Attention to Debian users;

I've prepared the fixed package and also contacted to Debian Security Team for
an urgent security upload.  Since then you may wish to update your package from
the following URL:

  http://l10n-turkish.alioth.debian.org/debian/elog_2.5.7+r1558-1_i386.deb

Or you can also make an update via apt-get by adding the below line to your
'/etc/apt/sources.list' file:

  deb http://l10n-turkish.alioth.debian.org/debian/ ./

> The second vulnerability had to do with write passwords. If you put a "write
> password = xxx" statement into your config file, it was still possible to
> download the config file with a special hand-written URL, and decode the
> write password, which is usually only base-64 encoded unless you haven't
> compiled elog with the -DHAVE_CRYPT flag.

FYI, Debian package has already been compiled with this flag.

Hi to all,

I've prepared a new Debian package.  This version will probably be the one
which you'll find in Sarge/stable.

There are some invasive changes in this version which call for a serious
test.  In accordance with a suggestion, I've changed the configuration
mechanism.  For details, please read the NEWS.Debian file attached.

Could the Debian users who follow this forum test it and give some feedback?
You can download the package from the following link:

  http://l10n-turkish.alioth.debian.org/debian/elog_2.5.8+r1592-1_i386.deb

Thanks in advance for your participation,

Thanks for the test.  Please note that, /etc/default/elog is partially auto
created during the installation.  All options except PIDFILE and CONFFILE are
currently listed (as configured or commented out).  If you didn't see these
options (after the update), there must be a problem.   Did you mean the lack of
PIDFILE and CONFFILE in the default file?

Hello,

I would like to utilize the "New Entries" button on the quick filter bar, but it dates back to 1969.  Is there a way to customize this or fix it?

Attached the shell scripts using awk and sed how I have migrated two separated logbooks into one single and how I re-adjusted certain attributes.

I develop multiple client server apps and web apps deployed on intranets. I
need my users to send me bugs with screenshots attached.

So I'm interested in auto opening a new elog page in an embedded browser and
automatically doing an attachment. I've seen a couple messages about
recently added Javascript hooks (message 465). The message specified a URL
that would fire off javascript(http://localhost/demo/?cmd=New&js=test.js).
Now apparently that wasn't fully working or at least you couldn't bring up
multiple alerts. Has that been fixed, or is it just a problem with alerts?
Can I write a url that has my attributes, plus a short js script that just
adds an attachment?

Anyhow, any info on where this functionality is would be appreciated. I'm
going back to my mgmt for signoff on using this, and if I get it (fairly
high probability), then I'll have a coder start implementing it. :-)

BTW, great tool! Very clean design.

Cheers,
Robin

I'm trying to configure this thing to be able to filter on a set of 
criteria, choose select, choose toggle all, and then choose "Move to 
Complete Work Requests".

I've been able to select a specific logbook entry and move it, and I've 
been able to filter and select and toggle, but I can't figure out how to 
get the Move To option to show up on the main logbook menu....

what am I missing?
