  1. reportbug (3.48) unstable; urgency=low
  2. There were some infrastructure changes, in order to provide a better BTS
  3. service, that made the previous SMTP server 'bugs.debian.org' no more
  4. working as expected, so we now provide another host for SMTP for reportbug:
  5. 'reportbug.debian.org'.
  6. If you are using any other debian.org host to act as SMTP host for reportbug,
  7. we encourage you to update your configuration accordingly.
  8. At the same time, if you use 'reportbug.debian.org' we set automatically the
  9. port to '587' (but even '25' port can be used) in order to work around the
  10. filter some ISPes apply to outcoming connections to port '25'.
  11. As a side effect, using 'reportbug.debian.org' the '--debug' option stops
  12. working, since relay is not allowed by that host, but since it's mainly an
  13. interal-use-only option, we're sure it won't impact you a lot.

  15. reportbug (3.18) unstable; urgency=high
  16. The proper SMTP setting for reporting bugs to Debian without a working
  17. local mailer has changed to 'bugs.debian.org'. reportbug will noisily
  18. override any .reportbugrc settings for the old mail relay... however,
  19. you would be best advised to update .reportbugrc files accordingly.

  21. reportbug (2.47) unstable; urgency=medium
  22. The dependency relationships between reportbug and Python's locale
  23. support modules have changed in this version of reportbug:
  24. . python2.3-iconvcodec is now a Recommendation.
  25. . python2.3-cjkcodec is now recommended as an alternative.
  26. Users of Unicode (UTF-*), ISO-8859-*, and KOI8 locales may use
  27. reportbug without either module installed. These encodings are
  28. supported by the base install of Python 2.3.
  29. Users of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean-language locales who do not use
  30. a UTF encoding should use python2.3-cjkcodec.
  31. Users of other locales should use python2.3-iconvcodec.
  32. In addition, reportbug will now issue a warning on startup if the
  33. encoders installed on your system are insufficient for encoding the
  34. character set used by your locale. (Previously, this would lead to a
  35. mysterious crash with a "LookupError" later in the reporting process.)
