4 >        Sudo 1.7.2p6 imported
5  
6 + 20100321:
7 +        Update zlib to 1.2.4
8 +
9 + 20100319:
10 +        Removed i586 from default i386 generic kernel.
11 +
12 + 20100317:
13 +        Update to tzdata2010e (time zones).  This includes changes in
14 +        Mexico.
15 +
16 +        Add support for several newer sound cards via hda including
17 +        ATI and Realtek chipsets.
18 +
19 + 20100313:
20 +        CPU detection has been changed.  VIA Padlock detection added.
21 +
22 + 20100312:
23 +        Fix a number of bugs and compiler warnings in libmport. Handle
24 +        plus signs in paths for mport.check-fake
25 +
26 + 20100311:
27 +        mksh R39c
28 +
29 + 20100309:
30 +        Sudo 1.7.2p5
31 +
32 +        sqlite3 3.6.23
33 +
34 +        mksh R39b
35 +
36 +        libffi (ffi) 3.0.9
37 +
38 + 20100206:
39 +        WITHOUT_LIB32 is no longer needed on AMD64.  GCC was fixed to
40 +        properly pass arguments to ld.
41 +
42 +        re(4) and rl(4) have been updated to support several new
43 +        realtek chipsets.  Performance has been improved on re(4).
44 +
45 + 20100204:
46 +        Fix a bug cropping up on AMD64 MidnightBSD with sftp
47 +        segfaulting.  
48 +
49 + 20100116:
50 +        Import ash changes from FreeBSD (bin/sh) 8-Stable.
51 +
52 +        BIND 9.6.1-P2
53 +
54 + 20100110:
55 +        Import Sendmail 8.14.4. Fix for SSL vulnerability.
56 +
57 +        posix_spawn(3) added to MidnightBSD libc.  Users may need to build and
58 +        install libc before doing a full buildworld when upating from 0.2 or
59 +        older current systems.
60 +
61 +        kqueue(2) was modified to support portions of libdispatch functionality.
62 +
63 + 20100106:
64 +        Bind security update.  Fix a bug with DNSSEC that causes negative
65 +        cache entries and thus a possible DNS cache poisoning attack.
66 +
67 +        Fix a bug in ZFS that can reset permissions on system crashes.
68 +
69 + 20091228:
70 +        amdtemp(4) was added.  It allows one to monitor to the temperature
71 +        of an AMD CPU such as a Phenom.
72 +
73 + 20091205:
74 +        OpenSSL security fix
75 +
76 +        The SSL version 3 and TLS protocols support session renegotiation without
77 +        cryptographically tying the new session parameters to the old parameters.
78 +
79 + 20091128:
80 +        OpenBSD sensors framework imported including sensorsd(8)
81 +
82 + 20091126:
83 +        OpenNTPD 4.4 import
84 +
85 +        Update OpenSSH to 5.3p1
86 +
87 +        mksh R39
88 +
89 + 20091124:
90 +        cpdup updated from DragonFly to 1.15
91 +
92 +        tzdata2009s updated with latest timezone data for November 2009.
93 +
94 + 20091010:
95 +        amd64 users should use WITHOUT_LIB32=yes in /etc/make.conf for now
96 +        to test current.
97 +
98 +        Revert unicode filename fixes from ntfs code.  This was causing chaos
99 +        on amd64 systems.
100 +
101 + 20091006:
102 +        Update timezone data with tzdata2009n with the Pakistan and
103 +        Argentina changes.
104 +
105 +        Sync several userland utilities with versions from FreeBSD 7.0 in
106 +        sbin and usr.sbin.
107 +
108 + 20090919:
109 +        Update timezone data with tzdate2009m from September 2009.
110 +
111 + 20090729:
112 +        Patch for Bind 9 security vulnerability. a dynmaic update packet
113 +        can trigger an assertion and cause named to exit
114 +
115 + 20090606:
116 +        Remove PCC from the base system.  This compiler will not work
117 +        as a system compiler for us as we've got some userland investment
118 +        in C++ code and may have Objective-C in the future.  We're stuck
119 +        with a solution that supports these three languages at a minimum.
