- Use privoxy:privoxy for rotating the logfile

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec 26 08:16:16 UTC 2011 - andreas.stieger@gmx.de

- add rpm group to privoxy-doc package, fixing all builds
- remove name and version macros from patch references
- update to upstream 3.0.18:

- Bug fixes:
  - If a generated redirect URL contains characters RFC 3986 doesn't
    permit, they are (re)encoded. Not doing this makes Privoxy versions
    from 3.0.5 to 3.0.17 susceptible to HTTP response splitting (CWE-113)
    attacks if the +fast-redirects{check-decoded-url} action is used.
  - Fix a logic bug that could cause Privoxy to reuse a server
    socket after it got tainted by a server-header-tagger-induced
    block that was triggered before the whole server response had
    been read. If keep-alive was enabled and the request following
    the blocked one was to the same host and using the same forwarding
    settings, Privoxy would send it on the tainted server socket.
    While the server would simply treat it as a pipelined request,
    Privoxy would later on fail to properly parse the server's
    response as it would try to parse the unread data from the
    first response as server headers for the second one.
    Regression introduced in 3.0.17.
  - When implying keep-alive in client_connection(), remember that
    the client didn't. Fixes a regression introduced in 3.0.13 that
    would cause Privoxy to wait for additional client requests after
    receiving a HTTP/1.1 request with "Connection: close" set
    and connection sharing enabled.
    With clients which terminates the client connection after detecting
    that the whole body has been received it doesn't really matter,
    but with clients that don't the connection would be kept open until
    it timed out.
  - Fix a subtle race condition between prepare_csp_for_next_request()
    and sweep(). A thread preparing itself for the next client request
    could briefly appear to be inactive.
    If all other threads were already using more recent files,
    the thread could get its files swept away under its feet.
    So far this has only been reproduced while stress testing in
    valgrind while touching action files in a loop. It's unlikely
    to have caused any actual problems in the real world.
  - Disable filters if SDCH compression is used unless filtering is forced.
    If SDCH was combined with a supported compression algorithm, Privoxy
    previously could try to decompress it and ditch the Content-Encoding
    header even though the SDCH compression wasn't dealt with.
    Reported by zebul666 in #3225863.
  - Make a copy of the --user value and only mess with that when splitting
    user and group. On some operating systems modifying the value directly
    is reflected in the output of ps and friends and can be misleading.
    Reported by zepard in #3292710.
  - If forwarded-connect-retries is set, only retry if Privoxy is actually
    forwarding the request. Previously direct connections would be retried
    as well.
  - Fixed a small memory leak when retrying connections with IPv6
    support enabled.
  - Remove an incorrect assertion in compile_dynamic_pcrs_job_list()
    It could be triggered by a pcrs job with an invalid pcre
    pattern (for example one that contains a lone quantifier).
  - If the --user argument user[.group] contains a dot, always bail out
    if no group has been specified. Previously the intended, but undocumented
    (and apparently untested), behaviour was to try interpreting the whole
    argument as user name, but the detection was flawed and checked for '0'
    instead of '\0', thus merely preventing group names beginning with a zero.
  - In html_code_map[], use a numeric character reference instead of &apos;
    which wasn't standardized before XHTML 1.0.
  - Fix an invalid free when compiled with FEATURE_GRACEFUL_TERMINATION
    and shut down through http://config.privoxy.org/die
  - In get_actions(), fix the "temporary" backwards compatibility hack
    to accept block actions without reason.
    It also covered other actions that should be rejected as invalid.
    Reported by Billy Crook.

