Description:
libnss-mdns - NSS module for Multicast DNS name resolution
Closes: 353131 392590 393608 393711 399297
Changes:
nss-mdns (0.8-6.1ubuntu1) feisty; urgency=low
.
* Merge from Debian unstable; remaining Ubuntu changes:
- debian/postinst: Automatically transition the dapper default hosts: line
'files dns mdns' to the recommended value, since dns before mdns is
inefficient, a DNS server DoS, and an information leak.
.
nss-mdns (0.8-6.1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Non-maintainer upload to fix a long-standing RC bug and to beat the
package into shape before etch with suggestions from upstream; thanks
Lennart Poettering.
* Configure with --disable-legacy, as recommended by upstream for security
reasons; the legacy mode might be offered in a separate binary package for
the corner cases where it can be useful; see full discussion in #393711;
depend on avahi-daemon as nss-mdns will not work without avahi when
compiled like this; closes: #399297.
* Only suggest zeroconf instead of Recommending it: even if it can act as a
nice complement to nss-mdns, it is intrusive and orthogonal to nss-mdns
and conflicts with avahi-autoipd; closes: #353131, #392590.
* Suggest avahi-autoipd as an alternative to zeroconf.
* Remove offensive comments in postinst and README.Debian.
* Document the history of postinst snippets in debian/NOTES.Debian to permit
handling all upgrade paths.
* Depend on Perl for the postinst snippets using the perl interpreter.
* Rewrite postinst to handle all upgrade paths.
- Does not wipe NSS configuration which matches the upstream recommended
configuration during upgrades from versions 0.8-4.2 or 0.8-5;
closes: #393608.
- Install the upstream recommended configuration for first installs and
upgrades from versions which did not automatically insert mdns in the
NSS setup (unless mdns is already setup); closes: #393711.
- Keep configuration intact when upgrading from versions which installed
the upstream recommended configuration.
- Remove whitespaces added in upgrades from version 0.8-4.2 or 0.8-5 to
0.8-6.
- For upgrades from 0.8-6, attempt to revert the problematic "mdns_minimal
dns mdns" configuration and to install the upstream recommended
configuration.
* Update README.Debian to match the above changes and a planned changes in
avahi-daemon which should disable itself if a .local SOA is found after a
change in the DNS settings.
