guessnet (0.40-1) unstable; urgency=low

   [ Joachim Breitner ]
   * test-wireless makes wireless interface lose association (Closes:
     #329419)
     Until now, test-wireless ifconfig up'ed the interface and ifconfig down'ed
     it afterwards, which always caused a disconnect. I have removed these
     lines. If it breaks it for you now, please tell us, so that we can
     implement a conditional ifconfig-up-and-down'ing.
 
   [ Enrico Zini ]
   * New upstream version.
     - Use the system classes from wibble 0.1.4+
     - Fix the script line parser for the standalone configuration file.
       Closes: bug#387601.
     - Correctly prints wlan and priv link beat detection errors.
       Closes: bug#387603.
     - Better output for link detection functions when they fail.
       Closes: bug#387600.
     - Correctly handle error cases in link beat detection.
       Closes: bug#336924.
     - Don't check if the wlan interface is associated with an AP as part
       of link-beat detection.
   * Added X-Vcs-Svn tag to debian/control

 -- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org>  Tue, 29 Aug 2006 08:30:18 +0200

guessnet (0.39-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream version.
      + Ported to libwibble.
      + Fixed path of arping.  Closes: #384569.
      + Greatly improved /etc/network/interfaces examples.
        Thanks Adeodato Simó for the patches.
      + Applied patch from NMU.  Closes: 357182.
        Thanks Martin Michlmayr for the patch.
      + Added an FAQ entry on how to run tests only on some interfaces.
        Closes: #374326.
      + Removed check for existance of script file and looking for scripts with
        relative paths in the script directory: it did not add security and
        it was more confusing than useful.  Closes: #366549.
   * Updated Standards-Version, no change required.

 -- Enrico Zini <enrico@debian.org>  Fri, 25 Aug 2006 19:25:26 +0100

guessnet (0.37-1) unstable; urgency=low

   [ Thomas Hood ]
   * Bump Standards-Version to 3.6.2.1; no changes required
 
   [ Enrico Zini ]
   * New upstream version
     + Implemented peer test without destination IP, to test for the existance
       of physical interfaces with changing IP addresses.
     + Script scans now look for the script in /usr/share/guessnet/test instead
       of current directory if they are specified with relative paths.
       Hopefully noone used relative paths, as they didn't work.
       Script scans now also get a sane and clean PATH, which includes the
       script directory itself.  Closes: #257328.

guessnet (0.36-1) unstable; urgency=low

     + Make test-wireless-ap handle the MAC address argument properly
       (Closes: #286835)

     + No longer use ip command in /usr/share/guessnet/test/test-*.
       Use ifconfig instead.  (Closes: #294346)
     + Comment resolvconf-related lines from /etc/network/interfaces
       example stanzas since users could be confused by them
       (Closes: #297836)

 -- Enrico Zini <enrico@debian.org>  Mon, 2 May 2005 14:11:32 +0200

guessnet (0.35-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * Allows any amount of whitespace in /etc/network/interfaces between "test"
     and the rest of the line (partly addresses #293356)
   * Complains if a line starts with "test(-|\s)" but it cannot be parsed by
     guessnet. Closes: #293356.

     BTW, invoking guessnet by that name is the only clean way to tell guessnet
     it's being invoked by ifupdown.
     Bug#139383 has a simple suggestion for a better ways of doing that, too
     bad it's 1 year and 50 days old at the moment and there's no sign it will
     be addressed soon.
