3 > 20110930:
4 >        Introduce quirks handling for several umass devices including
5 >        USB cameras.  Add workaround for Cyberpower UPS devices.
6  
7 +        Bring in further bug fixes from FreeBSD and NetBSD for alc(4).
8 +        Stale ip/tcp header pointers are no longer used, lockups fixed
9 +        when network cable is unplugged on bootup, enable TX checksum
10 +        offloading.
11 +
12 +        Add a new man page for gcache(8), a useful geom class when
13 +        working with large raid3 sets.
14 +
15 +        Restore previous workaround for Cypress pata storage controller.
16 +
17 + 20110929:
18 +        Sync ath(4) with FreeBSD 7.3.
19 +
20 +        The following modules are no longer available, and should be
21 +        removed from loader.conf:
22 +        ath_hal ath_rate_amrr ath_rate_onoe ath_rate_sample
23 +
24 +        alc(4) would hibernate when a cable was unplugged and often
25 +        required bring the interface down and up to "wake up" so that
26 +        a connection could be established.  Disable hibernation.
27 +
28 + 20110928:
29 +        Fix security issues with gzip and compress related to .Z
30 +        files that are corrupted.
31 +
32 +        Fix path validation with unix domain sockets.
33 +
34 + 20110917:
35 +        Remove dependance on mports perl for generating releases as
36 +        it's in the base system.
37 +
38 + 20110914:
39 +        Import xz 5.0.3 with liblzma 5.0.3
40 +
41 + 20110813:
42 +        synced the sparc64 GENERIC kernel configuration with amd64.
43 +
44 + 20110806:
45 +        sqlite 3.7.7.1 imported
46 +
47 +        msearch(1), libmsearch and msearch.import added.  msearch(1) provides
48 +        a full text search command line tool.  libmsearch can also be used
49 +        to build a graphical based search in the future. You can enable
50 +        index building for msearch in periodic.conf or manually run the
51 +        /usr/libexec/msearch.index tool.  Full text indexes take considerable
52 +        space in /var.  I'm using approximately 500MB currently.
53 +
54 +        Fix a long standing bug with the periodic script to check package
55 +        versions.  This will be obsolete with mport though.
56 +
57 + 20110710:
58 +        kdb_enter_why added to MidnightBSD to allow the kernel debugger to
59 +        know why it's in use and thus script can be run.
60 +
61 +        Yet another problem with the perl manifest was fixed
62 +
63 + 20110709:
64 +        cpufreq(1) is a new utility to monitor CPU frequency which may change
65 +        with use of powerd(8) and cpufreq(4).
66 +
67 + 20110612:
68 +        Update mksh to R40
69 +
70 +        Catch up ObsoleteFiles.inc to remove Perl 5.10.x.  Good to run when
71 +        updating current (cd /usr/src && make check-old)
72 +
73 + 20110528:
74 +        Fix CVE-2011-1910 in BIND 9.6.x.  This affects caching resolvers.
75 +
76 + 20110526:
77 +        newfs:
78 +        Raised the default blocksize for UFS/FFS filesystems from
79 +        16K to 32K and the default fragment size from 2K to 4K.
80 +
81 +        This should slightly imporve performance on "advanced format"
82 +        hard drives such as the WD EARS drives. Drives of this type
83 +        have emulation modes that slow down with lower sizes.  Of course
84 +        the drive must still be aligned properly when using fdisk.
85 +
86 + 20110521:
87 +        mport tool now has a deleteall command.  This can be used to remove
88 +        all packages from a system.
89 +
90 +        A few bugs with the perl 5.14 import have been fixed.
91 +
92 + 20110518:
93 +        Perl 5.14.0
94 +
95 + 20110517:
96 +        Sendmail 8.14.5
97 +
98 + 20110314:
99 +        DRM/DRI code updated to support newer video cards. (FreeBSD 7.1)
100 +
101 +        cdevpriv wrappers added
102 +
103 +        nss_mdns hack introduced to work around linking problem.
104 +
105 +        dnsextd fixed after update to mDNSResponder code.
106 +
107 + 20110308:
108 +        Introduce liblzma & xz 5.0.1 to the base system
109 +
110 +        Patch for OpenSSL security issue CVE-2011-0014.
111 +
112 +        "OSREVISION 4004"
113 +
114 +        nsswitch module for multicast dns (nss_mdns) added.
