Fix lintian warning "build-depends-on-obsolete-package"
Apparently, pkg-config is deprecated in favor of pkgconf:
<https://bugs.debian.org/1020799>,
<http://pkgconf-migration.debian.net/>
Therefore, prefer pkgconf in the build dependencies.
* debian/control (Source: mandos/Build-Depends): Change "pkg-config"
to "pkgconf | pkg-config".

Version 1.8.17 (2024-09-12)
5
* Improve documentation slightly, especially how to add extra options
6
to mandos-client when using dracut with systemd.
7
* Make life easier for distribution packagers by making sure that
8
"make install" creates all required directories.
9
* Server
10
** When seeing clients.conf entries lacking both fingerprint and
11
key_id, show a warning and ignore them instead of crashing,
12
* Client
13
** Suppress most spurious compiler warnings.
14
** Use 64-bit time.
15
** In initramfs-tools-hook, be aware of new name of GPGME library,
16

17
** In password-agent(8mandos), look for a Plymouth process in
18
alphabetical order, not in reverse alphabetical order. This is
19
technically a user-visible change, but should never matter in
20
practice.
21
22
Version 1.8.16 (2023-02-08)
23
* Server
24
** Bug fix: Start client checkers after a random delay
25
26
Version 1.8.15 (2022-04-25)
27
* Server
28
** Bug fix: When running "mandos-keygen --password" to read a password

63
* No user-visible changes
64
65
Version 1.8.8 (2019-08-18)
66
* No user-visible changes
67
68
Version 1.8.7 (2019-08-05)
69
* Client:
70
** Always compile with LFS (Large File Support) enabled.
71
* Server
72
** Improve intro(8mandos) manual page to cover dracut(8) support.
73
74
Version 1.8.6 (2019-08-03)
75
* Client:
76
** dracut support: In password-agent, properly ignore deleted and
77
renamed question files, and also fix memory alignment issue.
78
79
Version 1.8.5 (2019-07-30)
80
* Client
81
** Support dracut(8) as well as initramfs-tools(7).
82
** Minor bug fix: Allow the mandos-keygen --passfile option to use

88
was used. This has been fixed.

91
92
Version 1.8.4 (2019-04-09)
93
* Client
94
** Fix minor memory leak in plugin-runner.
95
* Server
96
** mandos-ctl now has a --debug option to show D-Bus calls.
97
98
Version 1.8.3 (2019-02-11)
99
* No user-visible changes.
100
101
Version 1.8.2 (2019-02-10)
102
* Client
103
** In mandos-keygen, ignore failures to remove files in some cases.
104
105
Version 1.8.1 (2019-02-10)
106
* Client
107
** Only generate TLS keys using GnuTLS' certtool, of sufficient
108
version. Key generation of TLS keys will not happen until a
109
version of GnuTLS is installed with support for raw public keys.
110
** Remove any bad keys created by 1.8.0 and openssl.
111
* Server
112
** On installation, edit clients.conf and remove the same bad key ID
113
which was erroneously reported by all 1.8.0 clients. Also do not
114
trust this key ID in the server.
115
116
Version 1.8.0 (2019-02-10)
117
* Client
118
** Use new TLS keys for server communication and identification.
119
With GnuTLS 3.6 or later, OpenPGP keys are no longer supported.
120
The client can now use the new "raw public keys" (RFC 7250) API
121
instead, using GnuTLS 3.6.6. Please note: This *requires* new key
122
IDs to be added to server's client.conf file.
123
** New --tls-privkey and --tls-pubkey options to load TLS key files.
124
If GnuTLS is too old, these options do nothing.
125
* Server
126
** Supports either old or new GnuTLS.
127
The server now supports using GnuTLS 3.6.6 and clients connecting
128
with "raw public keys" as identification. The server will read
129
both fingerprints and key IDs from clients.conf file, and will use
130
either one or the other, depending on what is supported by GnuTLS
131
on the system. Please note: both are *not* supported at once; if
132
one type is supported by GnuTLS, all values of the other type from
133
clients.conf are ignored.
134
135
Version 1.7.20 (2018-08-19)
136
* Client
137
** Fix: Adapt to the Debian cryptsetup package 2.0.3 or later.
138
Important: in that version or later, the plugins "askpass-fifo",
139
"password-prompt", and "plymouth" will no longer be run, since they
140
would conflict with what cryptsetup is doing. Other plugins, such
141
as mandos-client and any user-supplied plugins, will still run.
142
** Better error message if failing to decrypt secret data
143
** Check for (and report) any key import failure from GPGME
144
** Better error message if self-signature verification fails
145
** Set system clock if not set; required by GnuPG for key import
146
** When debugging plugin-runner, it will now show starting plugins
147
148
Version 1.7.19 (2018-02-22)
149
* Client
150
** Do not print "unlink(...): No such file or directory".
151
** Bug fixes: Fix file descriptor leaks.
152
** Bug fix: Don't use leak sanitizer with leaking libraries.
153
154

* Client
236
** Bug fix: Tolerate errors from configure_networking (Debian Bug
237
#816513)
238
** Compilation: Only use sanitizing options which work with the
239
compiler used when building. This should fix compilation with GCC
240
4.9 on mips, mipsel, and s390x.
241
* Server
242
** Add extra security restrictions in systemd service file.
243