120 +
121 +        I had wanted to keep it as an optional compiler because it is
122 +        fast, however too many users want to try to use it for the base
123 +        system which makes no sense.
124 +
125 +        A hack was added for Cypress based usb hard drive enclosures to
126 +        the kernel.  This should cut down on commands it claims to support
127 +        but does not (at the cam layer).  Found while testing ZFS on
128 +        an external device.
129 +
130 + 20090520:
131 +        The powerd daemon no longer starts automatically to improve
132 +        compatibility with many systems.  However, there is a new
133 +        installer option in the startup section to enable it. This
134 +        makes it easier to enable for users that have working systems. I                thought it was only a problem on older hardware, but it freaks
135 +        out my new Phenom too.
136 +
137 + 20090502:
138 +        OpenSSH 5.2p1 import
139 +
140 +        ale(4) connected to the build. (kernel module only)
141 +
142 + 20090501:
143 +        Imported makefs utility from NetBSD/FreeBSD
144 +
145 + 20090422:
146 +        OpenSSL security update
147 +
148 +        The function ASN1_STRING_print_ex does not properly validate the lengths
149 + of BMPString or UniversalString objects before attempting to print them.
150 +
151 + 20090415:
152 +        Created a Symbol.map for libc/ohash symbols
153 +
154 +        Updated several usr/bin usr/sbin utilities.
155 +
156 +        Corrected a bug with Makefile.inc1 causing the bootstrap
157 +        tools to fail.
158 +
159 + 20090405:
160 +        xorg 7.4 wants to configure its input devices via hald which does not
161 +        yet work with USB. If the keyboard/mouse does not work in xorg then
162 +        add
163 +                Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off"
164 +        to your ServerLayout section.  This will cause X to use the configured
165 +        kbd and mouse sections from your xorg.conf
166 +
167 + 20090403:
168 +        mksh was disconnected a few day ago do to bugs with
169 +        buildworld and mports.  Now, connect it back
170 +        for use as /bin/sh with a conditional called
171 +        MK_ASH.  By default, ash is the standard /bin/sh
172 +        but we may change this later.  This will allow further
173 +        testing by users and developers of mksh without
174 +        causing an unpleasant default experience.  In the
175 +        long run, we need to fix mksh compatibility.
176 +
177 + 20090328:
178 +        Bring in mksh R37 from CVS. The dot.mkshrc files for root
179 +        and skel were changed.  mksh(1) now replaces ash aka sh(1)
180 +        as the default /bin/sh.  Please report bugs with
181 +        ports, etc. The ash code will remain in the repo for awhile
182 +        as I decide if we'll add something like MK_SHELL_ASH as
183 +        an optional build parameter.  
184 +
185 +        ahd was disconnected from the lint environment until
186 +        the compiler bug is sorted (by updating gcc?)
187 +
188 +        Remove freebsd-tips from fortune files and change the
189 +        default for login and profile.
190 +
191 + 20090327:
192 +        Update libarchive to 2.5.5, tar, and add bsdcpio.
193 +
194 +        Also previously, ctriv has been connecting Perl 5.10
195 +        to the build (part of os).  This will have an impact
196 +        on mports.
197 +
198 + 20090325:
199 +        Update Bind to 9.4.3-P1
200 +
201 +        Update mksh to R36b
202 +
203 +        Update tcpdump to 3.9.8, fix libpcap to work with current.
204 +
205 +        Update pnpinfo, sync with FreeBSD.
206 +
207 + 20090115:
208 +        Fix a problem with DNSSEC and BIND.
209 +
210 + 20090110:
211 +        For applications using OpenSSL for SSL connections, an invalid SSL
212 +        certificate may be interpreted as valid.  This could for example be
213 +        used by an attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack.
214 +
215 +        Other applications which use the OpenSSL EVP API may similarly be
216 +        affected.
217 +
218 +        Stop cross site request forgery attacks in lukemftpd
219 +
220 + 20090104:
221 +        Import GNU libreadline 5.2
222 +
223 + 20090101:
224 +        Update time zone data to 2008i.
225 +
226   20081231:
227          Correct a problem where bluetooth and netgraph sockets are not
228          properly initialized.