- General improvements:
  - Privoxy can (re)compress buffered content before delivering
    it to the client. Disabled by default as most users wouldn't
    benefit from it.
  - The +fast-redirects{check-decoded-url} action checks URL
    segments separately. If there are other parameters behind
    the redirect URL, this makes it unnecessary to cut them off
    by additionally using a +redirect{} pcrs command.
    Initial patch submitted by Jamie Zawinski in #3429848.
  - When loading action sections, verify that the referenced filters
    exist. Currently missing filters only result in an error message,
    but eventually the severity will be upgraded to fatal.
  - Allow to bind to multiple separate addresses.
    Patch set submitted by Petr Pisar in #3354485.
  - Set socket_error to errno if connecting fails in rfc2553_connect_to().
    Previously rejected direct connections could be incorrectly reported
    as DNS issues if Privoxy was compiled with IPv6 support.
  - Adjust url_code_map[] so spaces are replaced with %20 instead of '+'
    While '+' can be used by client's submitting form data, this is not
    actually what Privoxy is using the lookups for. This is more of a
    cosmetic issue and doesn't fix any known problems.
  - When compiled without FEATURE_FAST_REDIRECTS, do not silently
    ignore +fast-redirect{} directives
  - Added a workaround for GNU libc's strptime() reporting negative
    year values when the parsed year is only specified with two digits.
    On affected systems cookies with such a date would not be turned
    into session cookies by the +session-cookies-only action.
    Reported by Vaeinoe in #3403560
  - Fixed bind failures with certain GNU libc versions if no non-loopback
    IP address has been configured on the system. This is mainly an issue
    if the system is using DHCP and Privoxy is started before the network
    is completely configured.
    Reported by Raphael Marichez in #3349356.
    Additional insight from Petr Pisar.
  - Privoxy log messages now use the ISO 8601 date format %Y-%m-%d.
    It's only slightly longer than the old format, but contains
    the full date including the year and allows sorting by date
    (when grepping in multiple log files) without hassle.
  - In get_last_url(), do not bother trying to decode URLs that do
    not contain at least one '%' sign. It reduces the log noise and
    a number of unnecessary memory allocations.
  - In case of SOCKS5 failures, dump the socks response in the log message.
  - Simplify the signal setup in main().
  - Streamline socks5_connect() slightly.
  - In socks5_connect(), require a complete socks response from the server.
    Previously Privoxy didn't care how much data the server response
    contained as long as the first two bytes contained the expected
    values. While at it, shrink the buffer size so Privoxy can't read
    more than a whole socks response.
  - In chat(), do not bother to generate a client request in case of
    direct CONNECT requests. It will not be used anyway.
  - Reduce server_last_modified()'s stack size.
  - Shorten get_http_time() by using strftime().
  - Constify the known_http_methods pointers in unknown_method().
  - Constify the time_formats pointers in parse_header_time().
  - Constify the formerly_valid_actions pointers in action_used_to_be_valid().
  - Introduce a GNUMakefile MAN_PAGE variable that defaults to privoxy.1.
    The Debian package uses section 8 for the man page and this
    should simplify the patch.
  - Deduplicate the INADDR_NONE definition for Solaris by moving it to jbsockets.h
  - In block_url(), ditch the obsolete workaround for ancient Netscape versions
    that supposedly couldn't properly deal with status code 403.
  - Remove a useless NULL pointer check in load_trustfile().
  - Remove two useless NULL pointer checks in load_one_re_filterfile().
  - Change url_code_map[] from an array of pointers to an array of arrays
    It removes an unnecessary layer of indirection and on 64bit system reduces
    the size of the binary a bit.
  - Fix various typos. Fixes taken from Debian's 29_typos.dpatch by Roland Rosenfeld.
  - Add a dok-tidy GNUMakefile target to clean up the messy HTML
    generated by the other dok targets.
  - GNUisms in the GNUMakefile have been removed.
  - Change the HTTP version in static responses to 1.1
  - Synced config.sub and config.guess with upstream
    2011-11-11/386c7218162c145f5f9e1ff7f558a3fbb66c37c5.
  - Add a dedicated function to parse the values of toggles. Reduces duplicated
    code in load_config() and provides better error handling. Invalid or missing
    toggle values are now a fatal error instead of being silently ignored.
  - Terminate HTML lines in static error messages with \n instead of \r\n.
  - Simplify cgi_error_unknown() a bit.
  - In LogPutString(), don't bother looking at pszText when not
    actually logging anything.
  - Change ssplit()'s fourth parameter from int to size_t.
    Fixes a clang complaint.
  - Add a warning that the statistics currently can't be trusted.
    Mention Privoxy-Log-Parser's --statistics option as
    an alternative for the time being.
  - In rfc2553_connect_to(), start setting cgi->error_message on error.
  - Change the expected status code returned for http://p.p/die depending
    on whether or not FEATURE_GRACEFUL_TERMINATION is available.
  - In cgi_die(), mark the client connection for closing.
    If the client will fetch the style sheet through another connection
    it gets the main thread out of the accept() state and should thus
    trigger the actual shutdown.
  - Add a proper CGI message for cgi_die().
  - Don't enforce a logical line length limit in read_config_line().
  - Slightly refactor server_last_modified() to remove useless gmtime*() calls.
  - In get_content_type(), also recognize '.jpeg' as JPEG extension.
  - Add '.png' to the list of recognized file extensions in get_content_type().
  - In block_url(), consistently use the block reason "Request blocked by Privoxy"
    In two places the reason was "Request for blocked URL" which hides the
    fact that the request got blocked by Privoxy and isn't necessarily
    correct as the block may be due to tags.
  - In listen_loop(), reload the configuration files after accepting
    a new connection instead of before.
    Previously the first connection that arrived after a configuration
    change would still be handled with the old configuration.
  - In chat()'s receive-data loop, skip a client socket check if
    the socket will be written to right away anyway. This can
    increase the transfer speed for unfiltered content on fast
    network connections.
  - The socket timeout is used for SOCKS negotiations as well which
    previously couldn't timeout.
  - Don't keep the client connection alive if any configuration file
    changed since the time the connection came in. This is closer to
    Privoxy's behaviour before keep-alive support for client connection
    has been added and also less confusing in general.
  - Treat all Content-Type header values containing the pattern
    'script' as a sign of text. Reported by pribog in #3134970.

