640:
641: V0.81 Moved to git. Testing git...
642:
643: V0.80 Some compilation fixes for BSD by Jeremy Chadwick
644: <freebsd@jdc.parodius.com>
645:
646: V0.78/0.79 some compilation fixes for BSD&others by
647: Thomas Klausner <wiz@NetBSD.org>
648:
649: V0.76 display load sharing hosts in --raw output.
650: added about button in gui.
651:
652: v0.75 Feelgood patch to move sprintf to snprintf. People might think
653: that sprintf might cause a buffer overflow. Now it's clean.
654: cut-paste patches: you can now copy an intermediate host to the
655: clipboard.
656:
657: v0.74 Martin Pels' patch to allow UDP probes.
658: KES reported a build problem. Turns out I need to install gtk-1.2
1.1.1.3 misho 659: on my development system, otherwise my release script causes the
1.1 misho 660: build to break.
661: changed some docs to advertise the new mailing list.
662: added documentation for the Mac OS X compilation problem.
663: added -Wno-pointer-sign to the compiler options.
664: Nico Lichtmaier's cleanup-gtk patch. (now mtr uses a more modern
665: dialect of gtk).
666:
1.1.1.3 misho 667: v0.73 Some security patches. Although MTR drops privileges as soon
1.1 misho 668: as possible after opening the sockets, it still had some
669: sprintf calls, which have now been converted into snprintf.
670:
671: v0.72 Fix signed/unsigned bug in IPV6 part
672: improved random packet size behaviour. --REW
673:
674: v0.71 Some IPV6 fixes, introduce packet size cmdline option.
675: (was already present as a cmdline argument)
676:
677: v0.70 Antinio submitted a cumulative patch containing some
678: nice improvements. He also submitted an automake patch
679: that causes mtr to no longer compile on my system. I
680: refuse to have mtr "in the dark" that I can't test-compile
681: the dist.
682:
683: v0.69 make distclean should now also remove "rej" files.
684: Antonio Querubin: update getopt.h . More cleanups using
685: new infrastructure.
686: rcw: Fixed IPV6 support: When compiled in an IPV6-supporting
687: environment, but when the kernel doesn't support IPV6, mtr would
688: fail to start.
689:
690: v0.68 included some old patches.
691: included patch from Antonio Querubin for better IPV6 support
692: restructured some more whitespace.
693: added mtr.h where "global" things should go. Not finished
694: moving things around, but now that the infrastructure is there,
695: it should be easy.
696:
697: v0.67 Bad keyboarding by REW caused this one out the door. Sorry.
698: No changes.
699:
700: v0.66 Through the Debian bugtracking system a bug report and
1.1.1.3 misho 701: fix was sent my way, that deals with stupid optimization
1.1 misho 702: trying to save some 768 bytes of memory, sacrificing "it
703: works" on a different architecture... (default char signedness)
704:
705: v0.65 Dancer Vesperman noted that mtr no longer traces past
706: a section of non-responding hosts. Apparently I added
707: a line in net.c that didn't make sense in mtr-0.56. I
708: can't find the reason for adding that line, so someone
709: who thinks (s)he needs it, should holler.
710:
711: v0.64 Philippe suggests to do the time_t thingy before socket.h.
712: Apparently, MAC OS X doesn't compile socket.h otherwise.
713:
714: v0.63 Suggestion by RCW: Add -lm at line 70 of Configure.in.
715: On my system no ill effects ensued, so this version released
1.1.1.3 misho 716: so that he can test if it still works on his system.
1.1 misho 717:
718: Let me add that it's stupid that I have to specify that this
719: this program now requires Automake version 1.5 to build, where
720: Automake was intended to make software independent of different
721: versions of build software!
722:
723: For those concerned about the above statement: If you're just
724: trying to compile and use MTR, there is no need for automake.
725: Just when you're messing with the configure and build system of
726: mtr is automake a tool you need.
727:
728: v0.62 Apparently someone changed gethostbyname into gethostbyname2
729: in mtr.c in an attempt to add IPV6 support. For systems without
730: ipv6 support, the old gethostbyname should be used! Linux
731: has the call even if you don't enable IPV6. Thanks Gary (rsub)
732:
733: v0.61 Attempt to get/print the local IP address. Now shows as
734: 0.0.0.0 :-( Hints and tips appreciated! -- REW
735: Lots of blank space reformatting.
