* SECURITY UPDATE: policy bypass with NULL interfaces.
  - Add 82-NULL-policy-bypass.patch: upstream fixes.
  - CVE-2008-0595
* SECURITY UPDATE: application crash via corrupt signatures.
  - Add 83-signature-validation.patch: upstream fixes.
  - CVE-2008-3834

* debian/rules: Start dbus at runlevel priority 12, so that it comes before
  gdm. This eliminates the race condition of starting the X session before
  hal is running. (LP: #25931 and two handfuls of dups)
* debian/dbus.postinst: Migrate rc?.d symlinks from 20 to 12 on upgrades to
  this version.
* debian/control: Set Ubuntu maintainer.
* debian/rules: Clean up doc/*.html (they are generated from XML sources).

* debian/patches/80-dbus-change-at-console-policy.patch:
  - Throw away the previous complicated and broken (see LP#37181) patch.
  - Go back to upstream semantics of 'at_console="true"' matching if the
    process is on any local console regardless of whether it is the
    foreground one.
* debian/dbus.install, debian/dbus.postinst, debian/rules: Revert
  dbus-foreground-console-related changes, since we do not need to install
  any additional programs any more.
* Remove debian/patches/99_autoreconf.patch: We do not need it any more.
* For the record, and to ease the next merge, remaining Ubuntu changes:
  - debian/control: Build depend on libselinux1-dev to get SELinux support.
  - debian/patches/81-session.conf-timeout.patch: Raise the service startup
    timeout from 25 to 60 seconds. It may be too short on the live CD with
    slow machines.

* New upstream release, 1.0.0 aka "Blue Bird"
* debian/patches/99_autoreconf.patch:
  + Updated for new upstream version
* debian/control:
  + Build depend on libselinux1-dev to get SELinux support

36. By Sebastian Dröge on 2006-11-10

* debian/patches/01_no-fatal-warnings.patch:
  + Don't abort() applications that call the DBus API the wrong way, for
    example closing shared connections or calling dbus_error_is_set() on
    NULL. This behaviour was added in 0.95 and is controlled by the
    DBUS_FATAL_WARNINGS enviroment variable and intended by upstream.
    Unfortunately many applications cause those fatal warnings (hal,
    rhythmbox and network-manager to name a few) and make the desktop
    unusable for some people. This will be reset to upstream-default at some
    point again after the most important applications are fixed.
