--- Begin Message ---Package: popularity-contest Version: 1.31 Severity: normal Various documentation about submission via http is not up-to-date. This can be confusing to people considering rolling out popcon accross a company, where email submission is known not to work very well. Here are the places I found that were confusingly out of date: FAQ: A) Each popularity-contest host is identified by a random 128bit uuid (MY_HOSTID in /etc/popularity-contest.conf). This uuid is used to track submission issued by the same host. It should be kept secret. The reports are sent by email to the popcon server. The server automatically extract the report from the email ... The emails are readable only by the server admins. ... 1) Your email submission might be intercepted. No mention of http in the above.. An alternative is to use the new experimental http submission support. This can be enabled using this command: dpkg-reconfigure popularity-contest Whereas http is really the default, with a fallback to mail on error. Also, I don't think the http is experimental anymore. popularity-contest(8): Normally, popularity-contest is run from a cron(8) job, /etc/cron.weekly/popularity-contest, which automatically emails the results to Debian package maintainers according to the settings in /etc/popularity-contest.conf. Should mention http use and the fallback, or just s/emails/submits/ to keep it simple. -- see shy jo

[ Bill Allombert ] * popcon.pl: add support for favicon. . [Petter Reinholdtsen] * Changed popcon-submit.cgi to only report success when it is able to extract the submitter ID from the report. * Changed prepop.pl to only fail if mkdir fails when the directory is missing in the first place. * Make sure HTTP headers use \r\n instead of \n as line ending, to avoid confusing transparent Cisco proxies. Patch from Richard Burton. (Closes: #379732) * Check files in ^/boot/ as well, to detect if a kernel package was used. (Closes: #229237) * Clarify participation question, to make it easier to understand for those that do not know what the popularity contest is. Based on patch from Thijs Kinkhorst. (Closes: #361840) * Change the default HTTP submission setting, from no to yes. It is well tested and work fine. * Remove question about submission method (http/smtp). The HTTP method is and should be the primary submit method for new installations, and existing installations will continue to only use SMTP. This removes the unclear question. (Closes: #317527) * Remove unused template popularity-contest/hostid-failed. * Change package description and question text to make it less debian specific and avoid indication that only Debian packages are reported (also non-Debian packages are reported). Based on patch from Ubuntu and input from Christian Perrier. * Adjust the popularity-contest(8) manual page to only say 'submit', instead of 'email', to avoid confusing users. (Closes: #341144) * Update standards-version from 3.6.2 to 3.7.2. No changes needed. * Add Build-Depends with the same dependencies as Build-Depends-Indep, to keep lintian happy. * Add hidden debconf question popularity-contest/submiturls to support preseeding the submission URL. (Closes: #384144) * Remove double quotes around $MAILTO to allow users to request a copy of the email-submitted reports.
