---------------
pollen (3.7-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=low

  * debian/control:
    - demote haveged to suggests, based on feedback from Seth Arnold
      in LP: #1246098
  * pollinate:
    - ensure both -c and -i can be used, without losing CURL_OPTS,
      as identified by Seth Arnold in LP: #1246098
  * pollinate:
    - drop unused IPV6 variable, per review by Seth Arnold in LP: #1246098
  * debian/pollen.postinst:
    - use pollen as our fake email address, suggested by Seth Arnold
      in LP: #1246098
  * debian/pollinate.cron.d:
    - add notes in the comments about NIST DRBG Special Publication 800-90A
      recommendations on reseeding
    - add notes in the comments about why we choose a random minute
    - fix a bug, that was causing the cronjob to run far more frequently
      than desired
    - Addresses some issues raised by Seth Arnold in LP: #1246098
  * debian/pollen.upstart, pollen.8, pollen.go:
    - add DEVICE as the 3rd argument to the pollen server in the upstart
      script
    - test that DEVICE is a special in upstart
    - document that the DEVICE is now a required argument
  * debian/pollen.install, Makefile, pollen:
    - build static binary at package build time, rather than dynamically
      compiling at each run, per feedback from Seth Arnold in LP: #1246098
    - use a very simple, basic Makefile
  * debian/control:
    - move golang-go to a build-dependency, rather than a runtime dependency
  * debian/control, debian/pollen.postinst, debian/pollen.postrm,
    debian/pollen.upstart:
    - create a new user, pollen:daemon, in the postinst, remove in postrm
    - depend on libcap2-bin, which provides setcap
    - use setcap to allow the pollen binary to bind to privileged ports
    - run the pollen daemon as the pollen user
    - per feedback from Seth Arnold in LP: #1246098
  * debian/pollen.upstart:
    - use setuid in upstart to run the pollen daemon as the pollen user
  * debian/pollen.postinst:
    - change pollen user's shell to /bin/false
  * debian/control, debian/pollen.install, debian/pollen.postinst,
    debian/rules, usr.bin.pollen:
    - add an apparmor profile for the pollen server, per suggestion
      by Seth Arnold in LP: #1246098
    - big thanks to Jamie Strandboge and Seth Arnold for assistance
  * debian/pollinate.postinst:
    - these chowns are not necessary; thanks for catching Michael Terry
      in LP: #1246098
  * debian/control: LP: #1259014
    - have the pollen server depend on ent, which is used by the
      check_pollen nagios script