736: moved the interface address setting to net.c (where it
737: belongs).
738:
739: v0.60 John Thacker submitted a surprisingly simple patch to
740: enable linking against GTK2. (up to 2.4.0)
741:
742: v0.59 Josh Martin suggested to add some bounds checking to
743: the dynamic field code. This caused me to delve in, and
744: rewrite some things. Now 50 lines of code less, but cleaner
745: code. :-)
746:
1.1.1.3 misho 747: v0.58 I don't remember. Forgot to update this. :-( Check the
1.1 misho 748: patch.
749:
750: v0.57 Lots of whitespace cleanups. And a DNS fix: Don't do DNS
751: lookups in raw mode with -n specified.
752:
753: v0.56 Fixed compile warnings. Now compiles with -Wall. If your
754: compiler finds things mine didn't feel free to shout.
755:
756: v0.55 Cleanup patch. I'm going to do some maintenance on MTR,
757: but I want to be able to say: Can you see which version
758: fixed/broke things for you, so you're going to see a
759: bunch of new releases soon.
760:
761: v0.54 Added "scrolling" patch from Roland Illig, to allow
762: scrolling in text mode. I've always wanted this......
763:
764: v0.53 Added fix for raw mode.
765:
766: v0.52 Mostly cleanups from Brett Johnson on MacOS X. It may
767: clean up some compilation problems on MacOS X as well.
768:
769: v0.51 Fixed the bug introduced by the previous select loop fix...
770: Thanks Evgeniy
771:
772: v0.50 Make "interface address" option work.
773: Changes to "select" loop to allow window resizes (select
774: interruption) to work. Thanks Mike!
775:
776: v0.49 Fix compilation problems on several platforms.
777:
778: v0.48 Draw names in red (GTK) or bold (Curses) if host doesn't
779: respond.
780:
1.1.1.3 misho 781: v0.47 Fixed a (believed-) non-exploitable buffer overflow.
1.1 misho 782: Thanks Damian.
783:
784: v0.46 Included patch to be able to specify outgoing interface
785: address.
786:
787: v0.45 People are pressuring me to release new versions with their
788: changes. That's fine. Now this version just adds dynamic
789: switching between numeric / dns names, and some minor
790: stuff I forgot. This release serves as a code-sync-release.
791: new version with even more new stuff in about two weeks!
1.1.1.3 misho 792: I'm afraid I don't know how to fix the MacOS-X compilation
1.1 misho 793: problems in the source. Help wanted...
794:
795: v0.44 David Stone adds the "last" column to the gtk version.
796:
797: v0.43 Compile fixes.
798:
799: v0.41 Added afr's patch to allow disabling of gtk without Robn's hack.
800: Made report mode report the newly added extra resolution.
801:
802: v0.40 Fixed some problems with HPUX and SunOS.
803: Included Olav Kvittem's patch to do packetsize option.
804: Made the timekeeping in micro seconds.
805:
806: v0.39 Forgot the parentheses around the previous fix... :-(
807:
808: v0.38 fixed some dubious code in dns.c (noted by someone's lint)
809:
810: v0.37 Added Bill Bogstad's "show the local host & time" patch.
811: Added R. Sparks' show-last-ping patch, submitted by Philip Kizer.
812:
813: v0.36 Added Craigs change-the-interval-on-the-fly patch.
814: Added Moritz Barsnick's "do something sensible if host not found"
815: patch.
816: Some cleanup of both Craigs and Moritz' patches.
817:
818: v0.35 Added Craig Milo Rogers pause/resume for GTK patch.
819: Added Craig Milo Rogers cleanup of "reset". (restart at the beginning)
820: Net_open used to send a first packet. After that the display-driver
821: got a chance to distort the timing by taking its time to
822: initialize.
823:
824: v0.34 Added Matt's nifty "use the icmp unreachables to do the timing" patch.
825: Added Steve Kann's pause/resume patch.
826:
827: v0.33 Fixed the Linux glibc resolver problems.
