  * Updated Vietnamese debconf translations from Clytie Siddall

  * initial attempt at handling more gracefully situations where a

  * do some more under-the-hood stuff for multi-instance support in the up
    and coming webapps-common package.

  * include a long-neglected fix from Adam Lebsack, which seems to fix the
    problems prevents dbconfig-common from working with dash (closes: #406127).
    this was also likely the cause of dbconfig appearing to attempt creating
    the database/user in the wrong order (closes: #418479).
  * remove some extra straggler bashisms, and use printf instead of echo
    for the dbc_log functions.
  * change function names for some internal debugging/logging functions.
  * now dbc defaults to logging to /var/log/dbconfig-common/dbc.log, which
    can perhaps make it a bit easier to get debugging info from folks who
    experience bugs.

  * escape SQL-sensitive character sequences in passwords for user

  * escape shell/sed sensitive character sequences that are used in 
    dbconfig-generate-include (closes: #405598).
  * another dpkg order-of-operations corner case: if unpacked but not
    (pre-)configured, our debconf templates aren't registered yet, so
    if some dependant package tries to use us in such a state (i.e. its

  * now provide a global configuration option which affects the priority of
    questions related to remote database configuration.
  * updated spanish debconf translations, thanks to 
    Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña (closes: #372650).
  * provide a fix for over-zealous sanity-checking breakage with packages that
    support multiple database types.  this should remove the need for any
    ugly workarounds.  thanks to David Gil (closes: #372948).
  * dbconfig-common was not respecting manual changes to its global config
    file.  whoops, fixed.

  * when determining the local user as which to interact with postgres,
    additionally check that the account exists before attempting to
    su/chown stuff to it.  this should make postgres work "out of the box"
    for both applications that use a system account and those that don't.
    thanks to stephen gran for the suggestion.  closes: #368854
  * updated the pgsql password prommpt question to mention this.
  * when reconfiguring a package, change the "install with dbconfig-common?"
    question to "reinstall with dbconfig-common?", and default to false.
    this should make dbconfig-common packages' maintainer scripts idempotent,
    which could otherwise be considered a policy bug.
  * bugfix in sql dumping logic (upgrades and purges) for both mysql
    and pgsql.

  * Michael Ablassmeier noticed the the various upgrade files were
    not being applied in "version" sorted order (and were instead in
    "sort -n" sorted order).  fixed with an O(n^2) chunk of code that
    would make any computer scientist cry, if only it were used for
    sorting more than a small number of files :) closes: #370252.

  * provide a new hint option dbc_sql_substitutions, which will pipe
    all provided sql files through the template-based substitution
    filter of dbconfig-generate-include before being processed 
    (closes: #366761).
  * andrew mcmillan found a spelling error, so i ran aspell over all
    the documentation :)
  * provide a new hint option dbc_authmethod_user for the packager
    to provide the "sane default" for how the application's database
    user should authenticate for pgsql applications (closes: #368219).
    we'll soon provide a better (automagic) detection, but it shouldn't
    break things if you start using this feature before then.
  * extra sanity check for a glob that might not expand in some circumstances,
    from matt brown (closes: #368714).
  * more code consolidation, configfile-vs-debconf fixes, removal of some
    obsolete code/templates.

  [sean finney]
  * now support a dbc_pgsql_createdb_encoding hint option in the postinst
    for supporting specific encodings (closes: #366758).
  * updated czech translation from Miroslav Kure (closes: #366261).
  * a third fix for GRANT command construction hiding in the prerm
    support script.  thanks again to Radu (closes: #362571).
  * added a check for the version of createuser to prevent the
    createuser cmd from stopping the install question with a
    prompt about roles (defaulting to not giving users the
    role granting privs).
  * change the authmethod-user question to medium priority, but
    we really need a way to let the maintainers specify the default
    authentication method.
  * fix typo in postinst support code that always logs "administrative
    sql" even when it's doing normal sql.
  * error checking when dumping the database in prerm.  needs a bit
    more work still as we end up going back through the postinst/configure
    code again which isn't smart enough to realize what's going on sometimes.
  * fix some internal pgsql code where $extra was tossed around too much
    in the wrong scope.
  * support for postgresql-8.1.

dbconfig-common (1.8.12) unstable; urgency=low

  [sean finney]
  * dbconfig-common is now migrated to svn.debian.org.
  * two fixes for GRANT command construction from Radu Spineanu:
    - if dbc_dbserver is localhost, then dbc_dballow should
      also be set to localhost (currently it's set to the output of
      `hostname`, just like with remote connections)
    - if connecting to a remote host, use the fqdn (`hostname -f`)
      instead of the node name.
    (closes: #362571).
  * the source package in ./examples is now split into several
    smaller source packages, one per binary.  this should hopefully
    make things much easier to understand for developers interested
    in using dbconfig-common.  thanks to Jelle Boomstra for the
    suggestion (closes: #350588).
  * fix a documentation bug on where installation files should
    be placed.  thanks to Uwe Steinmann for pointing this out
    (closes: #348720).
  * Cameron Dale noticed that a mix of script/sql/admin sql upgrades
    would not necessarily be applied in sorted order with respect
    to each other.  this *should* be fixed now, but i'm sure i'll
    hear if it isn't.
  * added missing build-depend on gs.
  * added a debugging and logging function, and started using it
    in various places as i add more code.  to get a little more
    info on what goes on, export dbc_debug=1 before installing
    a dbc-using package.
  * logic fix for install/upgrades in postinst that would otherwise
    result in installation code being run when it shouldn't, which
    can be really annoying.  now everything *should* work the way
    it ought to...

    we need to have a slightly more liberal grep statement in

    state, or if the admin tries to install the same version twice.

    - Initial Support for importing configurations from packages that

    - removed a bunch of duplicated pgsql code in internal/common.

      (stay as root).
    - add support for an "install-dbadmin" data directory, which functions

      database administrator (only really applicable for some pgsql
      applications currently).
    - various updates to documentation and "best-practices" policy draft.

  * various fixes for postgresql remote connections
  * don't allow empty admin passwords in pgsql, since they don't work anyway.
  * don't repeat asking for the admin password.
  * use the return status of the execute sql/script functions, not the
    value of dbc_status, which is not consistant and probably on its way
    out.  thanks to tobias for pointing this out.
  * return 0, not exit 0 in dbc_go functions, as it will otherwise
    halt the entire maintainer script.
  * added three new maintainer-specifiable variables: 
      - dbc_generate_include_owner 
      - dbc_generate_include_perms
      - dbc_generate_include_args

  * limit mysql usernames to 16 characters long, as that's a built
    in limit.
  * the dbc_log functions now always produce output, as it's actually
    helpful to see what's going on.
  * dbconfig-generate-include has changed behavior.  -P/--dbport is now for 
    port and -m/--mode is for mode (was -P/--perms, but i can't think of
    a good name for port otherwise!).
  * forget the host/port responses if reconfigured to use a local connection.

    basic operations (install, upgrade, remove) work on a default
    debian postgres installation running on the same machine.  pretty
    much everything else still doesn't
  * error code is now more consolidated, providing more information
    to the user, and generally more robust.  there's still plenty of
    room for improvement.
  * we no longer default to keeping admin and app passwords stored
    in debconf.  by default they're removed after they're no longer
    needed by the postinst.  this can be overridden via a global config
    setting, though they're never stored in a config file.
  * the dbpass setting is no longer stored in the per-package config.
  * prompting for the admin and user passwords is now consolidated
    into two functions, which should help prevent code duplication
    in future situations where we need to ask for the information
    again (errors, include-file generators).
  * initial version of dbconfig-generate-include, for taking db
