Changelog for openvas-scanner-4.0+beta3-2.1.i586.rpm :

* Wed Aug 28 2013 johann.luceAATTwanadoo.fr- Fix OBS Warning
* Tue Aug 27 2013 johann.luceAATTwanadoo.fr- Adding systemd native init script- Adding doc package- Cleaning spec files
* Thu Apr 18 2013 johann.luceAATTwanadoo.fr- Update to 3.4.0 (first release for OpenVAS-6)
* Minimum requirements for openvas-libraries: Increased from 5.0 to 6.0.
* Minimum requirements for GnuTLS: Increased from 2.2 to 2.8.
* New optional OTP version 1.1 which is like 1.0 but sends less info to the client initially.
* Changed behaviour of NVT sync script \"openvas-nvt-sync\": It will now delete scripts not part of the when using rsync, except for the directory \"private/\".
* A Migration option \"--migrate-to-private\" of the sync-script will move private scripts into the \"private/\" directory. The Feed Sync will stop with an error until the \"private/\" is created. As soon as this directory is created, the synchronisation will ultimately delete all files in the local feed directory that are not part of the regular Feed.
* Changed: The magic that NVTs of category ACT_SETTINGS were always enabled even when user disabled them has been removed. OTP clients now have to take care to enable as needed.
* Send NODESC and NOSUMMARY instead of whole plugin description and summary when no result is returned and plugin has all new nvt tags.
* Newline in script tags are now escaped.
* The size of tags is not limited anymore.
* Internal use of NVTI references by OID to allow using the NVTI cache properly. This significantly lowers the memory consumption per Scanner process.
* Improve bug tracking by directing diagnostics to the log file.
* Removed deprecated code.
* Various code and build cleanups.
* Removed built-in logfile rotation. It is not a good idea to try to circumvent system environment technology for logrotate.
* New command line switch \"--only-cache\" to just build the cache and exit.
* Fixed a bug when NVT lacks family specification.
* Add private directory for RSYNC_DELETE to greenbone-nvt-sync.
* Improve bug tracking by directing diagnostics to the log file.
* Internal code cleanups for NVTI cache handling.
* Fixed a bug when NVT lacks family specification.
* Closed a number of memory leaks.

* The CMake infrastructure has been cleaned up to ensure that compilation with modern gccs works.
* The greenbone-nvt-sync script has been updated.
* OpenVAS Scanner now requires at least glib 2.16 and gnutls 2.2, matching the requirements of OpenVAS Libraries.
* New scanner preference \"reverse_lookup\", defaulting to \"no\" (the previous behaviour)
* For network wide scanning, mandatory keys are ignored.
* Don\'t start the second scan phase when network scan is enabled and user requests \"stop\" during the first phase.
* Send an ERRMSG to the client when terminating a process.
* Furter improvements to the build system.

* Default port is now 9391 where the OpenVAS Manager expects the Scanner by default.
* Command line options \"--dump-cfg\" and \"--gen-config\" are removed.
* openvassd does not need anymore a \"openvassd.conf\" file. It uses its defaults and a possibly present conf-file can overwrite settings.
* openvas-mkcert got a additional switch \"-f\" to force overwriting certificates.
* openvas-mkcert does not create a openvassd.conf anymore as it shares the defaults with openvassd.