- Action file improvements:
  - Moved the site-specific block pattern section below the one for the
    generic patterns so for requests that are matched in both, the block
    reason for the domain is shown which is usually more useful than showing
    the one for the generic pattern.
  - Remove -prevent-compression from the fragile alias. It's no longer
    used anywhere by default and isn't known to break stuff anyway.
  - Add a (disabled) section to block various Facebook tracking URLs.
    Reported by Dan Stahlke in #3421764.
  - Add a (disabled) section to rewrite and redirect click-tracking
    URLs used on news.google.com.
    Reported by Dan Stahlke in #3421755.
  - Unblock linuxcounter.net/.
    Reported by Dan Stahlke in #3422612.
  - Block 'www91.intel.com/' which is used by Omniture.
    Reported by Adam Piggott in #3167370.
  - Disable the handle-as-empty-doc-returns-ok option and mark it as deprecated.
    Reminded by tceverling in #2790091.
  - Add ".ivwbox.de/" to the "Cross-site user tracking" section.
    Reported by Nettozahler in #3172525.
  - Unblock and fast-redirect ".awin1.com/.*=http://".
    Reported by Adam Piggott in #3170921.
  - Block "b.collective-media.net/".
  - Widen the Debian popcon exception to "qa.debian.org/popcon".
    Seen in Debian's 05_default_action.dpatch by Roland Rosenfeld.
  - Block ".gemius.pl/" which only seems to be used for user tracking.
    Reported by johnd16 in #3002731. Additional input from Lee and movax.
  - Disable banners-by-size filters for '.thinkgeek.com/'.
    The filter only seems to catch pictures of the inventory.
  - Block requests for 'go.idmnet.bbelements.com/please/showit/'.
    Reported by kacperdominik in #3372959.
  - Unblock adainitiative.org/.
  - Add a fast-redirects exception for '.googleusercontent.com/.*=cache'.
  - Add a fast-redirects exception for webcache.googleusercontent.com/.
  - Unblock http://adassier.wordpress.com/ and http://adassier.files.wordpress.com/.

- Filter file improvements:
  - Let the yahoo filter hide '.ads'.
  - Let the msn filter hide overlay ads for Facebook 'likes' in search
    results and elements with the id 's_notf_div'. They only seem to be
    used to advertise site 'enhancements'.
  - Let the js-events filter additionally disarm setInterval().
    Suggested by dg1727 in #3423775.

- Documentation improvements:
  - Clarify the effect of compiling Privoxy with zlib support.
    Suggested by dg1727 in #3423782.
  - Point out that the SourceForge messaging system works like a black
    hole and should thus not be used to contact individual developers.
  - Mention some of the problems one can experience when not explicitly
    configuring an IP addresses as listen address.
  - Explicitly mention that hostnames can be used instead of IP addresses
    for the listen-address, that only the first address returned will be
    used and what happens if the address is invalid.
    Requested by Calestyo in #3302213.