115 +
116 +        tzdata2011c
117 +
118 + 20110220:
119 +        cam(4) syncronized with FreeBSD 7.3.
120 +
121 + 20110219:
122 +        amdtemp(4) updated to support sensors framework.
123 +
124 + 20110217:
125 +        Perl 5.10.1 imported
126 +
127 + 20110216:
128 +        Introduce igb(4) and split Intel Gigabit Ethernet adapters between
129 +        igb(4) and em(4).  Newer devices use igb(4).  The code has moved
130 +        to sys/dev/e1000 for both devices in the kernel. igb(4) has
131 +        been placed in GENERIC on i386 and amd64.
132 +
133 +        Update bfe(4) to support newer devices and WOL.
134 +
135 + 20110215:
136 +        age(4) added.
137 +
138 + 20110208:
139 +        BIND 9.6.3 which fixes a bug with DNSSEC records getting added.
140 +
141 + 20110206:
142 +        eeemon(4) added to monitor Asus Eee PC.
143 +
144 + 20110205:
145 +        OpenSSH 5.7p1
146 +
147 +        GNU sort 6.9 (coreutils)
148 +
149 + 20110203:
150 +        one true awk 20100523 imported
151 +
152 +        sqlite 3.7.5
153 +
154 +        OpenSSL 0.9.8q
155 +
156 + 20110202:
157 +        tcsh 6.17.00
158 +
159 +        file 5.05
160 +
161 + 20110122:
162 +        Import it(4) and lm(4), with support for Super I/O hardware monitors. This
163 +        uses the sensors framework ported by Constantine A. Murenin (GSOC2007)
164 +
165 + 20110120:
166 +        BIND 9.6.2-P3
167 +
168 +        sudo 1.7.4-p6
169 +
170 + 20110115:
171 +        Add experimental jme(4) for Jmicron ethernet devices.
172 +
173 + 20101130:
174 +        A double free exists in the SSL client ECDH handling code, when
175 +        processing specially crafted public keys with invalid prime
176 +        numbers. [CVE-2010-2939]
177 +
178 + 20101120:
179 +        Several portions of the kernel and userland code related to UFS file
180 +        systems (and UFS2) cannot properly handle inode counts above 2^31 due
181 +        to use of int types.  Based on a patch from FreeBSD, I've modified
182 +        our UFS2 implementation to handle unsigned values for inode counts
183 +        which should allow for file systems greater than 16TB.
184 +
185 +        newfs and growfs was also modified.
186 +
187 + 20101110:
188 +        Fix a security issue with pseudofs which could result in running code in kernel
189 +        context or a kernel panic depending on system configuration.  This affects file
190 +        systems such as procfs for instance.
191 +
192 + 20101021:
193 +        sysrc is a utility to print and modify name/value pairs in /etc/rc.conf easily.
194 +        This is similar to functions present in many linux distros. The utility was
195 +        written by Devin Teske for FreeBSD.
196 +
197 + 20100920:
198 +        bzip2 security patch for integer overflow.
199 +
200 + 20100905:
201 +        MidnightBSD RELENG_0_3 branch created.  Aggressive development continues here
202 +        for 0.4.
203 +
204 + 20100902:
205 +        Fix a security issue with libutil that allows users to bypass cpu limits in
206 +        login.conf in some cases.  This combined with OpenSSH for example can allow
207 +        the user to get more resources than they're allowed.
208 +
209 + 20100822:
210 +        Import Apple's mDNSResponder (mdnsd).
211 +
212 + 20100814:
213 +        libdispatch added to MidnightBSD.  This provides functionality found in
214 +        Mac OS X's GCD.  We do not have blocks support yet.  As this code is
215 +        licensed under Apache 2, we create a new MK_APACHE option so that
216 +        it's not required for all users to run code under a license they
217 +        may not like.
218 +
219 + 20100713:
220 +        mbuf readonly fix related to sendfile(2) data corruption.
221 +
222 + 20100704:
223 +        brainfuck(1) imported from MirBSD.
224 +
225 + 20100505:
226 +        zlib 1.2.5
227 +
228 + 20100430:
229 +        Sudo 1.7.2p6 imported
230 +
231 + 20100321:
232 +        Update zlib to 1.2.4
233 +
234 + 20100319:
235 +        Removed i586 from default i386 generic kernel.
