Description Malte S. Stretz 2006-11-03 04:01:46 UTC
There's a new version of dnsmasq, nothing fancy, the changelog says:

version 2.35
	    Generate an "old" script event when a client does a DHCPREQUEST
	    in INIT-REBOOT or SELECTING state and the lease already
	    exists. Supply vendor and user class information to these
	    script calls.

	    Added support for Dragonfly BSD to src/config.h

	    Removed "Upgrading to 2.0" document, which is ancient
	    history now.

	    Tweak DHCP networking code for BSD, esp OpenBSD. Added a 
	    workaround for a bug in OpenBSD 4.0: there should finally
            be support for multiple interfaces under OpenBSD now.
	    Note that no version of dnsmasq before 2.35 will work for 
	    DHCP under OpenBSD 4.0 because of a kernel bug.
	    Thanks to Claudio Jeker, Jeb Campbell and Cristobal 
	    Palmer for help with this.

	    Optimised the cache code for the case of large
	    /etc/hosts. This is mainly to remove the O(n-squared)
	    algorithm which made reading large (50000 lines) files 
	    slow, but it also takes into account the size of 
	    /etc/hosts when building hash tables, so overall 
	    performance should be better. Thanks to "koko" for 
	    pointing out the problem.

ebuild with DBus and ISC support

I noticed that dnsmasq has optional D-Bus support since a few versions.  Here's a modified ebuild for 2.35 which enables it and also the ISC lease reader (fixes bug 152876).

Added 2.36 to the tree last night with USE flag for d-bus support.
