UUCP 1.07 released

[Ian Lance Taylor]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

I've released UUCP 1.07.  This is the first new release since 1995.
It is primarily a bug fix release.

This release does fix one security hole, discovered by Zenith Parsec.
The problem is described here:
    http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/3312/exploit/
Patches for this hole have been available for a while, but if you have
not installed a patch, and if untrusted users have access to your
system, you should probably upgrade to version 1.07.

The release is available here:
    ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/uucp/uucp-1.07.tar.gz

Here is the md5sum:

64c54d43787339a7cced48390eb3e1d0  uucp-objdir/uucp-1.07.tar.gz

Changes in version 1.07:

    As usual, many bugs were fixed.

    uuchk now reports the configuration file names which it uses.
    This makes it easier to figure out how to configure a binary
    installation.

    Certain options which could previously be set in Makefile.in are
    now set as options to configure: --with-user, --with-newconfigdir,
    --with-oldconfigdir.

    You can now use file names and notification addresses which
    contain spaces, but only when talking to another instance of
    version 1.07.

    The exit status of uux now uses values from <sysexits.h>.

    TCP ports now support IPv6 on modern systems.  A new ``version''
    command in the port file may be used to restrict a TCP port to
    just IPv4 or just IPv6.

    \M and \m may now be used in any chat script, not just a dialer
    chat script.

    Added ``max-file-time'' command to sys file.

    When uucico automatically invokes uuxqt, it no longer passes the
    -s option.
