2002

eperl (2.2.14-6) unstable; urgency=low

   * eperl_perl5.c eperl_main.c: move the whole Perl processing stuff
     into eperl_perl5.c, so that eperl_perl5.h is no more needed by
     eperl_main.c.  This is needed to let ePerl compile with future
     Perl 5.8
   * eperl_config.h: define MAXPATHLEN if necessary
   * Makefile.PL: restore original file, old hack does not seem to
     be necessary anymore
   * configure.in: can be processed by Autoconf 2.1x and 2.5x
   * Build against Perl 5.8

 -- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org>  Thu, 8 Aug 2002 10:13:26 +0200

eperl (2.2.14-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * The #sinclude directive calling an external server could allow

eperl (2.2.14-2) unstable; urgency=high

   * Urgency set to high because previous security fix could not compile
     from source.
   * Fix debian/rules so that dh_perl can perform its job and find Perl
     dependencies (Closes: Bug#86852).
   * A Build-Depends against perl versioned 5.6.0-19 is added since
     perl ldflags do no more refer to -lposix nor -l*db*
     (Closes: Bug#86938).

 -- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org>  Thu, 22 Feb 2001 23:09:40 +0100

eperl (2.2.14-1) unstable; urgency=high

   * After auditing all string manipulations, some new buffer
     overflows are detected and fixed. This is why urgency is set to high.
     Closes: Bug#71479
   * All header lines now end up with `\r\n', not only Content-type.
   * Change t/05-mode_nphcgi.t to reflect these changes in HTTP headers.
   * Fix Build-Depends (Closes: Bug#86550)

 -- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org>  Mon, 19 Feb 2001 00:37:55 +0100

eperl (2.2.14-0.8) unstable; urgency=low

   * Hijacked ePerl because Heiko seems not having time to work on it.
     This is not the kindest action i made, and my apologies go to Heiko,
     but i really need to make this package work quickly.
   * Make etc/shtool executable before building (Closes: Bug#81198).

 -- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org>  Sat, 17 Feb 2001 10:23:25 +0000

2000

eperl (2.2.14-0.7) unstable; urgency=low

   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * Recompiled for perl-5.6 (Closes: Bug#76506).
   * Added Build-Depends (Closes: Bug#70318).
   * Applied Fumitoshi UKAI's security patch against possible buffer
     overflow.  UKAI says it still needs auditing, so I'm leaving this bug
     report open (Bug#71479).
   * Patch from Fumitoshi UKAI that fixes problem with sending HTTP status
     code (Closes: Bug#66204).
   * Fixed ePerl Y2K bug in ePerl.pm and etc/newvers (Closes: Bug#69312).
   * Added missing #DEBHELPER# in postinst and postrm so that the
     /usr/doc/eperl symlink is created (Closes: Bug#76507).
   * Extraneous .packlist, fixed in 2.2.14-0.4 (Closes: Bug#38957).
   * Added a temporary, ugly kludge in debian/rules so that the build won't
     look for the obsolete (?) libposix on woody.
   * Merged in newer eperl code from wml-2.0.6.
   * "Modernized" debian/rules.

 -- Anthony Fok <foka@debian.org>  Wed, 20 Dec 2000 15:20:52 -0700

1999

eperl (2.2.14-0.5) unstable; urgency=medium

   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * Recompiled for perl-5.005.
   * Partially upgraded to standards version 3.0.0:
      - Updated copyright to point to /usr/share/common-licenses
      - FHS-compliance, with the notable exception of the
        /usr/doc/eperl -> /usr/share/doc/eperl switch.
   * [debian/rules]: Uses dh_perl to generate perl dependency instead of
       hard-coding it in debian/control.  (Thanks Raphaƫl!  :-)
   * Removed the hack in ./Makefile.PL as the new Perl package seems
     to have fixed the segfault problemI had with eperl_2.2.14-0.3.
   * Suggests: libapache-mod-perl (>= 1.19-2), which does not yet
       exist but is predicted to be compatible with the new Perl.  :-)

 -- Anthony Fok <foka@debian.org>  Tue, 6 Jul 1999 03:53:39 -0600

eperl (2.2.14-0.4) unstable; urgency=low

   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * Recompiled on master (slink) because the copy of eperl 2.2.14-0.3
     compiled on my i386 computer (potato) gives a segmentation fault.
   * Suggests: libapache-mod-perl (>= 1.16-2) from slink instead of
     (>= 1.19-1) which is only in potato.
   * Removed /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.004/auto/Parse/ePerl/.packlist

 -- Anthony Fok <foka@debian.org>  Fri, 11 Jun 1999 19:53:02 -0500

eperl (2.2.14-0.3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * Incorporated some fixes from WML 1.7.1.
   * Upgraded to standards version 2.5.1 (no change).
   * [./Makefile.PL]: A small hack which in effect changes
      "-lc -leperl" to "-leperl -lc" in ./mod/Parse/Makefile to keep ld
      from complaining about "undefined versioned symbol name
      strndup@@GLIBC_2.0".  Thanks to Joel Klecker for pinpointing the
      problem!  :-)
   * Suggests: libapache-mod-perl (>= 1.19-1), thanks to Lintian.  :-)