236 +
237 + 20100317:
238 +        Update to tzdata2010e (time zones).  This includes changes in
239 +        Mexico.
240 +
241 +        Add support for several newer sound cards via hda including
242 +        ATI and Realtek chipsets.
243 +
244 + 20100313:
245 +        CPU detection has been changed.  VIA Padlock detection added.
246 +
247 + 20100312:
248 +        Fix a number of bugs and compiler warnings in libmport. Handle
249 +        plus signs in paths for mport.check-fake
250 +
251 + 20100311:
252 +        mksh R39c
253 +
254 + 20100309:
255 +        Sudo 1.7.2p5
256 +
257 +        sqlite3 3.6.23
258 +
259 +        mksh R39b
260 +
261 +        libffi (ffi) 3.0.9
262 +
263 + 20100206:
264 +        WITHOUT_LIB32 is no longer needed on AMD64.  GCC was fixed to
265 +        properly pass arguments to ld.
266 +
267 +        re(4) and rl(4) have been updated to support several new
268 +        realtek chipsets.  Performance has been improved on re(4).
269 +
270 + 20100204:
271 +        Fix a bug cropping up on AMD64 MidnightBSD with sftp
272 +        segfaulting.  
273 +
274 + 20100116:
275 +        Import ash changes from FreeBSD (bin/sh) 8-Stable.
276 +
277 +        BIND 9.6.1-P2
278 +
279 + 20100110:
280 +        Import Sendmail 8.14.4. Fix for SSL vulnerability.
281 +
282 +        posix_spawn(3) added to MidnightBSD libc.  Users may need to build and
283 +        install libc before doing a full buildworld when upating from 0.2 or
284 +        older current systems.
285 +
286 +        kqueue(2) was modified to support portions of libdispatch functionality.
287 +
288 + 20100106:
289 +        Bind security update.  Fix a bug with DNSSEC that causes negative
290 +        cache entries and thus a possible DNS cache poisoning attack.
291 +
292 +        Fix a bug in ZFS that can reset permissions on system crashes.
293 +
294 + 20091228:
295 +        amdtemp(4) was added.  It allows one to monitor to the temperature
296 +        of an AMD CPU such as a Phenom.
297 +
298 + 20091205:
299 +        OpenSSL security fix
300 +
301 +        The SSL version 3 and TLS protocols support session renegotiation without
302 +        cryptographically tying the new session parameters to the old parameters.
303 +
304 + 20091128:
305 +        OpenBSD sensors framework imported including sensorsd(8)
306 +
307 + 20091126:
308 +        OpenNTPD 4.4 import
309 +
310 +        Update OpenSSH to 5.3p1
311 +
312 +        mksh R39
313 +
314 + 20091124:
315 +        cpdup updated from DragonFly to 1.15
316 +
317 +        tzdata2009s updated with latest timezone data for November 2009.
318 +
319 + 20091010:
320 +        amd64 users should use WITHOUT_LIB32=yes in /etc/make.conf for now
321 +        to test current.
322 +
323 +        Revert unicode filename fixes from ntfs code.  This was causing chaos
324 +        on amd64 systems.
325 +
326 + 20091006:
327 +        Update timezone data with tzdata2009n with the Pakistan and
328 +        Argentina changes.
329 +
330 +        Sync several userland utilities with versions from FreeBSD 7.0 in
331 +        sbin and usr.sbin.
332 +
333 + 20090919:
334 +        Update timezone data with tzdate2009m from September 2009.
335 +
336 + 20090729:
337 +        Patch for Bind 9 security vulnerability. a dynmaic update packet
338 +        can trigger an assertion and cause named to exit
339 +
340 + 20090606:
341 +        Remove PCC from the base system.  This compiler will not work
342 +        as a system compiler for us as we've got some userland investment
343 +        in C++ code and may have Objective-C in the future.  We're stuck
344 +        with a solution that supports these three languages at a minimum.
345 +
346 +        I had wanted to keep it as an optional compiler because it is
347 +        fast, however too many users want to try to use it for the base
348 +        system which makes no sense.
349 +
350 +        A hack was added for Cypress based usb hard drive enclosures to
351 +        the kernel.  This should cut down on commands it claims to support
352 +        but does not (at the cam layer).  Found while testing ZFS on
353 +        an external device.
