adduser (3.42) unstable; urgency=low

  * If --no-create-home is specified, adduser doesn't warn about an

    Closes: #101900.

adduser (3.37) unstable; urgency=medium

  * -h now does the same as --help. Closes: #98789.
  * make -C /var/yp is only called if adduser is run on a NIS server.
    Thanks to Herbert Xu and Miquel van Smoorenburg for their helpful
    tips on how to check this most reliable. Currently this is done
    everytime invalidate_nscd() is called which probably doesn't
    improve the performance a lot. :-/ I couldn't figure out if there
    are static variable (like in the C function scope), and using a
    global variable is not optimal either. We have too much of that old
    cruft anyway which should be cleaned up. Should be improved later.
    Closes: #97981.

 -- Roland Bauerschmidt <rb@debian.org>  Sun, 27 May 2001 20:34:00 -0500

adduser (3.35) unstable; urgency=low

  * Removed unnecessary dependency on perl since perl-base should be
    sufficient. Thanks to Joey Hess for pointing that out. I suspect 
    we need a versioned dependency on perl-base though since older
    perl versions don't look in /usr/share/perl5.
  * Updated usage text for --shell and --disabled-login options.

 -- Roland Bauerschmidt <rb@debian.org>  Sun,  6 May 2001 16:16:06 -0500

adduser (3.34) unstable; urgency=low

  * Temporary fix for French translation to display [y/n] instead of
    [o/n] when asking if chfn information is correct since the yes
    thing is hard-coded at the moment. At the moment the best solution
    I can think of would be having a "yes" and "no" in the .po files
    and grabbing the first letter to generate [o/n] for French e.g.
    Closes: #87596.
  * Added Romanian translation of Debconf translates. Closes: #93601.
  * Added a sentence to Debconf template homedir-permission that it
    only affects users added later, and syncronised the German template
    for this change. Closes: #88292.
  * Adduser now understands --shell to override the login shell specified
    in the configuration file. adduser.8 is updated, too.
  * Added new options --disabled-login which does what
    --disabled-password previously did. --disabled-password not sets the
    password to '*' in the shadow file and thus logins via SSH RSA keys
    e.g. are still possible. Closes: #77817.
  * Got rid of bashism in debian/rules

adduser (3.29) unstable; urgency=low

  * /etc/adduser.conf is not marked as a conffile anymore. Instead, it
    is moved to /usr/share/doc/adduser/examples/adduser.conf and will
    be copied in postinst if it does not exist already.
  * Fixed another error in postinst when receiving the status if DIR_MODE
    was changed in /etc/adduser.conf.
  * Debconf template now talks about "system wide readable homedirs",
    instead of world-wide ones. This description is more appropriate.
    Closes: #81812
  * Added German translation for the Debconf template.
  * Added explaination to adduser.8 that if invoked with --system and
    the given parameters match with the password file, adduser exists
    silently. Closes: #81300.

adduser (3.25) unstable; urgency=high

  * adduser: checks for nscd in /usr/bin/nscd and /usr/sbin/nscd.
  * adduser: nscd is invoked with system instead of systemcall, thus
    adduser doesn't clean up in case nscd returned an error. Closes: #77927.
  * adduser: if invoked with --system and the uid is correct, adduser
    exits silently and thus makes it easier for postinsts to make sure
    that there will be a user with correct parameters. Closes: #79371.
  * deluser: security bug for option REMOVE_ALL_FILES fixed. rm was
    invoked insecurely, like system("rm $files"). rm is no longer used to
    delete files, but they are directly unlink()ed. Closes: #79526.
  * deluser: external find call for searching for the users files when
    using REMOVE_ALL_FILES is replaced through File::Find::find()
  * deluser: insecure calling of tar fixed. This was the same problem as
    with rm.

adduser (3.14) unstable; urgency=low

  * adduser has a better handling for nscd now. Instead of simply

    adduser invalidates the caches before and after changes now.

  * deluser invalidates nscd caches after changes, too.
  * new Portugese/Brazilian translation for adduser and deluser by
    Cesar Eduardo Barros <cesarb@nitnet.com.br>
  * adding and removing users to/from a group is now done with gpasswd

adduser (2.10) unstable; urgency=medium

  * These are severe changes to adduser. Please test before using!
  * Manpage adduser.8 updated to describe the purpose of /usr/local/sbin/adduser.local
  * Add --gecos and --passwd option for adduser
  * Add --uid and --gid options for adduser and addgroup
  * Add a script called adduserperm to set up the permissions on who can
    create new users.
  * Bug: addgroup left the password field in /etc/group empty.
  * Added deluser and delgroup scripts. Very primitive right now.
