Package: gearmand Version: 0.14-1 Severity: normal
I was happy to see an update to Debian's gearman package, but disappointed to find that it was an update to a version that was, itself, the better part of a year old. Version 0.18 is current, and includes *numerous* bug fixes, including buffer overflow bugs: 0.18 Tue Mar 15 13:32:33 PDT 2011 * Bug fix for compile when no plugins are requested. * Bug fix where during startup using Drizzle or MySQL the server could crash. * Bug fix to make sure test programs will run if NULL sized objects are sent. 0.17 Tue Mar 8 08:27:04 PST 2011 * gearadmin added, easy access to shutdown, version, and verbose commands on the server. * Bug fixes related to CLI. * Bug fixes related to Memcached support. * Bug fixes related to Drizzle support. * Dependency on boost now required for build. * Drizzle queue module expects that a schema named "gearmand" exists. * Fix copyright headers were needed. 0.16 Tue Feb 22 10:55:33 PST 2011 * Fixed cases where silent failure of server for queues would not cause tests to fail. * Fix for failure when setsockopt() failed on new connection. * Fixed silen exit in client library based on signals. * Error log now reports failure location in compiled code for ERROR conditions. * Fix for failover. * Fixed issue in client where it would silently die based on signal issues. * "verbose" has been added to the string protocol. It allows you to see what the verbose setting is. 0.15 Mon Feb 14 18:44:32 PST 2011 * Numerous issues around overflow on buffers are now fixed. * Updates on gearmand daemon to share a bit more code. * Numerious fixes for gearman command line client. * IPV6 fix for server. 0.14 Wed Jun 30 13:04:39 PDT 2010 -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.38-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libgearman4 depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-11 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libuuid1 2.17.2-9.1 Universally Unique ID library libgearman4 recommends no packages. libgearman4 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