- Log message improvements:
  - If only the server connection is kept alive, do not pretend to
    wait for a new client request.
  - Remove a superfluous log message in forget_connection().
  - In chat(), properly report missing server responses as such
    instead of calling them empty.
  - In forwarded_connect(), fix a log message nobody should ever see.
  - Fix a log message in socks5_connect(), a failed write operation
    was logged as failed read operation.
  - Let load_one_actions_file() properly complain about a missing
    '{' at the beginning of the file.
    Simply stating that a line is invalid isn't particularly helpful.
  - Do not claim to listen on a socket until Privoxy actually does.
    Patch submitted by Petr Pisar #3354485
  - Prevent a duplicated LOG_LEVEL_CLF message when sending out
    the "no-server-data" response.
  - Also log the client socket when dropping a connection.
  - Include the destination host in the 'Request ... marked for
    blocking. limit-connect{...} doesn't allow CONNECT ...' message
    Patch submitted by Saperski in #3296250.
  - Prevent a duplicated log message if none of the resolved IP
    addresses were reachable.
  - In connect_to(), do not pretend to retry if forwarded-connect-retries
    is zero or unset.
  - When a specified user or group can't be found, put the name in
    single-quotes when logging it.
  - In rfc2553_connect_to(), explain getnameinfo() errors better.
  - Remove a useless log message in chat().
  - When retrying to connect, also log the maximum number of connection
    attempts.
  - Rephrase a log message in compile_dynamic_pcrs_job_list().
    Divide the error code and its meaning with a colon. Call the pcrs
    job dynamic and not the filter. Filters may contain dynamic and
    non-dynamic pcrs jobs at the same time. Only mention the name of
    the filter or tagger, but don't claim it's a filter when it could
    be a tagger.
  - In a fatal error message in load_one_actions_file(), cover both
    URL and TAG patterns.
  - In pcrs_strerror(), properly report unknown positive error code
    values as such. Previously they were handled like 0 (no error).
  - In compile_dynamic_pcrs_job_list(), also log the actual error code as
    pcrs_strerror() doesn't handle all errors reported by pcre.
  - Don't bother trying to continue chatting if the client didn't ask for it.
    Reduces log noise a bit.
  - Make two fatal error message in load_one_actions_file() more descriptive.
  - In cgi_send_user_manual(), log when rejecting a file name due to '/' or '..'.
  - In load_file(), log a message if opening a file failed.
    The CGI error message alone isn't too helpful.
  - In connection_destination_matches(), improve two log messages
    to help understand why the destinations don't match.
  - Rephrase a log message in serve(). Client request arrival
    should be differentiated from closed client connections now.
  - In serve(), log if a client connection isn't reused due to a
    configuration file change.
  - Let mark_server_socket_tainted() always mark the server socket tainted,
    just don't talk about it in cases where it has no effect. It doesn't change
    Privoxy's behaviour, but makes understanding the log file easier.

- configure:
  - Added a --disable-ipv6-support switch for platforms where support
    is detected but doesn't actually work.
  - Do not check for the existence of strerror() and memmove() twice
  - Remove a useless test for setpgrp(2). Privoxy doesn't need it and
    it can cause problems when cross-compiling.
  - Rename the --disable-acl-files switch to --disable-acl-support.
    Since about 2001, ACL directives are specified in the standard
    config file.
  - Update the URL of the 'Removing outdated PCRE version after the
    next stable release' posting. The old URL stopped working after
    one of SF's recent site "optimizations". Reported by Han Liu.

- Privoxy-Regression-Test:
  - Added --shuffle-tests option to increase the chances of detection race conditions.
  - Added a --local-test-file option that allows to use Privoxy-Regression-Test without Privoxy.
  - Added tests for missing socks4 and socks4a forwarders.
  - The --privoxy-address option now works with IPv6 addresses containing brackets, too.
  - Perform limited sanity checks for parameters that are supposed to have numerical values.
  - Added a --sleep-time option to specify a number of seconds to
    sleep between tests, defaults to 0.
  - Disable the range-requests tagger for tests that break if it's enabled.
  - Log messages use the ISO 8601 date format %Y-%m-%d.
  - Fix spelling in two error messages.
  - In the --help output, include a list of supported tests and their default levels.
  - Adjust the tests to properly deal with FEATURE_TOGGLE being disabled.

- Privoxy-Log-Parser:
  - Perform limited sanity checks for command line parameters that
    are supposed to have numerical values.
  - Implement a --unbreak-lines-only option to try to revert MUA breakage.
  - Accept and highlight: Added header: Content-Encoding: deflate
  - Accept and highlight: Compressed content from 29258 to 8630 bytes.
  - Accept and highlight: Client request arrived in time on socket 21.
  - Highlight: Didn't receive data in time: a.fsdn.com:443
  - Accept log messages with ISO 8601 time stamps, too.

- uagen:
  - Bump generated Firefox version to 8.0.
  - Only randomize the release date if the new --randomize-release-date
    option is enabled. Firefox versions after 4 use a fixed date string
    without meaning.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr 28 19:44:40 UTC 2011 - andreas.stieger@gmx.de

- updated to upstream 3.0.17 stable
- privoxy-3.0.17-config.patch:
  adjust chunk positions
  filterfile user.filter is uncommented in upstream source, removed chunk
- privoxy-3.0.17-utf8.patch:
  adjust chunk positions

