acl-2.0.17 and attr-2.0.9

Hello,

a bug in setfacl was reported independently by Pawel Wiecek
<coven-acl@vmh.net> and Ethan Benson <erbenson@alaska.net>. I have also
updated the acl and attr packages to the latest CVS versions. The
additional patch for the acl package should appear in CVS shortly.


Regards,
Andreas.


From the CHANGES files:

acl-2.0.17/doc/CHANGES
======================

2.0.17 (12 AUgust 2002)
* Setfacl tried to retrieve the default ACL of regular files, which
  resulted in errno = EACCES since 2.0.13, and broke setfacl's
  --restore operation.

2.0.16 (08 August 2002)
* Fix an IA64 alignment issue affecting several libacl functions.
* Updated libacl version number from libacl.so.1.0.2 to libacl.so.1.0.3

2.0.15 (08 July 2002)
* Fix configure warning (autoconf 2.13) - namely:
        "AC_TRY_RUN called without default to allow cross compiling"
* Fix a couple of typos in the documentation
* Fix a Debian-specific build issue

2.0.14 (04 July 2002)
* Build infrastructure updates so that configure options can be used
  to specify paths rather than semi-hard-coded path names controlled
  by ROOT/ROOT_PREFIX env variables; eg. now allows /lib64 and /lib32.

2.0.13 (25 June 2002)
* Make acl_get_file() fail for regular files and type ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT,
  as required by 1003.1e draft 17. Update manual page accordingly.
* Make acl_set_file() fail for regular files and type ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT,
  as required by 1003.1e draft 17. Update manual page accordingly.
* Updated libacl version number from libacl.so.1.0.1 to libacl.so.1.0.2.
* Updated chacl(1) command to behave correctly with this libacl change.

2.0.12 (25 June 2002)
* Increment the libacl version so that its possible for other packages
  like Samba to easily tell which library version has the libacl build
  bug fixed (without having to play configure games, etc).
* In other words, libacl.so.1.0.0 is now libacl.so.1.0.1; nothing else
  has changed in this release.


attr-2.0.9/doc/CHANGES
======================

[cvs]
        - Build updates to allow rpmbuild to build rpms (newer versions
          of rpm require this, as rpm itself can no longer build rpms)
        - Several section 3 man page corrections (minor)

attr-2.0.9 (04 July 2002)
        - Build infrastructure updates so that configure options can be
          used to specify paths rather than semi-hard-coded path names
          controlled by the PREFIX/ROOT_PREFIX environment variables; eg.
          now allows /lib64 and /lib32
        - Add system call numbers for the Alpha architecture
