451 * 75_Lookups-fix-pgsql-multiple-row-single-column-return.patch from upstream
452 GIT master branch. Fix pgsql lookup for multiple result-tuples with a
453 single column. Previously only the last row was returned.

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460 build-system which always has the main targets out-of-date inter alia due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

1552 * debian/tests/control: Add missing python test dependency, as
1553 debian/tests/security calls python. Closes: #740092
1556 * 4.82 deprecated $tls_bits, $tls_certificate_verified, $tls_cipher,
1557 $tls_peerdn, $tls_sni and introduced tls_in_*/tls_out_* variants of these
1558 variables which describe the respective status of the current incoming or
1559 outgoing TLS connection. The rationale for this is that a single exim
1560 process can now use both an incoming (message reception) and outgoing
1561 TLS connection (callout or cutthrough delivery) concurrently. With this
1562 change the "old" variables were mapped to tls_in_*, i.e. they expand to
1563 empty values on outgoing connections. (This is not yet documented.)
1564 Outgoing tls-connections can therefore not be detected by nonempty
1565 $tls_cipher anymore. exim4-config << 4.82 used this mechanism to prevent
1566 sending of plaintext AUTH information on unencrypted connections. Force a
1567 lockstep upgrade of exim4-config by bumping the version of exim4-base's
1568 dependency on exim4-config to >= 4.82.

1904 the source tree instead of re-using the copy and moving away the results
1905 after build. The old approach stopped working since upstream added a
1906 dependency on make all to make install. - As we were changing parts of

3329 outgoing connections). Make it easier to enable debug logging.
3330 * Mention in the comments of the default RCPT ACL that verification
3331 is likely to have false negatives in smarthost/satellite setups. This

3604 * add rationale to README.Debian explaining why using system
3605 passwords for SMTP AUTH is a bad idea.
3606 * streamline configuration to decrease differences to upstream default
3607 example, and to adopt new things that were added since we last
3609 * Do not set inst_aliases for installation, this only affects
3610 example.conf anyway.
3611 * fail build if upstream's example configuration has changed.
3612 * fix NEWS confusion. Thanks to Andreas for spotting this.
3613 * exim4-base.exim4.init: invoke exim4 daemon with the environment
3614 cleaned to avoid language confusion.
3615 * document tls on connect in README.Debian.
3616 * use adduser --quiet instead of > /dev/null in *.postinst.
3617 * Add require_files directive to userforward router to avoid errors
3618 when mailing uucp@hostname.
3619 * Add comment about setting up TLS in conf.d/auth/30_exim4-config_examples
3620 to keep people from blindly allowing cleartext auth.
3621 * Replace 37_dns_disable_additional_section patch with

3636 the GnuTLS entropy issue (#338319, #343085) whose only other chance is
3637 disabling TLS completely. Please note that building exim4-daemon-heavy

4159 * Now that 4.44 is released upload 4.43 to unstable. ;-) Merge experimental
4160 and unstable changelog.
4161 * More lintian overrides. ("X" in eximon4's description has to be capital,
4162 and we take care to only use settitle if it is available.
4163 * make nullmailer setup and the way we use mailname a lot more sensible,
4164 attacking #244095 and #280207:
4165 - mailname is not implicitely made a local domain, instead it is listed
4166 explicitly in dc_other_hostnames, where users can easily remove it
4167 from. (This is basically what postfix does, too.) When upgrading
4168 existing installations mailname is automatically added _once_ to
4169 dc_other_hostnames, on fresh installations mailname is the default
4170 value of dc_other_hostnames. We store the fact that we have added
4171 mailname to dc_other_hostnames in $dc_mailname_in_oh in
4172 update-exim4.conf.conf.
4173 - Make exim work correctly if dc_readhost ("visible, rewritten domain name
4174 for local users") ends up as part of local_domain, which happens if
4175 the same value is chosen for mailname and dc_readhost. This
4176 implemented by new router, hub_user_smarthost. Previously users were
4177 required to use something different (my.invalid.domain) for mailname.
4178 - Special thanks to Christian Perrier for taking care of the
4179 template translation updates.
4180 * We did not substitute the current value into the debconf templates with
4181 db_subst but showed the old ones from the previous debconf run.
4182 * /etc/exim4/email-addresses is ignored now, please use /etc/email-addresses!

4392 exim4 (4.34-4) unstable; urgency=high
4394 * Urgency high because upgrades from woody were broken.
4395 * Exim4 triggers a bug in woody's debconf. - With dialog frontend, invoked
4396 by dpkg-preconfigure you are stuck in a loop, always being asked the same
4397 two questions (split config, and basic configtype) again and again until
4398 you give up and choose split_config=yes although being discouraged from
4399 doing so. I am working around this by making the config-script abort if
4400 debconf is old and we are running in preconfigure mode. (Thanks to Dan
4401 Weber, Adrian Bunk and whoever else wasted brainpower on this.)

4573 for "satellite" but also for "smarthost" system. (Closes: #229911).

4575 (This includes final versions of the templates without the dead
4576 references to "satellite" which closes: #229902.)
4577 - Rewrite /this/ stuff at smtp transport time. /etc/email-addresses
4578 rewriting still uses normal rewriting because it always has and because
4579 it is easier to setup.
4580 - This still does not address one basic issue, the misuse of /etc/mailname
4581 for qualifying recipeints because this needs clarification in policy

5671 * don't provide symlink /usr/sbin/exim anymore - this broke coinstallation

5674 to /usr/lib/exim4. This is a little bit ugly but the alterative would be to
