Description: 
 pppstatus  - console-based PPP status monitor
Closes: 151885 170062
Changes: 
 pppstatus (0.4.2-4) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Edited main() and load_options() so that pppstatus will follow
     the Unix convention of reading a config file from /etc/pppstatus
     first and from ~/.pppstatus second.  ~/.pppstatus is not read if
     the user is root.  The program no longer exits if the config
     files cannot be read.
   * Closes: #151885 pppstatus does not start automaticly after sysvinit update
   * dirc() is now only called when the user is not root and does not
     exit on failure.
   * Added the constants GLOBALLOGDIR and GLOBALCOSTDIR (both set to
     /var/log), and the global variables logdir and costdir.  Edited
     main() and various functions to use them.  If the user is root
     logs now go in GLOBALLOGDIR and costs go in GLOBALCOSTDIR.
     Otherwise they go in ~/.pppstatus as usual.  'costs' file for root
     is in /etc/pppstatus.  'costs' file for ordinary users goes in
     ~/.pppstatus.
   * Added a '-d <console>' option to run pppstatus as a daemon displaying
     on the specified console.  Added code to support that, including
     pidfile code and signal handlers.  Wrote an init.d script to start
     pppstatus as a daemon in the absence of the file
     /etc/pppstatus/no_pppstatus_on_boot.  This eliminates the need for
     runonboot.
   * Re-wrote man page to reflect the above changes.
   * I can't reproduce this on 0.4.2-4 with libc6 2.3.1-5 and
     libncurses5 5.3.20021109-1.  I think it was a curses problem.
   * Closes: #170062 pppstatus not working after some upgrades
