v0.92.0 08-Oct-2006 - 16-Oct-2007
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
general:
|
||
|
|
With this version de default internal character encoding is
|
||
|
|
UTF-8. BBS users who have a UTF-8 terminal can use the bbs in
|
||
|
|
UTF-8 mode and should have no troubles at all reading and
|
||
|
|
writing messages in several language encodings.
|
||
|
|
Fixed building on FreeBSD, tested on 5.3 and 6.2.
|
||
|
|
Added support to link to the GeoIP library. If it's present on
|
||
|
|
your system, mbcico, mbsebbs, mbnewusr and mbnntp will log the
|
||
|
|
country from which the connection is made.
|
||
|
|
Added example telnet login for NetBSD.
|
||
|
|
Dropped support for NetBSD < 3.0.
|
||
|
|
Added support for Ubuntu.
|
||
|
|
Added support for the ARM processor.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
upgrade:
|
||
|
|
Because some directories will be moved, a special upgrade
|
||
|
|
procedure is needed. Take the following steps:
|
||
|
|
1. Don't install the new source yet and make a backup!
|
||
|
|
2. In the source topdir run "make clean".
|
||
|
|
3. Unpack the new source.
|
||
|
|
4. Build new source, "./configure" and "make".
|
||
|
|
5. Run "./mbsetup-0.92.0/mbsetup", enter global setup and
|
||
|
|
leave with save. this 'should' move all your existing
|
||
|
|
language files to the new directory structure.
|
||
|
|
6. "su", run "make install" and restart the bbs.
|
||
|
|
7. "exit".
|
||
|
|
If you didn't do steps 1 and 2 (automatic updates) and you
|
||
|
|
installed the source over the old source, you will have some
|
||
|
|
extra files in the lang subdir of the source. No big deal.
|
||
|
|
If you didn't run step 5 then the new language paths have
|
||
|
|
the default files from source and not your own. Your own files
|
||
|
|
are then still under ~/english/*.* ~/dutch/*.* etc. Move the
|
||
|
|
contents of these subdirs into ~/share/int/menus/en/* etc.
|
||
|
|
Compile and install this new version.
|
||
|
|
In all macro files html.* change the charset to UTF-8. You will
|
||
|
|
find these in /opt/mbse/share/int/macro/*/html.*
|
||
|
|
If you still have all default macro files then in the source
|
||
|
|
directory mbsebbs/examples simply run "make macros" to install
|
||
|
|
the updated versions.
|
||
|
|
Run "mbfile index -f " once to regenerate all download html
|
||
|
|
index pages with UTF-8 encoding. Check the error.log for
|
||
|
|
errors.
|
||
|
|
In mbsetup menu 1.3.7 change logo.asc into logo.ans and make
|
||
|
|
sure you have that file. A note about the logo file, it will
|
||
|
|
be displayed before we know if a user has a utf-8 or ansi
|
||
|
|
terminal, so change your logo screen so that it has no ansi
|
||
|
|
grafic characters, just plain ascii with ansi color codes.
|
||
|
|
Start and leave mbsetup, this will upgrade the newfiles and
|
||
|
|
filefind reports to set a defaults CHRS kludge CP437 2 which
|
||
|
|
is good for reports with ANSI blockgraphics.
|
||
|
|
The next step is optional but advised to make the symbolic
|
||
|
|
links in the download areas without path information:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
mbse$ cd /opt/mbse/ftp
|
||
|
|
mbse$ find pub -type l -exec rm '{}' \;
|
||
|
|
mbse$ mbfile check
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Make sure mbtask is restarted.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