354 +
355 + 20090520:
356 +        The powerd daemon no longer starts automatically to improve
357 +        compatibility with many systems.  However, there is a new
358 +        installer option in the startup section to enable it. This
359 +        makes it easier to enable for users that have working systems. I                thought it was only a problem on older hardware, but it freaks
360 +        out my new Phenom too.
361 +
362 + 20090502:
363 +        OpenSSH 5.2p1 import
364 +
365 +        ale(4) connected to the build. (kernel module only)
366 +
367 + 20090501:
368 +        Imported makefs utility from NetBSD/FreeBSD
369 +
370 + 20090422:
371 +        OpenSSL security update
372 +
373 +        The function ASN1_STRING_print_ex does not properly validate the lengths
374 + of BMPString or UniversalString objects before attempting to print them.
375 +
376 + 20090415:
377 +        Created a Symbol.map for libc/ohash symbols
378 +
379 +        Updated several usr/bin usr/sbin utilities.
380 +
381 +        Corrected a bug with Makefile.inc1 causing the bootstrap
382 +        tools to fail.
383 +
384 + 20090405:
385 +        xorg 7.4 wants to configure its input devices via hald which does not
386 +        yet work with USB. If the keyboard/mouse does not work in xorg then
387 +        add
388 +                Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off"
389 +        to your ServerLayout section.  This will cause X to use the configured
390 +        kbd and mouse sections from your xorg.conf
391 +
392 + 20090403:
393 +        mksh was disconnected a few day ago do to bugs with
394 +        buildworld and mports.  Now, connect it back
395 +        for use as /bin/sh with a conditional called
396 +        MK_ASH.  By default, ash is the standard /bin/sh
397 +        but we may change this later.  This will allow further
398 +        testing by users and developers of mksh without
399 +        causing an unpleasant default experience.  In the
400 +        long run, we need to fix mksh compatibility.
401 +
402 + 20090328:
403 +        Bring in mksh R37 from CVS. The dot.mkshrc files for root
404 +        and skel were changed.  mksh(1) now replaces ash aka sh(1)
405 +        as the default /bin/sh.  Please report bugs with
406 +        ports, etc. The ash code will remain in the repo for awhile
407 +        as I decide if we'll add something like MK_SHELL_ASH as
408 +        an optional build parameter.  
409 +
410 +        ahd was disconnected from the lint environment until
411 +        the compiler bug is sorted (by updating gcc?)
412 +
413 +        Remove freebsd-tips from fortune files and change the
414 +        default for login and profile.
415 +
416 + 20090327:
417 +        Update libarchive to 2.5.5, tar, and add bsdcpio.
418 +
419 +        Also previously, ctriv has been connecting Perl 5.10
420 +        to the build (part of os).  This will have an impact
421 +        on mports.
422 +
423 + 20090325:
424 +        Update Bind to 9.4.3-P1
425 +
426 +        Update mksh to R36b
427 +
428 +        Update tcpdump to 3.9.8, fix libpcap to work with current.
429 +
430 +        Update pnpinfo, sync with FreeBSD.
431 +
432 + 20090115:
433 +        Fix a problem with DNSSEC and BIND.
434 +
435 + 20090110:
436 +        For applications using OpenSSL for SSL connections, an invalid SSL
437 +        certificate may be interpreted as valid.  This could for example be
438 +        used by an attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack.
439 +
440 +        Other applications which use the OpenSSL EVP API may similarly be
441 +        affected.
442 +
443 +        Stop cross site request forgery attacks in lukemftpd
444 +
445 + 20090104:
446 +        Import GNU libreadline 5.2
447 +
448 + 20090101:
449 +        Update time zone data to 2008i.
450 +
451 + 20081231:
452 +        Correct a problem where bluetooth and netgraph sockets are not
453 +        properly initialized.
454 +
455 +        Happy 2009.
456 +
457 + 20081206:
458 +        Due to the massive change in the underlying system under way,
459 +        we're naming the next release 1.0.  The sys/sys/param.h was
460 +        changed accordingly.  ipfilter and ncurses were corrected
461 +        using __MidnightBSD__ tests in the code.  
462 +
463 +        The GENERIC kernel config was caught up on i386 today.  Consider
464 +        i386 still broken, but amd64 is running again.
465 +
466 +        mdoc.local was updated with the new MidnightBSD version info.