828: Fixed the off-by-one problem with -c option.
829:
830: v0.32 Fixed the FreeBSD bug detection stuff.
831:
832: v0.31 Fixed a few documentation issues. -- Matt
833: Changed the autoconf stuff to find the resolver library on
834: Solaris. -- REW
835: Cleaned up the autoconf.in file a bit. -- Matt.
836:
837: v0.30 Fixed a typo in the changelog (NEWS) entry for 0.27. :-)
838: added use of "MTR_OPTIONS" environment variable for defaults.
839:
840: v0.29 Lots of stuff.
841: Neato overview display by David Sward.
842: FreeBSD does wrong in the kernel the same that Solaris/x86 (see
843: note for 0.27 does right. It forces mtr to send bad packets....
844: Adjusted "not too much at once" algorithm. Now probing
845: continues as long as not more than 5 hosts are unknown.
846: Returning packets usually allow us to do the first sweep
847: in one go.
848:
849: v0.28 DNS lookups are now suppressed if you don't want them.
850:
851: v0.27
852: Fixed bug that showed up on Solaris/x86.
853: GTK mainloop now runs as it's supposed to.
854:
855: v0.26
856: Added "-n" flag for numeric output.
857: fixed IP numbers displaying backwards.
858: GTK mainloop now runs at 10 packets per second.
859: - That's too much if there are only 3 hosts
860: - that's too little if there are 20 hosts.
861: -> Someone tell me how to change the "ping-timeout"
862: callback time in gtk. Can't find it in the docs.
863: The default for "hostname" is now "localhost" so that
864: you can start mtr without any arguments and later
865: fill in the host you want to trace to.
866:
867: v0.25
868: Included two "raw" formats. One for separating GUI from
869: the setuid program, and one suitable for later parsing and
870: displaying. Volunteers wanted to separate the GTK
871: backend. Thanks to Bertrand Leconte for contributing
872: the format that's now called "split".
873:
874: v0.24
875: Fixed number of probes. Accidentally was counted per
876: packet sent instead of per round of packets.
877:
878: v0.23
879: Fixed Sparc alignment problem with statmalloc
880:
881: v0.22
882: Roger has take over maintenance.
883: mtr now uses an "int" to pass options to the kernel.
884: Makes things work on Solaris and *BSD I'm told.
885: mtr doesn't fire off a flurry of packets when a new
886: second comes around. Instead they are spaced evenly
887: around the whole second. This allows people with a
888: relatively slow first link to do meaningful measurements
889: of whatever is behind that.
890:
891: v0.21
892: mtr now drops root permissions after it acquires the raw
893: sockets it needs.
894: mtr should be a bit happier about building under SCO and
895: Solaris.
896: Fixed the problem with packets arriving after a reset.
897:
898: v0.20
899: The build process for mtr now uses automake.
900: Fixed a build problem for Irix.
901: Now uses non-blocking DNS code, so mtr can attempt
902: to do reverse lookup on multiple hosts at once.
903: Fewer packets are sent out each cycle, so mtr
904: doesn't hog quite so much bandwidth.
905:
906: v0.19
907: Fixed a type-o in curses.c
908:
909: v0.18
910: Fixed the network code to work properly under FreeBSD.
911: Hopefully this will fix some other operating systems too.
912: Also, fixed a build problem and the DNS hanging bug.
913:
914: v0.17
915: Fixed the configure script to always like with the math
916: library. Added an icon.
917:
918: v0.16
919: Added one #include to select.c. Some people were unable
920: to build mtr without this line.
921:
922: v0.15
923: Both the build process and the networking code have
924: been cleaned up and reorganized. mtr now builds
925: cleanly with GTK+ 0.99.8.
926:
927: --- Below is the contents of the old "Changelog file" that annoyed some
928: people as it didn't contain any recent changes/news.
929:

937: + Added this file so that automake won't complain.
938: + Commented out the test for res_init in configure.in;
939: it does not work for GLIBC2 systems (e.g., RedHat 7+).
940: + Fixed the subordinate CHECK_LIBS on the test for res_mkquery,
941: so that they test for res_mkquery, not res_init.
