibility
* drop implement-nofork.patch which is part of 0.8.14
* upgrade to standards-version 3.9.5 (no changes needed)

29. By Arthur de Jong on 2013-10-17

* implement-nofork.patch: introduce a -n, --nofork option that skips the
  daemonising step on start-up (this is related to Ubuntu bug 806761 and
  may be required to get nslcd working with upstart)
* add init script dependency on $network to ensure that network is up
  before starting nslcd (closes: #726435)
* clean generated manual pages to allow the package to be built tice in
  a row

  from the configuration file by forcefully overwriting debconf values
  from nslcd.conf and not overwriting debconf values when reading other
  configuration files (closes: #717063)
