464 * 75_Lookups-fix-pgsql-multiple-row-single-column-return.patch from upstream
465 GIT master branch. Fix pgsql lookup for multiple result-tuples with a
466 single column. Previously only the last row was returned.

468 * Simplify debian/rules and make it usable with dh v10 compat. The
469 fine-grained support for selecting the to be built packages (-custom with
470 or without -base) was dropped. The build process is now controlled by
471 attaching tasks to dh-override hooks instead of using file dependencies,
472 makefile-style. The latter broke with dh v10 due to upstream's
473 build-system which always has the main targets out-of-date inter alia due
474 to the compile-number feature.
475 * Use hardening=+all instead of hardening=+bindnow,+pie. (Does not change
477 * Use debhelper v10 compat.
478 * Drop override_dh_strip-arch, we have had enough toolchain and
479 source changes to prevent file conflicts.

1565 * debian/tests/control: Add missing python test dependency, as

1569 * 4.82 deprecated $tls_bits, $tls_certificate_verified, $tls_cipher,
1570 $tls_peerdn, $tls_sni and introduced tls_in_*/tls_out_* variants of these
1571 variables which describe the respective status of the current incoming or
1572 outgoing TLS connection. The rationale for this is that a single exim
1573 process can now use both an incoming (message reception) and outgoing
1574 TLS connection (callout or cutthrough delivery) concurrently. With this
1575 change the "old" variables were mapped to tls_in_*, i.e. they expand to
1576 empty values on outgoing connections. (This is not yet documented.)
1577 Outgoing tls-connections can therefore not be detected by nonempty
1578 $tls_cipher anymore. exim4-config << 4.82 used this mechanism to prevent
1579 sending of plaintext AUTH information on unencrypted connections. Force a
1580 lockstep upgrade of exim4-config by bumping the version of exim4-base's
1581 dependency on exim4-config to >= 4.82.

1907 the match_* expansion conditions: "match_address", "match_domain",
1908 "match_ip" & "match_local_part". Named lists can still be used. The
1909 previous behavior made it too easy to create (remotely) vulnerable
1910 configurations. A more detailed rationale and explanation can be found

1916 * Change build system to build each binary variant in a separate copy of
1917 the source tree instead of re-using the copy and moving away the results
1918 after build. The old approach stopped working since upstream added a
1919 dependency on make all to make install. - As we were changing parts of

3340 * Macroize log_selector, remove +tls_cipher from examples (it is on
3341 by default) and always set tls_peerdn (we use TLS by default for
3342 outgoing connections). Make it easier to enable debug logging.
3343 * Mention in the comments of the default RCPT ACL that verification
3344 is likely to have false negatives in smarthost/satellite setups. This
3345 is the easiest way to fix #388460; the "real" fix would be very very

4172 * Now that 4.44 is released upload 4.43 to unstable. ;-) Merge experimental
4173 and unstable changelog.
4174 * More lintian overrides. ("X" in eximon4's description has to be capital,
4175 and we take care to only use settitle if it is available.
4176 * make nullmailer setup and the way we use mailname a lot more sensible,
4177 attacking #244095 and #280207:
4178 - mailname is not implicitely made a local domain, instead it is listed
4179 explicitly in dc_other_hostnames, where users can easily remove it
4180 from. (This is basically what postfix does, too.) When upgrading
4181 existing installations mailname is automatically added _once_ to
4182 dc_other_hostnames, on fresh installations mailname is the default
4183 value of dc_other_hostnames. We store the fact that we have added
4184 mailname to dc_other_hostnames in $dc_mailname_in_oh in
4185 update-exim4.conf.conf.
4186 - Make exim work correctly if dc_readhost ("visible, rewritten domain name
4187 for local users") ends up as part of local_domain, which happens if
4188 the same value is chosen for mailname and dc_readhost. This
4189 implemented by new router, hub_user_smarthost. Previously users were
4190 required to use something different (my.invalid.domain) for mailname.
4191 - Special thanks to Christian Perrier for taking care of the
4192 template translation updates.
4193 * We did not substitute the current value into the debconf templates with
4194 db_subst but showed the old ones from the previous debconf run.
4195 * /etc/exim4/email-addresses is ignored now, please use /etc/email-addresses!
4196 * Bosnian (bs.po) translation is complete (Thanks Adis Nezirovic).

4380 * hr (Croatian) translation of debconf templates by Krunoslav Gernhard
4382 * Do not remove the Debian-exim user in "exim4-config.postrm purge".
4383 Package dependencies are only effective for packages in status installed,
4384 but it is clearly not sane to remove the user until all exim4-packages
4385 are purged. e.g. this can completely break logrotate (Closes: #270681).

4407 * Urgency high because upgrades from woody were broken.
4408 * Exim4 triggers a bug in woody's debconf. - With dialog frontend, invoked
4409 by dpkg-preconfigure you are stuck in a loop, always being asked the same
4410 two questions (split config, and basic configtype) again and again until
4411 you give up and choose split_config=yes although being discouraged from
4412 doing so. I am working around this by making the config-script abort if
4413 debconf is old and we are running in preconfigure mode. (Thanks to Dan
4414 Weber, Adrian Bunk and whoever else wasted brainpower on this.)

4583 question by replacing a unnecessarily complicated formulation with a
4584 clearer one which closes: #226809.
4585 * Debconf supports masquerading as a different host with rewriting not only
4586 for "satellite" but also for "smarthost" system. (Closes: #229911).
4587 - Introduces another but hopefully last pre-sarge template change.
4588 (This includes final versions of the templates without the dead
4589 references to "satellite" which closes: #229902.)
4590 - Rewrite /this/ stuff at smtp transport time. /etc/email-addresses
4591 rewriting still uses normal rewriting because it always has and because
4592 it is easier to setup.
4593 - This still does not address one basic issue, the misuse of /etc/mailname
4594 for qualifying recipeints because this needs clarification in policy
4595 _and_ changing MUAs to not do this. Therefore I declare this post-sarge.

4630 * In template suggest using real-foo to force local delivery.

4633 more changes, translators should probably wait a little bit longer before
4634 updating the translation.
4635 * On fresh installations smarthost profile only listens on loopback per
