Author: gshapiro Date: Tue Jul 7 03:03:17 2015 New Revision: 285232 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/285232 Log: Add warning about change of behavior for sendmail 8.15.2 under FreeBSD 11 with regards to IPv6 address representation in configuration/maps/rulesets. Modified: head/UPDATING Modified: head/UPDATING ============================================================================== --- head/UPDATING Tue Jul 7 03:02:07 2015 (r285231) +++ head/UPDATING Tue Jul 7 03:03:17 2015 (r285232) @@ -31,6 +31,20 @@ NOTE TO PEOPLE WHO THINK THAT FreeBSD 11 disable the most expensive debugging functionality run "ln -s 'abort:false,junk:false' /etc/malloc.conf".) +20150706: + sendmail has been updated to 8.15.2. Starting with FreeBSD 11.0 + and sendmail 8.15, sendmail uses uncompressed IPv6 addresses by + default, i.e., they will not contain "::". For example, instead + of ::1, it will be 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1. This permits a zero subnet + to have a more specific match, such as different map entries for + IPv6:0:0 vs IPv6:0. This change requires that configuration + data (including maps, files, classes, custom ruleset, etc.) must + use the same format, so make certain such configuration data is + upgrading. As a very simple check search for patterns like + 'IPv6:[0-9a-fA-F:]*::' and 'IPv6::'. To return to the old + behavior, set the m4 option confUSE_COMPRESSED_IPV6_ADDRESSES or + the cf option UseCompressedIPv6Addresses. + 20150630: The default kernel entropy-processing algorithm is now Fortuna, replacing Yarrow.
