New in Sympa 6.1.19 (Feb 6, 2014)
- Changes:
- [10207] src/etc/script/create_db.Oracle, src/etc/script/create_db.Pg,
- src/etc/script/create_db.SQLite, src/etc/script/create_db.Sybase,
- src/etc/script/create_db.mysql: Two new database fields appeared in this version and a field was modified.
- The new fields are prev_id_session (varchar(30)) and refresh_date_session (int(11)). they are located in the session_table table.
- The modified field is dkim_privatekey_bulkspool and is located in the bulkspool_table table. Its length went from varchar(1000) to varchar(2000).
- Sympa install using MySQL and SQLite backends will have no trouble at all, as the database structure is updated by Sympa. However, if you use Postgres, Oracle or Sybase, please have a look (respectively) at the create_db.Pg, create_db.Oracle or create_db.Sybase to check the definition of those fields. Please update your database structure before running Sympa.
- [10206] src/lib/Sympa/DatabaseDescription.pm: Changing length of DKIM private key in database to ensure database creation scripts will be updated.
- Bug fixes:
- [10205] src/lib/Sympa/DatabaseDescription.pm: new session fields (prev_id_session and refresh_date_session) were not declared in DatabaseDescription.pm. Consequently, they were not used in create_db_script.* update.

New in Sympa 6.1.3 (Nov 17, 2010)
- Bug fixes:
- src/lib/confdef.pm, wwsympa/Auth.pm: [Reported by N. Matthies] Since ***** revision 6168, when a user logged in using LDAP with an email address, ***** if this address was returned by the LDAP server, the user was ***** authentified with this address. Some administrators prefer to force the ***** usage of canonical addresses. If you want to let userssubscribers use ***** the address they used logged in with, set the value of the new ***** wwsympa.fcgi parameter "ldap_force_canonical_email" to '0'. src/lib/List.pm, src/lib/PlainDigest.pm, src/lib/tools.pm, src/sympa_wizard.pl.in, wwsympa/Challenge.pm, wwsympa/SympaSession.pm: [#4452][C.Hastie, S.Ikeda] Issue: handling of different character sets in PlainDigest.pm was poor. Messages were assumed to be in ascii, iso-8859-1 or a closely related character set, and if they were not all characters above \x80 were dumped to provide crude, lossy iso-8859-1 output.updated PlainDigest.pm which normalises all parts to UTF-8. Cleanup from Soji : - don't bother trying to find path to lynx unless use_lynx is true - anchor content-type test strings to end of string to avoid picking up malformed headers as per bug 3702 - local Text::Wrap variables - moved repeated code to get charset into sub _getCharset - added use of MIME::Charset to check charset aliases src/lib/tools.pm: Fixing a rule problme with Stripscript. src/lib/Message.pm: Plain text message lost linebreaks in the web archives. This was due to the text/plain parts in mesasges were handled by Stripscript. Fixed by only handling test/html parts with Stripscripts. src/etc/script/create_db.mysql: [Reported by Sungmo Ahn] Fix createdb.mysql.
