piuparts (0.36) unstable; urgency=low
[ Holger Levsen ]
* The "For me. For you. For everybody." release.
* Break backwards compatibility of the configuration files for master-slave-
mode. Merge those three into one: /etc/piuparts/piuparts/piuparts.conf.
Introduce a new global section in piuparts.conf which is shared among the
other sections there.
* piuparts.py:
- add check whether scriptsdir exits, to fail gracefully if not.
- copy scriptsdir to chroot also when doing upgrade tests.
- added to self.ignored_files:
- /etc/shadow and /etc/shadow- (just as /etc/passwd* and /etc/group*)
- /var/games (see #524461)
- /etc/apt/trusted.gpg and /etc/apt/trusted.gpg~ (just as
/etc/apt/trustdb.gpg and other backup files)
- added to self.ignored_patterns:
- /var/lib/dpkg/triggers/*
- /var/lib/ldap(/.*)? (see #527898)
- /var/backups/.*
- modified self.ignored_patters:
- ignore everything in /tmp, not just in /tmp/scripts (see #528266)
- configure apt in chroots to not install recommends and suggests.
- add support for scanning for packages in changes files, thanks to Andres
Mejia for the patch. (Closes: #352940)
- change some methods from using 'args' to 'package_list'. This more
accurately represents what is being passed into these methods now.
- add an optional parameter to panic() method to specify what exit status
to use. Also thanks to Andres.
- add advice how to read the logfile to the top of the logfiles produced.
- add "FAIL: " to logging output for seven more failure types, so that it
becomes easier to group failure causes.
- allow piuparts to be stopped with control-C. Thanks to Carl Chenet for
the patch. (Closes: #523958)
- fail gracefully if piuparts is run as non-root user. Thanks to Ignace
Mouzannar for the patch. (Closes: #538273)
* piupartslib/packagesdb.py:
- change the test whether a package is testable to check whether the
package is of priority "required", and not whether it's "Essential".
- rename status "essential-required-important" to "essential-required"
as important packages can be tested like all the others.
- handle binNMUs where the Source header in the Packages file includes the
Version and the Source package name in one line.
- fix get_packages_in_state() to only return unique packages and not also
the provided ones as exact copies.
* Install scripts for master-slave mode without .py extension.
* piuparts-master.py: remove code to write statistics, that is done only in
piuparts-report.py now.
* piuparts-slave.py:
- support looping trough multiple sections in piuparts.conf via new config
value "sections". Thanks to Frank Ploss for writing this patch with me
and helping me understand the code much better!
- allow the user to stop the slave with control-C.
- call piuparts with --mirror when mirror is set in piuparts.conf.
* Re-add piuparts-reports.py which got removed/lost between 0.14 and 0.20
without changelog entry.
* piuparts-report.py:
- support sections in configuration file.
- support looping trough multiple sections in piuparts.conf via new config
value "sections".
- generate counts.txt (per section) with raw numbers of packages per state,
include these stats in the debug output (so it gets included in the mails
send by cron.)
- introduce new setting "sources-url" for piuparts.conf.
- generate sources.txt (per section) with a summary status per source
package (for the PTS to display a source packages piuparts state)
- generate html status pages for all source packages (to link from the PTS)
with links to state explaination and available logfiles, handle udebs.
- provide links to logfiles in statistics page.
- provide links to source packages pages from state pages and back, as well
as links to the dependencies state.
- draw graphs of package states over time (if pypthon-rpy and gs are
installed) - thanks to Thomas Viehmann and Dirk Eddelbüttel for
inspiration and support.
- create maintainer centric pages for each email address found in
Maintainers or Uploaders.
- improve layout, generate navigation for all pages.
- use icons to provide a quick overview of a source packages status.
(Thanks to tango.freedesktop.org for the icons!)
- include index.tpl (if it exists) from output-directory into the
generated index page, so one can add news to the index page without
editing piuparts-report.py.
