I agree that it's late to do more than fix critical bugs for squeeze.
Fortunately, there is just this one critical bug and Julien has
provided the two small-ish changesets to fix it.

Perhaps we could target this fix for squeeze release and your larger
backport for a later time?

Regards,

Bug#598135: Forwarding articles to moderators is broken

2010-09-26 Thread Julien ÉLIE

Package: inn2
Version: 2.5.2-2
Severity: serious
Tags: patch, fixed-upstream


nnrpd wrongly updates the Path: header field when an article posted
to a moderated newsgroup is forwarded to a moderator.  It adds the
".POSTED" diagnostic whereas it should not.

As a consequence, the article is rejected after being moderated
by an external system that does not strip the Path: header, because
nnrpd thinks it has already been injected into the news system.

It is a behaviour that needs fixing in the stable Debian release.
It violates a MUST from RFC 5537 (point 9 of Section 3.5).


Two patches from upstream:

Bug#598135: Forwarding articles to moderators is broken / FTBFS

Hi again.  I did a little digging for the FTBFS (#599966) and
subsequently realized it only affects sid, so it's not required to
release squeeze.  Moreover, the current sid version of inn2
build-depends on libdb5.0-dev, which no longer exists in unstable (was
replaced by 5.1) and was never in testing.  So, rather than get mixed up
in a libdb transition (if there is one), what do you think about uploading
a fix for #598135 targeted only for testing that drops back to libdb 4.8?

Cheers,
-Steve

I fear that it's too late now to get in squeeze everything I wanted,
my plan was to make a backport and hope for the next point release.

Hi Steve,


Julien: have there been any more patches upstream for the moderator
issue in addition to the two you pointed to?


The two mentioned patches completely solve the issue.




So, rather than get mixed up
in a libdb transition (if there is one), what do you think about uploading
a fix for #598135 targeted only for testing that drops back to libdb 4.8?


As a new upload is planned, I also suggest the following fixes:

 Bug fixes
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9095  (confusion between CR and LF)
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9097  (missing fields in overview)
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9103  (Tcl scripts not working)
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9112  (inncheck)
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9142  (Perl warning in cnfsstat)

 Documentation fixes
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9045  (remove inflow)
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9047  (URL update)
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9070  (libstorage)
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9072  (nntpsend)
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9098  (Perl and Python hooks)

   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9049  (link for Berkeley DB)
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9107  (link for Berkeley DB - bis)

 Samples fix
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9129  (alignment in inn.conf)

 Enhancement
   http://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9110  (related to #584234)



Feel free to take any patch you want.
(I only mention here the patches useful for Squeeze.  For instance, I have
a patch specific to Perl 5.12.1, so it is useless for Squeeze with Perl 5.10.x.)


Have a nice week,