- Fixed last-chunk-detection for responses where the content was small
  enough to be read with the body, causing Privoxy to wait for the
  end of the content until the server closed the connection or the
  request timed out. Reported by "Karsten" in #3028326.
- Responses with status code 204 weren't properly detected as body-less
  like RFC2616 mandates. Like the previous bug, this caused Privoxy to
  wait for the end of the content until the server closed the connection
  or the request timed out. Fixes #3022042 and #3025553, reported by a
  user with no visible name. Most likely also fixes a bunch of other
  AJAX-related problem reports that got closed in the past due to
  insufficient information and lack of feedback.
- Fixed an ACL bug that made it impossible to build a blacklist.
  Usually the ACL directives are used in a whitelist, which worked
  as expected, but blacklisting is still useful for public proxies
  where one only needs to deny known abusers access.
- Added LOG_LEVEL_RECEIVED to log the not-yet-parsed data read from the
  network. This should make debugging various parsing issues a lot easier.
- The IPv6 code is enabled by default on Windows versions that support it.
  Patch submitted by oCameLo in #2942729.
- In mingw32 versions, the user.filter file is reachable through the
  GUI, just like default.filter is. Feature request 3040263.
- Added the configure option --enable-large-file-support to set a few
  defines that are required by platforms like GNU/Linux to support files
  larger then 2GB. Mainly interesting for users without proper logfile
  management.
- Logging with "debug 16" no longer stops at the first nul byte which is
  pretty useless. Non-printable characters are replaced with their hex value
  so the result can't span multiple lines making parsing them harder then
  necessary.
- Privoxy logs when reading an action, filter or trust file.
- Fixed incorrect regression test markup which caused a test in
  3.0.16 to fail while Privoxy itself was working correctly.
  While Privoxy accepts hide-referer, too, the action name is actually
  hide-referrer which is also the name used one the final results page,
  where the test expected the alias.

- CGI interface improvements:
  - In finish_http_response(), continue to add the 'Connection: close'
    header if the client connection will not be kept alive.
    Anonymously pointed out in #2987454.
  - Apostrophes in block messages no longer cause parse errors
    when the blocked page is viewed with JavaScript enabled.
    Reported by dg1727 in #3062296.
  - Fix a bunch of anchors that used underscores instead of dashes.
  - Allow to keep the client connection alive after crunching the previous request.
    Already opened server connections can be kept alive, too.
  - In cgi_show_url_info(), don't forget to prefix URLs that only contain
    http:// or https:// in the path. Fixes #2975765 reported by Adam Piggott.
  - Show the 404 CGI page if cgi_send_user_manual() is called while
    local user manual delivery is disabled.

- Action file improvements:
  - Enable user.filter by default. Suggested by David White in #3001830.
  - Block .sitestat.com/. Reported by johnd16 in #3002725.
  - Block .atemda.com/. Reported by johnd16 in #3002723.
  - Block js.adlink.net/. Reported by johnd16 in #3002720.
  - Block .analytics.yahoo.com/. Reported by johnd16 in #3002713.
  - Block sb.scorecardresearch.com, too. Reported by dg1727 in #2992652.
  - Fix problems noticed on Yahoo mail and news pages.
  - Remove the too broad yahoo section, only keeping the
    fast-redirects exception as discussed on ijbswa-devel@.
  - Don't block adesklets.sourceforge.net. Reported in #2974204.
  - Block chartbeat ping tracking. Reported in #2975895.
  - Tag CSS and image requests with cautious and medium settings, too.
  - Don't handle view.atdmt.com as image. It's used for click-throughs
    so users should be able to "go there anyway".
    Reported by Adam Piggott in #2975927.
  - Also let the refresh-tags filter remove invalid refresh tags where
    the 'url=' part is missing. Anonymously reported in #2986382.
    While at it, update the description to mention the fact that only
    refresh tags with refresh times above 9 seconds are covered.
  - javascript needs to be blocked with +handle-as-empty-document to
    work around Firefox bug 492459.  So move .js blockers from
    +block{Might be a web-bug.} -handle-as-empty-document to
    +block{Might be a web-bug.} +handle-as-empty-document.
  - ijbswa-Feature Requests-3006719 - Block 160x578 Banners.
  - Block another omniture tracking domain.
  - Added a range-requests tagger.
  - Added two sections to get Flickr's Ajax interface working with
    default pre-settings. If you change the configuration to block
    cookies by default, you'll need additional exceptions.
    Reported by Mathias Homann in #3101419 and by Patrick on ijbswa-users@.

- Documentation improvements:
  - Explicitly mention how to match all URLs.
  - Consistently recommend socks5 in the Tor FAQ entry and mention
    its advantage compared to socks4a. Reported by David in #2960129.
  - Slightly improve the explanation of why filtering may appear
    slower than it is.
  - Grammar fixes for the ACL section.
  - Fixed a link to the 'intercepting' entry and add another one.
  - Rename the 'Other' section to 'Mailing Lists' and reword it
    to make it clear that nobody is forced to use the trackers
  - Note that 'anonymously' posting on the trackers may not always
    be possible.
  - Suggest to enable debug 32768 when suspecting parsing problems.