467 +
468 +        batt(1) was rewritten in C.  It now supports several flags and
469 +        runs about 8 times faster on my laptop.  The default output
470 +        shows the number of minutes of battery life remaining and the
471 +        percentage.  You can use -u to display the number of batteries or
472 +        -c to get script friendly output.  Consult the man page for more.
473 +
474 + 20081204:
475 +        Work has completed on importing ZFS, jemalloc, several
476 +        new devices, SCTP, updated pf, a new tempfs, linuxolator 2.6 kernel
477 +        support, improved locking for file desc., audit (openbsm),
478 +        openssl .98e, nfe, imporved intel high def audio, midi, updated
479 +        intel gigabit (em), support for several wifi cards (intel), ...
480 +
481 +        Renamed 0.3-CURRENT officially. Switched to using MidnightBSD version
482 +        data from param.h instead of the FreeBSD version.  This means
483 +        testing is now possible in the ports tree for the version
484 +        and that any ports or code relying on the FreeBSD version from
485 +        sys/sys/param.h will need to be fixed.
486 +
487 + 20080905:
488 +        update nve(4) to support new hardware.
489 +
490 + 20080801:
491 +        Import OpenBSM 1.0
492 +
493 +        Modify src/release to create 3 isos instead of 2 for packages.
494 +
495 +        etc/rc.d/firstboot now enables kdm, gnustep + slim and bsdstats.
496 +
497 +        Many ia64, alpha, powerpc items were removed.
498 +
499 +        The recent diffutils 2.8.7 import was fixed.
500 +
501 + 20080703:
502 +        pcc was not installed properly when setting DESTDIR for live cds,
503 +        or posibly jails.
504 +
505 + 20080627:
506 +        Add firmware(9), WEP, CCMP, TKIP to GENERIC.
507 +
508 +        Add glabel to GENERIC.
509 +
510 +        Intel ICH8 mobile chipset used on some iMacs included with ata.
511 +
512 +        pcc connected to the build on i386. (alternative compiler)
513 +
514 +        ath added to GENERIC.  (Atheros wireless NICs) on amd64/i386
515 +
516 + 20080528:
517 +        Sendmail 8.14.3
518 +
519 + 20080516:
520 +        ssh-vulnkey allows you to look for vulnerable ssh keys that
521 +        were generated on Debian and Ubuntu hosts over the last
522 +        few years.  sshd can block offending keys with a configuration
523 +        option.
524 +
525 +        The elf note on binaries is now set to MidnightBSD.
526 +
527 + 20080514:
528 +        Fixed a number of problems with pcc.  It is not yet connected
529 +        to the build, but usable on i386 hosts.  You may use it
530 +        by make; make install in /usr/src/usr.bin/pcc.  It will
531 +        install in /usr/local as some of the files conflict with
532 +        GCC versions. __MidnightBSD__ is defined in PCC as well.
533 +
534 +        System headers were fixed to allow pcc to compile many binaries
535 +        on MidnightBSD.  bin/cp will work now for instance.
536 +
537 + 20080430:
538 +        __MidnightBSD__ is now defined via gcc.  This can be tested
539 +        to determine we're running on MidnightBSD in the preprocessor.
540 +
541 + 20080429:
542 +        Import bind 9.4.2 with threading
543 +

548 +        Alias added for core2 cpus.
549 +
550 +        Alpha and PC98 only utilities removed from usr/sbin
551 +
552 +        syslogd, adduser, rmuser, mergemaster and mailwrapper have been
553 +        improved.  See the man pages for info.
554 +
555 +        periodic scripts will not send emails with empty message bodies.
556 +        See mailwrapper fix.
557 +
558 + 20080410:
559 +        Sync cpdup with DragonFly.  Add parallel transaction support and
560 +        -l flag to line-buffer stdout and stderr.
561 +

563 +        Import bzip2 1.05
564 +        Import OpenSSH 4.9p1
565 +
566 + 20080322:
567 +        The default umask was changed to 022.
568 +        
569 +        /usr/X11R6 paths were removed from several config files.
570 +
571 +        .mkshrc files are now installed for root.
572 +
573 + 20080316:
574 +        FIx a problem with gif0 tunnels and neighbors with IPV6.
575 +
576 + 20080312:
577 +        Add lndir from X.org.  This aides in the porting of MirPorts.