249
250
Version 1.7.2 (2016-02-28)
251
* Server
252
** Stop using python-gnutls library; it was not updated to GnuTLS 3.3.
253

257
258
Version 1.7.1 (2015-10-24)
259
* Client
260
** Bug fix: Can now really find Mandos server even if the server has
261
an IPv6 address on a network other than the one which the Mandos
262
server is on.
263
264
Version 1.7.0 (2015-08-10)
265

268
** Bug fix: Fix systemd service file to start server correctly.
269
** Bug fix: Be compatible with old 2048-bit DSA keys.
270
** The D-Bus API now provides the standard D-Bus ObjectManager
271
interface, and deprecates older functionality. See the DBUS-API
272
file for the currently recommended API. Note: the original API
273
still works, but is deprecated.
274
* Client
275
** Can now find Mandos server even if the server has an IPv6 address
276
on a network without IPv6 Router Advertisment (like if the Mandos
277
client itself is the router, or there is an IPv6 router advertising
278
a network other than the one which the Mandos server is on.)
279
** Use a better value than 1024 for the default number of DH bits.
280
This better value is either provided by a DH parameters file (see
281
below) or an appropriate number of DH bits is determined based on
282
the PGP key.
283
** Bug fix: mandos-keygen now generates correct output for the
284
"Checker" variable even if the SSH server on the Mandos client has
285
multiple SSH key types.
286
** Can now use pre-generated Diffie-Hellman parameters from a file.
287
288
Version 1.6.9 (2014-10-05)
289
* Server
290
** Changed to emit standard D-Bus signal when D-Bus properties change.
291
(The old signal is still emitted too, but marked as deprecated.)

294
* Client
295
** Bug fix: mandos-keygen now generates working SSH checker commands.
296
* Server
297

308
* Client
309
** If client host has an SSH server, "mandos-keygen --password" now
310
outputs "checker" option which uses "ssh-keyscan"; this is more
311
secure than the default "fping" checker.
312

313
** Better error messages.
314

336
specifies, like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mandos or
337
/usr/lib64/mandos.

341
** PID file moved from /var/run to /run.
342

both old DSA/ELG 2048-bit keys and new RSA/RSA 4096-bit keys.
345
* Client
346
** mandos-keygen: Bug fix: now generate RSA keys which GnuTLS can use.
347
Bug fix: Output passphrase prompts even when
348
redirecting standard output.
349
350
Version 1.6.1 (2013-10-13)
351
* Server
352
** All client options for time intervals now also take an RFC 3339
353
duration. The same for all options to mandos-ctl.
354
** Bug fix: Handle fast checkers (like ":") correctly.
355
** Bug fix: Don't print output from checkers when running in
356
foreground.
357
** Bug fix: Do not fail when client is removed from clients.conf but
358
saved settings remain.
359

360
using new version of Urwid.
361

363
** New default priority string to be slightly more compatible with
364
older versions of GnuTLS.
365
* Client
366
** Bug fix: Fix bashism in mandos-keygen.
367
** Default key and subkey types are now RSA and RSA, respectively.
368
Also, new default key size is 4096 bits.
369
370
Version 1.6.0 (2012-06-18)
371
* Server
372
** Takes new --foreground option
373
** Init script supports new "status" action.
374
* Client
375
** Now uses all interfaces by default; the --interface option can
376
still be used to restrict it, and the argument to --interface (as
377
well as the $DEVICE environment variable for the network hooks) is
378
now a comma-separated list of interfaces to use.
379
380
Version 1.5.5 (2012-06-01)
381
* Server
382
** Server takes new --socket option

395
396
Version 1.5.3 (2012-01-15)
397
* Server
398
** Add D-Bus property se.recompile.Client.LastCheckerStatus and use it
399
in mandos-monitor.
400
* Client
401
** Fix bugs in the example "bridge" network hook.
402
403
Version 1.5.2 (2012-01-08)
404
* Server
405
** Removed D-Bus signal se.recompile.Mandos.NewRequest() added in

408
Version 1.5.1 (2012-01-01)
409
* Server
410
** Include intro(8mandos) manual page, missing since migration from

412
413
Version 1.5.0 (2012-01-01)
414
* Client
415
** Network hooks. The Mandos client can now run custom scripts to take
416
up a network interface before the client is run. Three example
417
scripts are provided: "wireless", "openvpn", and "bridge".
418
To facilitate this, the client now prefers network interfaces which
419
are up (if any) over all other interfaces.
420
* Server
421
** Persistent state. Client state is now saved between server
422
restarts.
423
** clients.conf file can now contain "enabled" setting for clients.
424
** Bug fix: Fix rare crash bug.
425
** Bug fix: Send corrent D-Bus type in PropertyChanged for
426
"ApprovalDelay", "ApprovalDuration", "Timeout", and
427
"ExtendedTimeout".
428
** mandos-ctl: Bare numbers as arguments are taken to be milliseconds.
429
** Bug fix: mandos-ctl --secret option now works.
430