- Privoxy-Log-Parser improvements:
  - Gather statistics for ressources, methods, and HTTP versions
    used by the client.
  - Also gather statistics for blocked and redirected requests.
  - Provide the percentage of keep-alive offers the client accepted.
  - Add a --url-statistics-threshold option.
  - Add a --host-statistics-threshold option to also gather
    statistics about how many request where made per host.
  - Fix a bug in handle_loglevel_header() where a 'scan: ' got lost.
  - Add a --shorten-thread-ids option to replace the thread id with
    a decimal number.
  - Accept and ignore: Looks like we got the last chunk together
    with the server headers. We better stop reading.
  - Accept and ignore: Continue hack in da house.
  - Accept and higlight: Rejecting connection from 10.0.0.2.
    Maximum number of connections reached.
  - Accept and highlight: Loading actions file: /usr/local/etc/privoxy/default.action
  - Accept and highlight: Loading filter file: /usr/local/etc/privoxy/default.filter

  - Accept: Merged multiple header lines to: 'X-FORWARDED-PROTO: http X-HOST: 127.0.0.1'

- Code cleanups:
  - Remove the next member from the client_state struct. Only the main
    thread needs access to all client states so give it its own struct.
  - Garbage-collect request_contains_null_bytes().
  - Ditch redundant code in unload_configfile().
  - Ditch LogGetURLUnderCursor() which doesn't seem to be used anywhere.
  - In write_socket(), remove the write-only variable write_len in
    an ifdef __OS2__ block. Spotted by cppcheck.
  - In connect_to(), don't declare the variable 'flags' on OS/2 where
    it isn't used. Spotted by cppcheck.
  - Limit the scope of various variables. Spotted by cppcheck.
  - In add_to_iob(), turn an interestingly looking for loop into a
    boring while loop.
  - Code cleanup in preparation for external filters.
  - In listen_loop(), mention the socket on which we accepted the
    connection, not just the source IP address.
  - In write_socket(), also log the socket we're writing to.
  - In log_error(), assert that escaped characters get logged
    completely or not at all.
  - In log_error(), assert that ival and sval have reasonable values.
    There's no reason not to abort() if they don't.
  - Remove an incorrect cgi_error_unknown() call in a
    cannnot-happen-situation in send_crunch_response().
  - Clean up white-space in http_response definition and
    move the crunch_reason to the beginning.
  - Turn http_response.reason into an enum and rename it
    to http_response.crunch_reason.
  - Silence a 'gcc (Debian 4.3.2-1.1) 4.3.2' warning on i686 GNU/Linux.
  - Fix white-space in a log message in remove_chunked_transfer_coding().
    While at it, add a note that the message doesn't seem to
    be entirely correct and should be improved later on.

- GNUmakefile improvements:
  - Use $(SSH) instead of ssh, so one only needs to specify a username once.
  - Removed references to the action feedback thingy that hasn't been
    working for years.
  - Consistently use shell.sourceforge.net instead of shell.sf.net so
    one doesn't need to check server fingerprints twice.
  - Removed GNUisms in the webserver and webactions targets so they
    work with standard tar.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Mar 15 18:25:24 UTC 2010 - per@osbeck.com

- updated to 3.0.16 stable
- Added the config file option handle-as-empty-doc-returns-ok to
  work around Firefox bug #492459, which causes Firefox to hang
  if JavaScripts are blocked in certain situations. The option is
  enabled in the default config file.
- Added the config file option default-server-timeout to control the
  assumed default server timeout. Since Privoxy no longer returns
  an error message for connection resets on reused client connections,
  assuming larger server timeout values appears to actually work
  pretty well as long as connections aren't shared.
- Added optional support for FreeBSD's accf_http(9). Use the
  configure option --enable-accept-filter to enable it.
- Added fancier Privoxy icons for win32. Contributed by Jeff H.
- In daemon mode, fd 0, 1 and 2 are bound to /dev/null.
- Resolve localhost using whatever address family the operating
  system feels like. Previous betas would try to use IPv4 as this
  is what most users expect, but this didn't work reliably on
  GNU/Linux systems.
- In the action lists on CGI pages, actions and their parameters are
  no longer separated with a space. The action file parser doesn't
  actually allow this and will throw an invalid syntax error if actions
  and parameters in the action files are separated. Not adding the
  spaces means copy and pasting CGI output into the action files works.
- The default keep-alive timeout has been reduced to 5 seconds to work
  around hangs in clients that treat the proxy like any other host and
  stop allowing any new connections if the "maximum number of
  connections per host" is reached.
- Several webbug URLs that look like they are leading to images are now
  blocked as image instead of empty documents. Doing the latter causes
  WebKit-based clients to show a "missing image" icon which may mess up
  the layout.
- The no-such-domain template is used for DNS resolution
  problems with FEATURE_IPV6_SUPPORT enabled. Previously the
  connect-failed template was used. Reported by 'zebul666'.
- Accepts quoted expiration dates even though RFC 2109 10.1.2
  doesn't seem to allow them. Reported anonymously.
- Don't try to forget connections if connection sharing is disabled.
  This wasn't a real problem but caused an unnecessary log message.
- The still undocumented --enable-extended-host-patterns configure
  option has a better description.
- Fixed an error message that would claim a write to the server
  failed when actually writing to the client failed.
- Log the crunch reason before trying to write to the client.
  The log is easier to read that way.
- Several log messages about client connections also mention
  the socket number.
- handle-as-empty-document no longer depends on the image blocking
  code being enabled.
- Privoxy-Log-Parser is roughly 40% faster in highlighting mode.
- uagen, a Firefox User-Agent generator for Privoxy and Mozilla
  browsers has been imported and is available in the tarball's
  tools directory.
- The scripts in the tools directory treat unknown parameters
  as fatal errors.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jan 27 15:11:45 UTC 2010 - mseben@novell.com