578 +
579 +        New OS versions were added to the mapage code (groff)
580 +
581 + 20080310:
582 +        Correct a buffer overflow in ppp.
583 +
584 + 20080308:
585 +        Remove /usr/X11R6 from manpath config.
586 +
587 + 20080307:
588 +        Atheros driver no longer has several options set
589 +        which corrects building in tinderbox on all three platforms.
590 +
591 +        Added a new macro to sx.h which returns true if the current
592 +        thread holds an exclusive lock on a specifix sx.
593 +
594 +        Removed OS/2's HPFS file system.   It's not maintained and
595 +        I don't know anyone using OS/2 or ecomstation these days.
596 +        My copy is in the closet collecting dust.
597 +
598 + 20080306:
599 +        Synced tinderbox with FreeBSD.  Modified it for MidnightBSD.
600 +        Developers can now use it to check src builds.
601 +

610 +        iso3166 file updated and import of tzdata2007k for
611 +        new time zones.
612 +
613 +        Updated mksh to latest version R33.
614 +
615 + 20080228:
616 +        Remplaced the random IP id generation code with a new
617 +        version by Amit Klein.
618 +

625 +
626 + 20080128:
627 +        Changed NTP configuration so that ips aren't cached
628 +        so multiple servers are used.
629 +
630 +        Fix an issue with fork() in libpthread.
631 +
632 + 20080121:
633 +        Add virtualization detection to set the HZ rate
634 +        according to a VM present.  VMWare and Parallels
635 +        should work better like this.
636 +
637 +        Change to full x11 install in sysinstall.  Add
638 +        xorg 7 support.
639 +
640 + 20080115:

649 + 20071123:
650 +        Update sendmail to 8.14.2
651 +
652 + 20071120:
653 +        Update system compiler to gcc 3.4.6.
654 +
655 + 20071023:
656 +        Updated mksh to R31d.
657 +
658 + 20070911:
659 +        Updated mksh to version R31b.
660 +
661 +        Fixed stderr output in libpthread.  Previously it was
662 +        written to stdout.
663 +
664 + 20070831:
665 +        Added dot.mkshrc file to support the recent change to
666 +        mksh from OpenBSD's ksh derived from pdksh.  
667 +
668 +        Added new firewall configuration.  ipfw is enabled by default
669 +        with a "desktop" configuration.  Consult /etc/rc.firewall
670 +        or ipfw show to see the ruleset used.  You can disable
671 +        ipfw by setting firewall_enable="NO" in /etc/rc.conf This
672 +        change only effects IPv4.  IPv6 does not have a firewall
673 +        enabled by default.
674 +
675 + 20070814:
676 +        Removed GNU tar source.  We've been using BSD tar
677 +        for awhile.
678 +
679 + 20070806:
680 +        Finished removing umapfs and autofs from the tree.
681 +
682 + 20070804:
683 +        BIND and Tcpdump have been patched for recent vulnerabilities.
684 +
685 +        We switched to BSD cpio (pax).
686 +
687 + 20070719:
688 +        Imported cpdup from DragonFly as /bin/cpdup
689 +
690 + 20070716:
691 +        Update GNU cpio to 2.8.
692 +
693 + 20070410:
694 +        cvs was updated to 1.12.13.  cvsbug was removed.
695 +        cvs now behaves similarly to DragonFly's cvs with
696 +        most of their local changes.  
697 +
698 + 20070409:
699 +        RELENG_0_1 was created. More aggresive changes will
700 +        continue here.
701 +
702 + 20070406:
703 +        Back out propolice.  propolice caused several problems
704 +        with our threading libraries libthr and libpthread.  
705 +        curthread was often NULL after the patch and many
706 +        multithreaded applications would crash.  We plan to
707 +        work on either bringing in gcc 4.1 or developing a new
708 +        patch which also corrects our threading issues later.
709 +
710 +        It is more important to have a stable system for our
711 +        mport work and other projects at this time.
712 +
713 +        This is not a clean removal.  It is recommended that you
714 +        have a recently SNAP CD handy.  You can either reinstall
715 +        or perform a make buildworld and make buildkernel and
716 +        make installkernel.  Reboot on the cd and copy the contents
717 +        of /bin, /sbin, /lib, /libexec, and /usr/bin, /usr/sbin,
718 +        /usr/lib, and /usr/libexec to the respective directories on
719 +        your disk.  Then you should be able to boot into single user
720 +        mode and run make installworld.  You will need to run
721 +        chflags noschg on some of the files if you can't overwrite
722 +        them.