- generate pages for known issues, which are detected by bash helper
script, run by cron on piuparts.debian.org and available from
svn/piuparts/piatti/home/piupartsm/bin/detect_well_known_errors
* Always use alphabetic time zone abbreviation in timestamps.
* Makefile:
- add "~$date" to versionstring if building an unreleased version, thus
adding dpkg-dev to build-depends.
- split install target into install-doc, install-conf and install, to aid
development and deployment from trunk.
* debian/control:
- depend on python (>>2.4), make dependency to python-debian unversioned.
- add build-dependencies on debhelper, asciidoc and xmlto.
- dependency gs has been renamed to ghostcript
- remove build-dependencies on docbook2x and docbook-xml.
- suggest python-rpy and gs to improve piuparts-report output.
- set Homepage: to http://piuparts.debian.org
- remove Lucas Nussbaum, Ana Guerrero, John Wright and Bill Allombert from
uploaders - thanks for your work!
- Replace Ians email address with one that doesn't give an errorcode when
sending mail to it
- bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3, no changes necessary.
* Rewrite debian/rules from scratch using debhelper.
* Merge README, how-to-use-piuparts.txt and custom-scripts.txt into
README.txt, convert it to asciidoc and build pdf and html versions of it.
* Restructure and update README.txt to reflect the configuration changes in
master-slave mode.
* Add debian/NEWS file.
* Rewrite piuparts manpage in asciidoc.
* Build and install html version of the piuparts manpage.
* Update debian/copyright to reflect that piuparts is licenced under GPL2+.
* Update FSF address in all files referencing the GPL.
* Remove unused file piuparts.css.

piuparts (0.31) unstable; urgency=low
[ Lars Wirzenius ]
* piuparts.docbook: Added a few words of description of the tarball
that -b expects. (Closes: 466048)
[ Lucas Nussbaum ]
* Added a --debfoster-options option, to allow the user to override
debfoster's default options and test with more packages installed
in the chroot. (Closes: #458922)
* Mention piuparts -s in in how-to-use-piuparts.txt.
* Finally fixes the check for broken symlinks. Thanks go to
Tobias Grimm for the patch. (Closes: #468157, 478587)
* Ignore /var/cache/ldconfig/aux-cache.
* Added myself to uploaders.
* Keep /proc mounted. Switch to calling tar directly in
pack_into_tgz(). Minor refactorings. Thanks go to Tobias Grimm
for the patch. (Closes: #478577)
* Move piuparts to priority: extra, since it depends on debootstrap which
is extra. (Closes: #477634)
[ Luk Claes ]
* Added -w to lsof call to suppress warnings. (Closes: #466102).
[ Holger Levsen ]
* Add a copyright statement to debian/copyright.
* Add support for post_upgrade custom script.
* Minor fixes in how-to-use-piuparts.txt.
* piuparts.docbook: Correct the path to dtd, it's
/usr/share/xml/docbook/schema/dtd/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd and add a
build-dependency for docbook-xml
-- Holger Levsen <holger@debian.org> Sun, 11 May 2008 22:17:52 +0200
piuparts (0.30) unstable; urgency=low
* piuparts.py:
- Implement Chroot.create_temp_tgz_file() (since it's used in the VirtServ
subclass)
- Fix a typo -- chroot.create_temp_tgz() was being called instead of
chroot.create_temp_tgz_file() (Closes: #465416)
-- John Wright <jsw@debian.org> Thu, 14 Feb 2008 20:32:35 -0700
piuparts (0.29) unstable; urgency=low
[ Ana Beatriz Guerrero Lopez ]
* Updated uploaders, remove Amaya and Alastair.
[ Lars Wirzenius ]
* piuparts.py: Call "apt-get update" before calling Chroot.minimize, so
that we can find the debfoster package on Ubuntu.
* debian/control: Fixed "Uploaders:" to have my preferred e-mail address
(liw@iki.fi) instead of my Debian one.
