Package: davfs2
Version: 1.1.2-3
Severity: wishlist
Hi, You're probably aware already that there is a new davfs2 version 1.2.0
released April 7th (2007).
Release Name: 1.2.0
Notes:
This is the first internationalized version of davfs2. At
the moment there is only a german translation, but others
will follow.
davfs2 now supports client certificates and selfmade server
certificates.
The binary version is no longer statically linked. You will
need libneon-0.25 installed on your system. You should
prefer building from the source package anyway.
Changes:
What is new in davfs2 1.2.0
===========================
- davfs2 now supports localized versions of messages and
man pages using GNU gettext and the po4a tools. Currently
there is a german translation, but other languages will
follow. You are invited to contribute.
- davfs2 needs a system user 'davfs2' and a system group
'davfs2'. Normal users must be member of group 'davfs2'
in order to mount (no longer group 'users'). You may
change the system user and group at configuration time.
You will have to create the system user and group
manually. The system user should not have a shell.
Proposed home directory is '/var/cache/davfs2', but this
does not matter.
- davfs2 supports client certificates.
- davfs2 can use server certificates, stored on disk, that
can not be verified the normal way, like selfmade
certificates.
- davfs can translate the encoding of file names.
- There are two new man pages: umount.davfs and davfs2.conf.
- File system is mounted, even when the first request times
out. When access to the file system is tried, an error is
returned until the connection comes up. (This feature had
been removed in the last release by mistake.)
Thanks!
