1.0.1rc3 Debian Packaging TODO

[dclark]

gregcoit | so I built and installed the 1.0.1rc3 debs.  Now I get Server failure:       
         | Protocol Error: 401 Unauthorized                                             
    solj | gregcoit: are you using ssl certs for authentication?                        
gregcoit | this server is both a bcfg2 client and server, and used random password      
gregcoit | solj: so, i think the answer is no                                           
    solj | can you paste a sanitized copy of your bcfg2.conf?                           
gregcoit | solj: sure                                                                   
gregcoit | solj: http://pastebin.com/d27eb9e1b                                          
    solj | ok, so that's using the ssl certs                                            
    solj | try commenting out the cert/key/ca parts of the [communication] section      
    solj | see if that works                                                            
gregcoit | kk                                                                           
gregcoit | yep, that worked                                                             
    solj | k, i have a feeling that the debian installer is setup to regenerate keys or 
         | something                                                                    
    solj | maybe djbclark knows about that                                              
gregcoit | solj: ok, now a huge issue atm                                               
gregcoit | solj: and thanks!                                                            
    solj | np                                                                           
djbclark | solj: I'm pretty sure that's not there; if it is, I didn't add it. It's      
         | possible we need to tell ucf about files it doesn't currently know about. I  
         | should have time tomoorrow to update the ubuntu and debian testing repos with
         | rc3, and also test for config file overwriting problems.                     
    solj | djbclark: sounds good

I have double-checked and confirmed that /etc/bcfg2.conf is no longer being modified during package updates.