723 +
724 +        You will get __guard missing errors since we had to remove
725 +        this from libc.
726 +
727 +        You will need to rebuild any ports built while propolice was
728 +        installed.
729 +
730 + 20070401:
731 +        Importing propolice into MidnightBSD. Propolice is going to
732 +        provide us with much greater security and stability in the
733 +        long run. If upgrading from a pre-propolice system, please
734 +        follow the these instructions:
735 +
736 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libc && make obj && make && make install
737 +        cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc && make obj && make && make install
738 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libpthread && make obj && make && make install
739 +        cd /usr/src/lib/libthr && make obj && make && make install
740 +        buildworld and kernel
741 +
742 +        It is adviced that any mports which were installed and/or built
743 +        prior to the propolice update also be updated. If any errors
744 +        or issue are encounted, please contact security@midnightbsd.org
745 +        and we will be sure to investigate and come up with an expeditious
746 +        fix.
747 +
748 + 20070314:
749 +        Remove send-pr from src.
750 +
751 +        Switch to NetBSD's gzip.
752 +
753 +        Bump MBSD minor revision.
754 +
755 + 20070313:
756 +        Imported OpenSSH 4.6p1.
757 +
758 +        Imported FreeBSD's libarchive and updated tar to work with it.
759 +
760 +        Disabled debug statements cluttering up /var/log/messages for
761 +        the tcp autobuf patch applied previously.
762 +
763 + 20070312:
764 +        Synced several audio changes from FreeBSD 6.1. Removed the
765 +        BSD Daemon files from src/share.  
766 +
767 + 20070308:
768 +        Added mfi which supports LSI Logic MegaRAID SAS devices including
769 +        the Dell perc5i.
770 +
771 + 20070206:
772 +        Imported OpenBSD's sudo into source. Please install
773 +        /usr/src/usr.bin/sudo/lib first before building.
774 +
775 +        Those who install from a snapshot after this date
776 +        will not be effected.
777 +
778 + 20070119:
779 +        Added audit group.  Be sure to add audit to your /etc/group file
780 +        before installing world.
781 +
782 +        hostapd was updated to 0.4.8.
783 +
784 +        An accidental commit in usr.sbin/bluetooth/hccontrol was fixed to
785 +        unbreak world.
786 +
787 +        wpa_supplicant was updated.
788 +
789 +        For stability and compatibility reasons, it was decided that MidnightBSD
790 +        sync with FreeBSD 6.1 Release.  Nearly every change between the original
791 +        fork date of February 24, 2006 and the release of FreeBSD 6.1 in May
792 +        2006 will be merged.  Beyond this, MidnightBSD will be a "real" fork and
793 +        will not sync every little change with FreeBSD.
794 +
795 + 20061231:
796 +        Updated COPYRIGHT for 2007.
797 +
798 +        Updated and bumped libutil after importing NetBSD efun(3) functions.
799 +
800 +        Added MidnightBSD_version and bumped the FreeBSD version as we've
801 +        synced all commits between the fork and that version.  It is now safe
802 +        to assume MidnightBSD is compatible with FreeBSD RELENG_6 from
803 +        Feb 26, 2006.
804 +
805 +        Added spell(1) and deroff(1) from NetBSD.  Also added additional
806 +        dict files to work with it. /usr/share/dict/american,
807 +        /usr/share/dict/british and /usr/share/dict/special/math
808 +
809 +        Numerous man page and bug fixes.
810 +
811   20061226:
812          Setup /usr/share/examples/cvsup SUPfiles for the new
813 <        MidnightBSD CVSup server.  
813 >        MidnightBSD CVSup server.
814  
815 +        Fix a bug in burncd where it would continue forever while
816 +        erasing CDRW media.
817 +
818 +        Add csup to /usr/bin.  csup is a CVSup replacement written
819 +        in C.
820 +
821 +        Fixed a bug with bsnmpd build from Oct 30.  
822 +
823 +        Corrected some race conditions and fixed a few bugs in
824 +        geom.  Imported changes from FreeBSD RELENG_6.
825 +
826   20061225:
827          Fixed a typo in src/lib/libc/sparc64/fpu/fpu_implode.c
828          that caused long double to long and long long
