roundup 0.8.3

A simple-to-use and -install issue-tracking system with command-line, web and e-mail interfaces. Highly customisable.

Roundup is a simple-to-use and -install issue-tracking system with command-line, web and e-mail interfaces. It is based on the winning design from Ka-Ping Yee in the Software Carpentry “Track” design competition.

This 0.8.3 release adds one feature and fixes some bugs:

Feature:

• chinese translation by limodou

Fixed:

• fix reference to The Zope Book in Roundup FAQ

• disabled file logging in Roundup test suite (sf bug 1155649)

• return original string if message issue xref isn’t valid

• fix nosyreaction.py to stop it setting the nosy list unnecessarily (see doc/upgrading.txt for how to fix in your trackers)

• after logout, always display tracker home page

• web forms don’t create new items if no item properties are set from UI

• item creation failed if multilink fields had invalid entries (sf bug 1177602)

• fix bdist_rpm (sf bug 1164328)

• fix checking of “Email Access” for Anonymous email registration (sf bug 1177057)

• disable “Email Access” for Anonymous by default to stop spam regsitering users on public trackers

• send errors in the web interface to a logfile by default. Use the “debug” multiprocess mode (roundup-server) or the DEBUG_TO_CLIENT var (roundup.cgi) to have the errors appear in your browser

• fix setgid typo (sf bug 1171346)

• fix faulty find_template filename facility (sf bug 1163629)

• fix roundup-admin “export” so it creates the target dir if needed

• “fix” roundup-admin “import” to not use “universal newline support” since the csv module appears to have its own ideas about such things (sf bug 1163890)

• fix installation docs referring to old-style configuration variables

If you’re upgrading from an older version of Roundup you must follow the “Software Upgrade” guidelines given in the maintenance documentation.