* piuparts.py: Added -D option to set Debian flavor, plus two sets of
default settings depending on the flavor, one for Debian itself, and
another for Ubuntu. The settings choose default mirror and distribution
set (sid vs gutsy). This will allow an Ubuntu version of the package
to set defaults at package building time.
* piuparts.py: Report target of broken symlink correctly, instead of
saying "True".
* piuparts.py: Use lsb-release to guess the Debian flavor.
* debian/control: Added dependency on lsb-release.
* piuparts-master.py: Make the master write summary of total pass/fail
packages, plus status per binary package. This is for having the
Debian PTS and the Ubuntu developer weather report show summaries
of piuparts results.
* integraged changes from Ubuntu by Ian Jackson to support autopkgtest.
* wrapped long lines in debian/control.
[ Holger Levsen ]
* Added myself to uploaders.
* Added Homepage: header to debian/control and changed the homepage to be
http://wiki.debian.org/piuparts.
* Use Vcs-* headers in debian/control instead of XS-Vcs-*.
* Bumped policy version to 3.7.3.
* Updated download location in debian/copyright.
[ John Wright ]
* Change the --warn-on-others implementation to create a dummy metapackage
with the needed dependencies and install it in the chroot, rather than
using "apt-get install package package-". The previous implementation
had issues when the package was already installed (and especially if the
package had essential packages in its reverse dependencies). This has
the pleasant side-effect of making --warn-on-others work both with and
without --apt. (Closes: #458929)
* Fix a bug in check_for_broken_symlinks(): the targets for the broken
symlinks (used for logging) were being read from files on the real root
filesystem, rather than in the chroot.
-- Lars Wirzenius <liw@iki.fi> Fri, 01 Feb 2008 16:38:38 +0200
2007
piuparts (0.28) unstable; urgency=low
* Fix an UnboundLocalError introduced in the --warn-on-others fix that would
occur if run without the --apt option. (Closes: #443641)
-- John Wright <jsw@debian.org> Sat, 22 Sep 2007 23:32:17 -0600
piuparts (0.27) unstable; urgency=low
* Add support for testing multiple distributions and architectures to
piuparts-master.py and piuparts-slave.py. Please see the README file,
piuparts-master.conf.sample and piuparts-slave.conf.sample for more
details. (Closes: #349365)
* Fix the --warn-on-others option. Now, dependencies are installed before
the packages we wish to test, and an inventory is taken then, so that we
can know which errors were caused by the packages explicitly specified on
the command-line. Currently, this requires --apt, and doesn't work quite
as advertised if there are circular dependencies with the packages you wish
to test (see the man page for more details). (Closes: #440310)
* debian/control:
- Update my email address in the Uploaders field

piuparts (0.25) unstable; urgency=low
* Add the option to run custom scripts inside the piuparts chroot.
Scripts are stored in a directory and give it as argument with the
option --scriptsdir=/dir/with/the/scripts
This feature is still experimental :)
* Add custom-scripts.txt with information about the custom scripts.
-- Ana Beatriz Guerrero Lopez <ana@debian.org> Tue, 28 Aug 2007 14:39:32 +0200
piuparts (0.24) unstable; urgency=low
* Add /var/lib/apt/extended_states to ignored_files. Thanks Anibal!
(Closes: #434980)
* Add quick howto about how to use piuparts under docs.
* Add test that checks the output from the cron files left in the system
after removing a package. This includes the option --skip-cronfiles-test,
to allow skipping this test.
-- Ana Beatriz Guerrero Lopez <ana@debian.org> Mon, 20 Aug 2007 10:27:29 +0200
piuparts (0.23) unstable; urgency=low
* Cosmetic change, now file owner and file are shown in the same line.
* Add option --list-installed-files, that list files added/removed/modified
to the chroot after the package's installation. (Closes: #431821)
* Add option --no-upgrade-test, that allows skip testing upgrade from an
existing version in the archive. (Closes: #349933)
