Fedora Core 2 Update: dovecot-0.99.13-4.FC2
by John Dennis
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-037
2005-01-18
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 2
Name : dovecot
Version : 0.99.13
Release : 4.FC2
Summary : Dovecot Secure imap server
Description :
Dovecot is an IMAP server for Linux/UNIX-like systems, written with security
primarily in mind. It also contains a small POP3 server. It supports mail
in either of maildir or mbox formats.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
This is a bug fix update for the Dovecot IMAP server. This brings the
Red Hat Dovecot rpm up to date with the latest upstream release from
Timo Sirainen, version 0.99.13 released on Jan 6th 2005.
Upstream Fixes are noted below and below that are Red Hat specific
fixes.
Please note there have been some changes to the /etc/dovecot.conf
file. When the rpm installs it may create /etc/dovecot.conf.rpmnew
file with the new version of the config file while preserving your
previous /etc/dovecot.conf file if you have modified the config
file. It would be prudent to compare the two files and see if you need
to adjust your configuration.
In dovecot-0.99.13-3.FC2 authentication support using postgres and
mysql was enabled requiring these rpms. This was a change from the
previous dovecot rpm in FC2. This version of the rpm reverts back to
not building with postgres and mysql support to match previous
dependencies and features with the FC2 version of dovecot.
This version of the rpm also reverts a configuration file change that
appeared in dovecot-0.99.13-3.FC2 which had disabled overriding the
default mbox_locks value of "fcntl dotlock". This caused the creation
of dotlocks in addition to fcntl. This was a change from the previous
behavior and created some problems. The previous mbox_lock value of
fcntl only was restored to the config file.
Aside from the upstream fixes notable change in the RPM include:
- University of Washington Imap (UW Imap) migration documentation and
scripts in the doc area (/usr/share/doc/dovecot-*)
- More example configurations in the doc area.
- The script to generate SSL certificates (mkcert in the doc area) now
is congruent with Red Hat's OpenSSL rpm.
- The init.d script now starts dovecot later (it used to start it
before named). If this problem was affecting your installation
you'll have to chkconfig del and add to recreate the rc.d sym links,
new installations will automatically pick up the new start order.
- Add a Red Specific FAQ to the doc area, mostly to address issues
some sites were having with dot lock file creation.
====== Upstream Fixes ======
0.99.13
* GNUTLS support hasn't been working for a while, so it's not even
tried to be used anymore unless explicitly wanted.
+ Added CRAM-MD5 authentication mechanism. Patch by Joshua Goodall
+ Added SMD5 and LDAP-MD5 password schemes and changed MD5 scheme to
use LDAP-MD5 if the password isn't in MD5crypt format. Patch by
Joshua Goodall
+ Workaround for some POP3 client bugs: if message doesn't contain the
"end of headers" empty line, add it automatically.
+ vpopmail supports now all password schemes, most importantly
MD5crypt works now without support from libc's crypt()
- SQL and LDAP authentication was broken
- SEARCH UNKEYWORD wasn't working
0.99.12
- Fix memory leaks in LDAP, MySQL and PGSQL userdb/passdb
- Fix hanging when parsing mails that have over 4096 bytes in one
line (SMTP servers normally don't allow over 1000 bytes so it
shouldn't be much of a problem)
- FETCH BODYSTRUCTURE sometimes gave a wrong reply
(eg. with FETCH (BODYSTRUCTURE RFC822.SIZE) if it wasn't cached)
- Never return more than one INBOX in LIST even if there are such
files. They don't work anyway and it just confuses clients.
- mbox: Don't allow creating INBOX directory by creating/renaming
mailboxes under it. They just wouldn't work.
- POP3: Don't return PLAIN in SASL list. We don't support initial SASL
responses, so it only breaks with most clients that try to use it.
- IMAP and POP3 login processes may have sent each line in two IP
packets, one with the data and another with CR+LF. Some clients
didn't work because of this.