- updated to 3.0.15 BETA
  - In case of missing server data, no error message is send to the
    client if the request arrived on a reused connection. The client
    is then supposed to silently retry the request without bothering
    the user. This should significantly reduce the frequency of the
    "No server or forwarder data received" error message many users
    reported.
  - More reliable detection of prematurely closed client sockets
    with keep-alive enabled.
  - FEATURE_CONNECTION_KEEP_ALIVE is decoupled from
    FEATURE_CONNECTION_SHARING and now available on
    all platforms.
  - Improved handling of POST requests on reused connections.
    Should fix problems with stalled connections after submitting
    form data with some browser configurations.
  - Fixed various latency calculation issues.
  - Allows the client to pass NTLM authentication requests to a
    forwarding proxy. This was already assumed and hinted to work
    in 3.0.13 beta but actually didn't. Now it's confirmed to work
    with IE, Firefox and Chrome.
    Thanks to Francois Botha and Wan-Teh Chang
  - Fixed a calculation problem if receiving the server headers
    takes more than two reads, that could cause Privoxy to terminate
    the connection prematurely. Reported by Oliver.
  - Compiles again on platforms such as OpenBSD and systems
    using earlier glibc version that don't support AI_ADDRCONFIG.
    Anonymously submitted in #2872591.
  - A bunch of MS VC project files and Suse and Redhat RPM spec
    files have been removed as they were no longer maintained for
    quite some time.
  - Overly long action lines are properly rejected with a proper
    error message. Previously they would be either rejected as
    invalid or cause a core dump through abort().
  - Already timed-out connections are no longer temporarily remembered.
    They weren't reused anyway, but wasted a socket slot.
  - len refers to the number of bytes actually read which might
    differ from the ones received. Adjust log messages accordingly.
  - The optional JavaScript on the CGI page uses encodeURIComponent()
    instead of escape() which doesn't encode all characters that matter.
    Anonymously reported in #2832722.
  - Fix gcc45 warnings in decompress_iob().
  - Various log message improvements.
  - Privoxy-Regression-Test supports redirect tests.
  - Privoxy-Log-Parser can gather some connection statistics.
- moved init script to init.suse file and dropped diff against 
  tarball: init.patch 
 
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Sep 29 12:53:59 UTC 2009 - aj@suse.de

  service is active

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Aug  5 12:46:53 CEST 2009 - mseben@suse.cz

- updated to 3.0.14 BETA
 * The latency is taken into account when evaluating whether or not to
   reuse a connection. This should significantly reduce the number of
   connections problems several users reported.
 * If the server doesn't specify how long the connection stays alive,
   Privoxy errs on the safe side of caution and assumes it's only a second.
 * The error pages for connection timeouts or missing server data use a
   Last-Modified date in the past.
 * Setting keep-alive-timeout to 0 disables keep-alive support.
 * Pipelined requests are less likely to be mistaken for the request
   body of the previous request.
 * Privoxy's keep-alive timeout for the current connection is reduced
   to the one specified in the client's Keep-Alive header.
 * For HTTP/1.1 requests, Privoxy implies keep-alive support by not
   setting any Connection header instead of using 'Connection: keep-alive'.
 * If the socket isn't reusable, Privoxy doesn't temporarily waste
   a socket slot to remember the connection.
 * If keep-alive support is disabled but compiled in, the client's
   Keep-Alive header is removed.
 * Fixed a bug that (at least theoretically) could cause log
   timestamps to be occasionally off by about a second.
 * No Proxy-Connection header if added if there already is one.
 * The configure script respects the $PATH variable when searching
   for groups and id.

