This file is maintainted by imp@village.org. Please send new entries
in it to him. It contains a list, in reverse chronologocal order, of
major breakages in tracking -current. Not all things will be listed
here, and it only starts on Novemeber 18, 1998. If you have an
earlier version of FreeBSD, you are on your own.
19981231:
Postfix, to be committed shortly, will require a new uid (mta)
and a new gid (mta). Add them now and avoid the rush.
19981230:
You should install new bootblocks now. The ELF kernel will
become default soon. In addition, you'll need to upgrade
your userland programs to ELF before then as well. Use
make aout-to-elf to upgrade your userland programs (old
a.out programs in, for example, /usr/local/bin will
continue to work, even after the upgrade). See src/Makefile
for more details.
19981202:
New groups from 19981201 commented out of mtree, so they
aren't strictly needed, but still a good idea to have.
19981201:
New user/group added: bind. From src/etc/master.passwd and
src/etc/group:
% grep <newstuff> /usr/src/etc/group
bind:*:53:
% grep <newstuff> /usr/src/etc/master.passwd
tty:*:4:65533::0:0:Tty Sandbox:/:/sbin/nologin
kmem:*:5:65533::0:0:KMem Sandbox:/:/sbin/nologin
bind:*:53:53::0:0:Bind Sandbox:/:/sbin/nologin
19981118:
PAM integrated into the tree. Requires new /etc/pam.conf file
to silence warnings from authentication programs (login, etc).
See src/etc/pam.conf for a sample.
YYYYMMDD:
What happened and what you need to do.
