2010

arpwatch (2.1a15-1.1) unstable; urgency=high

   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * High-urgency upload for RC bugfix.
   * Revert change in previous NMU that makes

     this can use dpkg-divert instead.  Closes: #552792, #550233.
   * Fix lintian errors introduced in previous upload:
     - maintainer script debhelper tokens
     - remove vestigial debian/cron.d.ex
   * Drop dependency on debianutils, which is essential
   * Fix author(s) boilerplate in debian/copyright
   * Bump standards version to 3.8.3 (no changes needed)

arpwatch (2.1a11-6.2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Fixed race condition in the bihourly and arpfetch cron scripts.
     (Closes: #256381)
     [patch 023_arpfetch]
   * Added the -u flag to run arpwatch with lower privileges as suggested
     by Den Gaudet and with a patch based on RedHat's. Also, the
     'arpwatch' user is created on postinst and used by the init
     script (Closes: #217488)
     [patch 024_username]
   * Changed test statement in the init script from -f to -x (Closes: #211645)
   * Added Multicast, VRRP (note), VMWare (retrieved from FreeBSD's ethercodes)
     and Compaq MAC addresses (Closes: #227375)
   * Changed the sample lines of the configuration file to just 'root'
     instead of 'root+ethX@example.com' (Closes: #197138)
   * Create an empty arp.dat file at /var/lib/arpwatch/ if it does not
     exist when running 'start_default()' in the init script. This will
     make arpwatch work even if you have not customised arpwatch.conf or
     the preinst fails to create that file.
     (Closes: #145259)
     [patch 025_arpdat]
   * Small improvements in arp2ethers so that it uses the default location
     of the arp.dat file, also noticed this in the manpage.
     [patch 026_arp2ethers2]
