* When asking how to handle an upodate to a locally modified
configuration file, ucf does not tell the user where the new version
of the configuration file lives. This makes it hard to take action
when opening a new shell. This commit updates the debconf templates to
include that information. (Closes: #616486, #747295, #747299)

(Closes: #747533, #748148, #748178, #748371).
* ucf uses getopt(1) to process command line arguments. The debug
options take a an optional level. For short options, If the option has
an optional argument, it must be written directly after the option
character if present. For long options, the optional argument must be
written directly after the long option name, separated by `=', if
present. This is now documented in the manual page.
* Document that ucf --purge can be used to make ucf forget about the
state of the previous decisions for a configuration file, so that when
the package is updated or reinstalled, ucf will ask again about
disposition, (Closes: #566277).

* [f70b2c6]: Handle errors in three way merges This fix is one that
was first implemented in Ubuntu, and has only been lightly modified.
The problem was the handling of merge failures in three way merges,
ucf used to just pass the error through to the maintainer script,
and so a merge failure resulted in a maintainer script failure,
which could cascade in a upgrade. However, trapping the error, and
showing it via debconf, and then returning to the ucf debconf menu
allows users to resolve this issue as they please. This patch
implements that.
Bug fix: "three-way-merge errors cause upgrade pains", thanks to Steve
Langasek (Closes: #543593).

really, but merely a reality. This patch sleeps for a couple of

* [6e5ba1b]: Save and restore command line arguments after parsing
This way, when the script is called again under debconf, the command
line arguments are still around, and have not been eliminated during

commandline itself.

making three way capabilities the default, except for large
configuration files, where large is defined as 25 KB.

* [bd1dfcb]: Substitute the ucf/show_diff DIFF variable contents to
protect sensitive data. The previous fix said "reset diff question
after use so contents are not written to disk". Unfortunately this is
not enough (or even needed): the sensitive data is not stored in the
value of ucf/show_diff, but in the DIFF variable associated with it.
Bug fix: "ucf stores diff (of private files) in debconf (world readable)"
Closes: Bug#511893 Author: Niko Tyni <ntyni@debian.org>
* [f5cbbdf]: Show the differences on the first try
Until 3.0012, ucf/show_diff was reset just before showing it to the
user. This would unset the 'seen' flag properly. However, moving the
db_reset call after db_input made the latter skip the note on the
first time if the 'seen' flag was already set. To make things worse,
Debconf::ConfModule::finish() sets the 'seen' flag for all the
questions it has handled before exiting, so the flag was always true
after debconf exited. Simply unsetting the flag before db_input fixes
this.
Bug fix: "skips differences on the first try", thanks to Niko Tyni
(Closes: #514071).

cause the failure.

* [29fbb69]: reset diff question after use so contents are not written to disk
Debconf does not use world readable "temporary internal
files" as Manoj hypothesises. Data is only written to disk if it is
left in the debconf database when the frontend (ucf) exits.
Tightening the permissions on the debconf database would break
several things including use of debconf-show in reportbug.

Closes: Bug#511893
* [9eb5118]: ucf uses debconf even if called without --debconf-ok and hangs
ucf, even if is called without --debconf-ok, uses debconf and
hangs if db_stop had been already called, since it tries to load
/usr/share/debconf/confmodule and loads the ucf debconf templates.
This is a minimal change, and just moves the test of DEBCONF_OK
earlier. Thanks to Robert Luberda for the report and suggested fix.

* [26a61b8]: Start issueing a diagnostic if ucf is forced to not use debconf

debconf prompting shall be removed.

ucf (3.0011) unstable; urgency=low
* [debiandir:8949365] Fix VCS-Browser URL
* [debiandir:ede9c73] Do not depend on cdebconf as an alternative
ucf relies heavily on debconf to do its job, and thus depends on it. Way
back when, it was told to me that we arte going to move to cdebconf,
which at some point will be the preferred way. In the meantime, to
facilitate the future transition, we should all depend on
debconf | cdebconf
to make life in the future easier.
Now, as of version 3.005, ucf started using a feaure that has long been a
part of cdebconf, but was only ported to debconf in version 1.5.19, so
now ucf started depending on:
debconf (>= 1.5.19) | cdebconf
and this is where trouble beings.
Suppose a machine running stable has cdebconf installed. It also has an
old version of debconf installed, say, one that is older than
1.5.19. Since cdebconf was installed, the dependency requirements are
fully satisfied, so debconf was not updated.
Now, ucf follows the instructions in debconf-devel(7) -- and that just
uses debconf, the older version which does nothave support for the
feature ucf needs. Boom, there goes the update.
This is a grave bug.

* Drop the Recommends: debconf-utils now that it's no longer used.
* Instead of proceeding merrily on our way if the three way merge fails,
we now leave the dest file unchanged, leave the mess in the new file
(foo.ucf-new), tell the user about it, and abort the upgrade by
exiting with exit 3. We still psit out an error about conflicts.

* Bug fix: "ucf takes not enough care using readlink -f", thanks to
Matthew Vernon. While this is not a grave bug (emitting better
diagnostics is nice, but hardly critical), I did go through and fixed
all readlink failing issues. I also improved the pager determination
code, while I was at it, so ucf is more likely to find a sensible
pager. The new code should also handle a messed up /etc/alternatives
setup now. (Closes: #372303).

ucf thinks like sensible-pager, looking at $PAGER,

Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>
* Added debconf support to ucf. It will use debconf for prompting.
* Since some badly behaved maintainer scripts use debconf, then cripple it
(by calling STOP, redirecting stdio, etc), and then call ucf, ucf must
take care to not use debconf if called from such a script. In this case it
will fall back to prompting without using debconf, unless a --debconf-ok
parameter is given, to let ucf know that the maintainer script
promises it has not screwed up debconf.
* Update ucf.1
* Since the above hack means that ucf retains the ability to prompt
on its own, I made it not depend on debconf at all; if debconf is not
present then ucf will fall back to its internal prompter. closes: Bug#234151

ucf (0.08) unstable; urgency=high
* Add a --purge option to ucf, to remove all hints about a configuration
file from the hashfile. This fixes what happened if a package was
purged, and reinstalled -- on purge the configuration file was
removed, but it was still in ucf's database. On reinstall, since the
upstream file had not changed, ucf did not copy it to the destination
-- even though the destination file no longer existed. This is a major
bugfix. closes: Bug#159015
* Fix use of md5sum files, and manpage typo, thanks to a patch from
Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@debian.org>. closes: Bug#163229
* ucf now has a rudimentary, experimental, and undocumented diff3
capability. So, optionally, people can see a diff3 diff between the
current file, the old file, and the new upstream version. Also, they
can have the changes made in the upstream versions merged into the
current file. This can be dangerous.

ucf (0.05) unstable; urgency=low
* /etc/ucf.conf and ucf.conf(5) disagreed due to a typo in the man
page. Fixed. closes: Bug#135691
* Added the ability for the developer to specify a single file with
historical md5sums, instead of having to ship a directory populated
with single line files for every configuration file in the
package. This is now beginning to get reasonably complex ;-)

ucf (0.04) unstable; urgency=high
* Hmm. Failed to replace the configuration file if the old file was a
symbolic link to the new file (happened for gnus users). Thanks go to
wsheets@sbcglobal.net for pointing this out.
