ucf (2.0020) unstable; urgency=low
* Bug fix: "Syntax error in /usr/bin/ucfr", thanks to Emmanuel Bouthenot
Aaargh. Reincorporate change from the NMU. I thought I had done this,

Luberda. Simple typo fix. (Closes: #406053).
* Bug fix: "ucf: [ucfq] strange behavior when querying filenames",
thanks to Frank Küster. Modified ucfq/ucfr man pages to emphasize that
the scripts need a full path name to the file. Added sanity checks
such that not providing a full path would result in a diagnostic, but
for etch just exit gracefully. For lenny, these scripts shall die
with an error. Clarify all over that <path to configuration file>
means a full path. (Closes: #401899).

ucf (2.0017) unstable; urgency=low
* Bug fix: "ucf: spelling errors", thanks to Matt Taggart (Closes: #395444). * Bug fix: "ucf: should be silent when it's being purged", thanks to Santiago Vila (Closes: #397112). * Bug fix: "please document package registry better", thanks to Frank Küster. The package registry is documented in a manual page. Any enhancements to the manual page would be gratefully accepted. The ucf manual page now has a reference to ucfr and ucfq. I d not think, however, that this merits a NEWS file: the vast majority of users who install ucf do so since it is pulled in as a dependency, and they don't care a white about ucfr being added. The only people who might care are people who use ucf to manage configuration files, and that is a very small number. NEWS items should be relegated to important information that may affect the majority of installations; and this does not fit the bill. (Closes: #395011).

ucf (2.0012) unstable; urgency=low
* Bug fix: "ucf takes not enough care using readlink -f", thanks to
Matthew Vernon. While this is not a grave bug (emitting better
diagnostics is nice, but hardly critical), I did go through and fixed
all readlink failing issues. I also improved the pager determination
code, while I was at it, so ucf is more likely to find a sensible
pager. The new code should also handle a messed up /etc/alternatives
setup now. (Closes: #372303).

thanks to Daniel Nylander (Closes: #334800).
* Bug fix: "ucf: Needs root access to display the help message", thanks
to Frédéric Bothamy. Allow ucf to be run as non-root. This entailed
not loading debconf related stuff, since that seems to require root
privileges. Instead, we just emit a diagnostic and go on. Hopefully
this is enough to let the user know when debconf does not work as
expected. Also, if ucf is not running as root, automatically
transition into the no-action mode, so a non-root user can still be
able run ucf in diagnostic mode. (Closes: #332239).
* Added a note to the man page that --purge does not touch the

ucf thinks like sensible-pager, looking at $PAGER,

-- and then, if the pager is more, it pauses after displaying the
diff, so that the diff is not whisked away by debconf looping back to

Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> * Added debconf support to ucf. It will use debconf for prompting. * Since some badly behaved maintainer scripts use debconf, then cripple it (by calling STOP, redirecting stdio, etc), and then call ucf, ucf must take care to not use debconf if called from such a script. In this case it will fall back to prompting without using debconf, unless a --debconf-ok parameter is given, to let ucf know that the maintainer script promises it has not screwed up debconf. * Update ucf.1 * Since the above hack means that ucf retains the ability to prompt on its own, I made it not depend on debconf at all; if debconf is not present then ucf will fall back to its internal prompter. closes: Bug#234151 Manoj: * Changed the rules file to handle permissions better in face of strange umasks.

* No longer save conffiler.dpkg-old unless conffile had been
modified. This should prevent the buildup of .dpkg-old cruft over
time. closes: Bug#189520
* Document the fact that --three-way first appeared in version 0.8 of
ucf, which was the first version to hit sarge. The woody version of
ucf shall not understand the --thre-way option. closes: Bug#202431

* A thinko in the logic for moving a old, locally modified configuration
file to ucf could cause data loss.

a while now, and seems to be working, but was not documented so far.

ucf (0.10) unstable; urgency=low
* Urk. Major breakage in ucf on upgrade; one loses
/var/lib/ucf/hashfile, due to a major thinko. The downside is that the
currently installed file shall be trated as the old version, and a
wquestion shall be asked if the upstream file is different. This bad,
but there is no real data loss; only a potential question asked on the
next upgrade of packages using ucf.

* Umm. use egrep when you mean egrep.
-- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org> Sun, 10 Nov 2002 22:57:57 -0600
ucf (0.08) unstable; urgency=high
* Add a --purge option to ucf, to remove all hints about a configuration
file from the hashfile. This fixes what happened if a package was
purged, and reinstalled -- on purge the configuration file was
removed, but it was still in ucf's database. On reinstall, since the
upstream file had not changed, ucf did not copy it to the destination
-- even though the destination file no longer existed. This is a major
bugfix. closes: Bug#159015
* Fix use of md5sum files, and manpage typo, thanks to a patch from
Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@debian.org>. closes: Bug#163229
* ucf now has a rudimentary, experimental, and undocumented diff3
capability. So, optionally, people can see a diff3 diff between the
current file, the old file, and the new upstream version. Also, they
can have the changes made in the upstream versions merged into the
current file. This can be dangerous.

ucf (0.05) unstable; urgency=low
* /etc/ucf.conf and ucf.conf(5) disagreed due to a typo in the man
page. Fixed. closes: Bug#135691
* Added the ability for the developer to specify a single file with
historical md5sums, instead of having to ship a directory populated
with single line files for every configuration file in the
package. This is now beginning to get reasonably complex ;-)

ucf (0.04) unstable; urgency=high
* Hmm. Failed to replace the configuration file if the old file was a
symbolic link to the new file (happened for gnus users). Thanks go to
wsheets@sbcglobal.net for pointing this out.
