inn (1:1.7.2q-52) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Update patch extra_config: use -std=gnu17 because there are too many

    can just set a reasonable limit for the process.
  * Depend on cron | cron-daemon.

 -- Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it>  Fri, 31 May 2024 03:35:26 +0200

    (Closes: #787450)

 -- Dominic Hargreaves <dom@earth.li>  Thu, 20 Aug 2015 15:56:52 +0200

inn (1:1.7.2q-44) unstable; urgency=medium

  * inn.service: remove NoNewPrivileges=yes because it prevents innd

    a basic design flaw. (Though the abp-scheduler patch might help)
