_________________________________________________________________
What's new?
This file lists major and incompatible changes in Eggdrop versions.
You can find the full list of changes in doc/Changes1.8.
For support, feel free to visit us on Freenode #eggdrop.
For upgrading from a pre-1.6 version of Eggdrop: Read the UPGRADING file.
In general, always make a BACKUP of your config and user-/chanfile.
_________________________________________________________________
Eggdrop v1.8.3:
Tcl-API changes:
- Added "handle ipaddress botport userport" syntax to the addbot Tcl
command.
General changes:
- Fixed a bug where ssl-enabled ports were not able to be reverted to
non-SSL ports via the setuser Tcl command.
- SSL certs: Fail earlier if SSL certs have issues. Also fatally error
if only one of ssl-privatekey/certificate config settings is set.
- Correctly check against invalid flags with the .match partyline
command and matchattr Tcl command.
- Prevent loop when writing to stdout in foreground mode that results
in a segfault.
- Lots of additional error checking against values for .+bot, .chaddr
and the Tcl addbot command.
- No longer trigger CHON binds when returning from a control script.
- Added the '.resetconsole' command, allowing a user to reset console
flags to those specified in the config file.
Botnet changes:
- Added the 'l' console flag to handle messages sent from linked bots,
reserving the 'b' console flag to handle messages related to botnet-
linkings.
- Split the "raw share traffic" flag into incoming (h) and outgoing (g).
- Fixed a race condition in SSL userfile sharing, causing the transfer
to stall with 511 bytes missing.
- Fixed a bug introduced in v1.8.2 with copy-to-tmp, where the userfile
being received is now properly being sent to a tmpfile first if
copy-to-tmp is set.
- Botnet sharing: A slave will now use the address of the hub (to
which it's succesfully connected) instead of an IP given by the hub
which was wrong in certain cases (especially in NAT situations).
- Bots request existing channel flags for users upon adding a new
channel.
Deprecations:
- Deprecated the "ipv4address:botport/userport" and
"[ipv6address]:botport/userport" address formats for addbot.
_________________________________________________________________
Eggdrop v1.8.2:
eggdrop.conf changes:
- temp-path renamed to tmpfile and its purpose changed.
It is now only used by filesys.mod/transfer.mod and optional.
- blowfish-use-mode is a new setting for Tcl encrypt/decrypt.
Allows using CBC instead of ECB mode for encryption.
Tcl scripts not using the same mode are incompatible with each other.
Does NOT affect password hashing for the userfile.
CBC will be the NEW DEFAULT in a later version of eggdrop.
Will be removed in a future Eggdrop version and forced to CBC.
- global-* is renamed to default-*.
This clarifies their purpose as default channel settings,
not ones that override for existing channels.
global-* still works for backwards compatibility.
Tcl-API changes:
- encrypt/decrypt: These commands can now encrypt/decrypt in CBC
mode instead of the current ECB mode. This does NOT affect password
hashing for the userfile.
- getuser: Can now be called without a second argument. Returns a flat
key/value list (dict) of settings for that user.
- configureargs: New global variable holding the ./configure arguments.
This is a _string_, not a list. User needs to split it themselves.
- maskhost: New types 30-39 set hostmask to * (to allow e.g. nick!*@*).
General changes:
- Improved command line argument parsing.
- Portuguese language file added.
- Eggdrop no longer changes nick on every rehash if altnick uses '?'.
- Terminal-mode (commandline -nt) always has full owner access now.
- Allow spaces in server passwords in serverlist.
_________________________________________________________________
Eggdrop v1.8.1:
Autobotchk - Added functionality improvements to the tried-and-true
autobotchk script, allowing characters such as {} and [] to be used in
filenames. Additionally, it can also now handle long botnetnicks for
pidfiles and check for additional sourced config files.
.who linkedbot output - Truncates listings appropriately.
eggdrop.conf - Update source code to match defaults given in Eggdrop
configuration file.
Minutely hook - The minutely hook was only called for missed minutes mod
60, now it is still listed in minutes but it can be greater than 60.
Options summary - At the end of configure, Eggdrop now displays a handy
summary of basic options used during compile. It will display the OS
and Tcl version found, along with if TLS, IPv6 and SSL are enabled.
New OpenSSL version detection - A recent update to the OpenSSL libs
rendered some of our checks invalid, particularly the hexstr2buf call.
This is now fixed.
Implemented version.h - Moved previously hard-coded version strings to
version.h and update them via misc/setpatch instead of misc/addpatch.
This also fixes inconsistencies in setting the internal version
integer.
Compile cleanup - Fixed some compiler warnings.
General bugfixes - Small code tweaks to eliminate some rare error
conditions.
________________________________________________________________________
Eggdrop v1.8.0:
MODULES
While most 3rd party modules that worked on Eggdrop1.6.x should still work
with Eggdrop1.8.x, many of them contain a version check that only allows
them to run on 1.6.x bots. We have removed the version check from some of
the more popular modules provide them at
ftp://eggheads.org/pub/eggdrop/modules/1.8/
SCRIPTS
All 3rd party Tcl scripts that work with Eggdrop1.6.x fully work with
Eggdrop1.8.x.
ENCODINGS
Eggdrop1.8 has been modified to support the utf-8 encoding with a fallback
of iso8859-1. Other single-byte encodings are not yet supported, but
full support for them is planned for a later version of Eggdrop1.8.
IPV6
Full IPv6 support for servers, telnet and script connections, dcc and
botnet. See doc/IPV6 for more information.
SSL
Full SSL support has been added for all kinds of connections, including
certificate verification and authorization, and partyline SSL. See doc/TLS.
BOTNET
Because 1.8 bots attempt to link with SSL if available everytime, make
sure you generate a certificate on your hub bot with "make sslcert" after
"make install".
CONFIG
eggdrop.conf changes:
To ease the transition from Eggdrop1.6.x to Eggdrop1.8.0, we have created
a list of config file changes needed at http://eggheads.org/eggconf180.txt.
Perhaps the most important changes are the removal of the my-ip and
my-hostname settings, replaced by vhost4, vhost6 and the listen-addr
setting. Check our new eggdrop.conf for examples.
eggdrop-basic.conf:
Eggdrop1.8.0 includes a simpler configuration file called
eggdrop-basic.conf, which is recommended for users that do not need
advanced Eggdrop features such as botnets. We still recommend reading the
full eggdrop.conf and copying settings over that you might want to modify.
WIRE REMOVED
The wire module has been removed from eggdrop 1.8. You can still get it
from ftp://eggheads.org/pub/eggdrop/modules/1.8/wire-2.1.tar.gz
Note that with ssl support you can have encrypted botnet and partyline
without wire.mod.
DOCUMENTATION
Documentation has been updated to reflect new and removed commands and
variables. Almost all files have changed, so take a look at them.
TCL COMMANDS
A lot of changes have been made to Tcl commands. Please look at
doc/tcl-commands.doc to see them.
