* Thu May 13 1999 Michael K. Johnson <johnsonm@redhat.com>
- defattr was clobbering nobody ownership
- decided that a separate user id would be preferable -- part of
the point of "nobody" is only being able to edit world-editable
files, as a general rule.
- added %build
- used daemon function so that logging is done right
* Fri Apr 16 1999 Michael Maher <mike@redhat.com>
- cleaned up spec file a bit, built for 6.0
* Sun Jan 31 1999 Stefan Waldherr <stefan@waldherr.org>
/var/log/junkbuster set to nobody. Added /etc/junkbuster/imagelist
to allow more sophisticated matching of blocked images. Logrotate
logfile. Added files for auto-updating the blocklist et al.
* Wed Dec 16 1998 Stefan Waldherr <stefan@waldherr.org>
Configure blank version via config file. No separate blank
version anymore. Added Roland's <roland@spinnaker.rhein.de>
patch to show a logo instead of a blank area. Added a suggestion
from Alex <alex@cocoa.demon.co.uk>: /var/lock/subsys/junkbuster.
More regexps in the blocklist. Prepared the forwardfile for
squid. Extended image regexp with help from gabriel
<somlo@CS.ColoState.EDU>.
* Thu Nov 19 1998 Stefan Waldherr <stefan@waldherr.org>
All RPMs now identify themselves in the show-proxy-args page.
Released Windoze version. Run junkbuster as nobody instead of
root.
* Fri Oct 30 1998 Stefan Waldherr <stefan@waldherr.org>
Newest version. First release (hence the little version number
mixture -- 2.0.2-0 instead of 2.0-7). This version tightens
security over 2.0.1; some multi-user sites will need to change
the listen-address in the configuration file. The blank version of
the Internet Junkbuster has a more sophisticated way of replacing
images. All RPMs identify themselves in the show-proxy-args page.
* Thu Sep 24 1998 Stefan Waldherr <stefan@waldherr.org>
Modified the blocking feature, so that only GIFs and JPEGs are
blocked and replaced but not HTML pages. Thanks to
"Gerd Flender" <plgerd@informatik.uni-siegen.de> for this nice
idea. Added numerous stuff to the blocklist. Keep patches in
seperate files and no longer in diffs (easier to maintain).
* Wed Jun 17 1998 Stefan Waldherr <swa@cs.cmu.edu>
Moved config files to /etc/junkbuster directory, moved man page,
added BuildRoot directive (Thanks to Alexey Nogin <ayn2@cornell.edu>)
Made new version junkbuster-raw (which is only a stripped version of
the junkuster rpm, i.e. without my blocklist, etc.)
* Wed Jun 17 1998 (2.0-1)
Uhm, not that much. Just a new junkbuster version that
fixes a couple of bugs ... and of course a bigger
blocklist with the unique Now-less-ads-than-ever(SM)
feature.
Oh, one thing: I changed the default user agent to Linux -- no
need anymore to support Apple.
* Wed Jun 17 1998 (2.0-0)
Now-less-ads-than-ever (SM)
compiled with gcc instead of cc
compiled with -O3, thus it should be a little faster
show-proxy-args now works
/etc/junkbuster.init wasn't necessary
* Wed Jun 17 1998 (1.4)
some more config files were put into /etc
The junkbuster-blank rpm returns a 1x1 pixel image, that gets
displayed by Netscape instead of the blocked image.

further info.
* Wed Jun 17 1998 (1.3)
The program has been moved to /usr/sbin (from /usr/local/bin)
Init- and stopscripts (/etc/rc.d/rc*) have been added so
that the junkbuster starts automatically during bootup.
The /etc/blocklist file is much more sophisticated. Theoretically
one should e.g. browse all major US and German newspapers without
seeing one annoying ad.
junkbuster.init was modified. It now starts junkbuster with an
additional "-r @" flag.