0.99.11
+ 127.* and ::1 IP addresses are treated as secured with
disable_plaintext_auth = yes
+ auth_debug setting for extra authentication debugging
+ Some documentation and error message updates
+ Create PID file in /var/run/dovecot/master.pid
+ home setting is now optional in static userdb
+ Added mail setting to static userdb
- After APPENDing to selected mailbox Dovecot didn't always notice the
new mail immediately which broke some clients
- THREAD and SORT commands crashed with some mails
- If APPENDed mail ended with CR character, Dovecot aborted the saving
- Output streams sometimes sent data duplicated and lost part of it.
This could have caused various strange problems, but looks like in
practise it rarely caused real problems.
====== Red Hat RPM Fixes ======
- fix bug #145214, mbox_lock is fcntl only in config file, remove dotlock default
- fix bug #145241, remove errant dependency on primary postgres & mysql rpms
- add REDHAT-FAQ.txt to doc directory
- fix bug #143707, bring up to date with latest upstream, 0.99.13,
- fix bug #14462, bad dovecot-uid macro name
- fix bug #133618, removed LITERAL+ capability from capability string
- fix bug #134325, stop dovecot during installation
- fix bug #129539, dovecot starts too early,
set chkconfig to 65 35 to match cyrus-imapd
- fix bug #139954, add UW to Dovecot migration documentation and scripts
- fix bug #139276, fix SSL documentation and scripts, add missing documentation
- fix bug #136623 Change License field from GPL to LGPL to reflect
actual license
- fix bug #124786, listen to ipv6 as well as ipv4
---------------------------------------------------------------------
* Mon Jan 17 2005 John Dennis <jdennis(a)redhat.com> 0.99.13-4.FC2
- fix bug #145214, force mbox_locks to fcntl only
- fix bug #145241, remove building of postgres & mysql auth support for FC2

Fedora Core 3 Update: gimp-2.2.2-0.fc3.3
by Nils Philippsen
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-036
2005-01-18
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 3
Name : gimp
Version : 2.2.2
Release : 0.fc3.3
Summary : The GNU Image Manipulation Program
Description :
The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is a powerful image
composition and editing program, which can be extremely useful for
creating logos and other graphics for webpages. The GIMP has many of
the tools and filters you would expect to find in similar commercial
offerings, and some interesting extras as well. The GIMP provides a
large image manipulation toolbox, including channel operations and
layers, effects, sub-pixel imaging and anti-aliasing, and conversions,
all with multi-level undo.
The GIMP includes a scripting facility, but many of the included
scripts rely on fonts that we cannot distribute. The GIMP FTP site
has a package of fonts that you can install by yourself, which
includes all the fonts needed to run the included scripts. Some of
the fonts have unusual licensing requirements; all the licenses are
documented in the package. Get
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/fonts/freefonts-0.10.tar.gz and
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/fonts/sharefonts-0.10.tar.gz if you are so
inclined. Alternatively, choose fonts which exist on your system
before running the scripts.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
* Mon Jan 17 2005 Nils Philippsen <nphilipp(a)redhat.com>
- clip thumbnail quality at 75 and don't barf on saving images at quality 0
(fix patch for #145100)

Fedora Core 3 Update: NetworkManager-0.3.3-1.cvs20050112.1.fc3
by Dan Williams
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-024
2005-01-17
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 3
Name : NetworkManager
Version : 0.3.3
Release : 1.cvs20050112.1.fc3
Summary : Network link manager and user applications
Description :
NetworkManager attempts to keep an active network connection available
at all
times. It is intended only for the desktop use-case, and is not
intended for
usage on servers. The point of NetworkManager is to make networking
configuration and setup as painless and automatic as possible. If using
DHCP,
NetworkManager is _intended_ to replace default routes, obtain IP
addresses
from a DHCP server, and change nameservers whenever it sees fit.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
This is a major version upgrade from 2.0.x to 2.2.x but it is designed
to be binary compatible in order that old plug-ins and scripts continue
to work.
Note that this new version will install a new .gimp-2.2 directory into
your home when running it for the first time. If you have customized
your settings you may have to re-do these changes in the
File/Preferences dialogue. If you have user-specific plug-ins or scripts
which are located beneath the old .gimp-2.0 directory you have to copy
them into the new directory to be able to use them.