- version 3.0.13 BETA
 * Added IPv6 support. Thanks to Petr Pisar
 * The connection sharing code is only used if the connection-sharing
   option is enabled.
 * The max-client-connections option has been added to restrict
   the number of client connections below a value enforced by
   the operating system.
 * Compressed content with extra fields couldn't be decompressed
   and would get passed to the client unfiltered.
 * If the server resets the Connection after sending only the headers
   Privoxy forwards what it got to the client.
 * Error messages in case of connection timeouts use the right
   HTTP status code.
 * If spawning a child to handle a request fails, the client
   gets an error message and Privoxy continues to listen for
   new requests right away.
 * The error messages in case of server-connection timeouts or
   prematurely closed server connections are now template-based.
 * If zlib support isn't compiled in, Privoxy no longer tries to
   filter compressed content unless explicitly asked to do so.
 * In case of connections that are denied based on ACL directives,
   the memory used for the client IP is no longer leaked.
 * Fixed another small memory leak if the client request times out
   while waiting for client headers other than the request line.
 * The client socket is kept open until the server socket has
   been marked as unused. This should increase the chances that
   the still-open connection will be reused for the client's next
   request to the same destination. Note that this only matters
   if connection-sharing is enabled.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri May 15 15:45:50 CEST 2009 - mseben@suse.cz

- modified config.patch : enabled filterfile user.filter in
  config by default (bnc#504563)

- updated to 3.0.12
  * The socket-timeout option now also works on platforms whose
    select() implementation modifies the timeout structure.
  * The Connection: keep-alive code properly deals with files
    larger than 2GB.
  * The content length for files above 2GB is logged correctly.
  * The user-manual directive on the show-status page links to
    the documentation location specified with the directive,
    not to the Privoxy website.
  * When running in daemon mode, Privoxy doesn't log anything
    to the console unless there are errors before the logfile
    has been opened.
  * The show-status page prints warnings about invalid directives
    on the same line as the directives themselves.
  * Fixed several justified (but harmless) compiler warnings
  * In verbose mode, or if the new option --show-skipped-tests
    is used, Privoxy-Regression-Test logs skipped tests and the
    skip reason.

- changes in version 3.0.11
  * On most platforms, outgoing connections can be kept alive and
    reused if the server supports it.
  * When dropping privileges, membership in supplementary groups
    is given up as well. Not doing that can lead to Privoxy running
    with more rights than necessary and violates the principle of
    least privilege. Users of the --user option are advised to update.
    Thanks to Matthias Drochner for reporting the problem,
    providing the initial patch and testing the final version.
  * Passing invalid users or groups with the --user option
    didn't lead to program exit. Regression introduced in 3.0.7.
  * The match all section has been moved from default.action
    to a new file called match-all.action. As a result the
    default.action no longer needs to be touched by the user
    and can be safely overwritten by updates.
  * The standard.action file has been removed. Its content
    is now part of the default.action file.
  * In some situations the logged content length was slightly too low.
  * Crunched requests are logged with their own log level.
    If you used "debug 1" in the past, you'll probably want
    to additionally enable "debug 1024", otherwise only passed
    requests will be logged. If you only care about crunched
    requests, simply replace "debug 1" with "debug 1024".
  * The crunch reason has been moved to the beginning of the
    crunch message. For HTTP URLs, the protocol is logged as well.
  * Log messages are shortened by printing the thread id on its own.
  * The config option socket-timeout has been added to control
    the time Privoxy waits for data to arrive on a socket.
  * Support for remote toggling is controlled by the configure
    option --disable-toggle only.
  * Requests with invalid HTTP versions are rejected.
  * The template symbol @date@ can be used to include a date(1)-like
    time string. Initial patch submitted by Endre Szabo.
  * Responses from shoutcast servers are accepted again.
    Problem reported and fix suggested by Stefan.
  * The hide-forwarded-for-headers action has been replaced with
    the change-x-forwarded-for{} action which can also be used to
    add X-Forwarded-For headers.

- update to version 3.0.10 stable
 * Ordinary configuration file changes no longer cause program
   termination on OS/2 if the name of the logfile hasn't been
   changed as well. This regression probably crept in with the
   logging improvements in 3.0.7. Reported by Maynard.
 * The img-reorder filter is less likely to mess up JavaScript
   code in img tags. Problem and solution reported in #2014552.
 * The source tar ball now includes Privoxy-Log-Parser,
   a syntax-highlighter for Privoxy logs. For fancy screenshots 
   see: http://www.fabiankeil.de/sourcecode/privoxy-log-parser/
   Documentation is available through perldoc(1).
