dropbear (2022.82-1) unstable; urgency=medium

    Setting NO_START=1 in /etc/default/dropbear in order to avoid automatically
    starting dropbear(8) is no longer honored.  Use your service manager
    instead, for instance run `systemctl disable --now dropbear`.
    Alternatively, you can run `apt remove dropbear` to remove startup scripts
    and service files (you'll still be able to start dropbear(8) manually if
    the 'dropbear-bin' package is installed, and use the initramfs integration
    if the 'dropbear-initramfs' package is installed.)

    In addition, /etc/default/dropbear settings DROPBEAR_*KEY and
    DROPBEAR_BANNER are subsumed by DROPBEAR_EXTRA_ARGS are no longer honored.
    See /etc/default/dropbear for examples.

dropbear (2019.78-1) unstable; urgency=medium

    'dropbear' < 2019.78-1 was renamed to 'dropbear' with 2019.78-1.
    'dropbear-run' is now a transitional dummy package depending on
    'dropbear'.

    On systems which do rely on the initramfs integration, one can mark
    'dropbear-initramfs' as being manually installed (so APT never selects it
    for auto-removal) with the following command:

        apt-mark manual dropbear-initramfs

    On the other hand, the 'dropbear-initramfs' package can be safely
    removed on systems not relying on initramfs integration.

dropbear (2015.68-1) unstable; urgency=low

    dropbear < 2015.68-1 has been split into dropbear-bin (binaries),
    dropbear-run (init scripts) and dropbear-initramfs (initramfs
    integration).  'dropbear' is now a transitional dummy package
    depending on dropbear-run and dropbear-initramfs.

    /usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf-hooks.d/dropbear is no longer marked
    as a configuration file, since doing so violates the Debian Policy
    Manual section 10.7.2.  (Regression from 2014.64-1.)  Instead, move
    the file to /etc/initramfs-tools/conf-hooks.d/dropbear and add a
    symlink in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf-hooks.d.

    Upstream has removed the '-d' option from the manpage.  '-r' is now
    used to specify all three types of host key file: RSA, DSS, and
    ECDSA.

    Updating the initramfs no longer displays a warning about changing
    host keys: users shouldn't be encouraged to use the same keys in the
    encrypted partition and in the initramfs.  The proper fix is to use
    an alternative port or UserKnownHostFile.

    By default all interfaces are now brought down, and IP routes and
    addressed are flushed before exiting the ramdisk, in order to avoid
    dirty network configuration in the regular kernel.  The interfaces
    considered are those matching the $DROPBEAR_IFDOWN shell pattern
    (default: '*'); the special value 'none' keeps all interfaces up and
    preserves routing tables and addresses.
