* Updated translations: Friulian
2.48.0
======
* New stable release. (No changes since 2.47.90)
2.47.90
=======
* gnutls: The non-PKCS#11 TLS plugin now uses gnutls's certificate
validation code directly, rather than attempting to build a
certificate chain itself first. [#753260 and others, Dan Winship]
* gnutls: Fixed a leak when closing a connection during an implicit

[#754129, Michael Catanzaro]
* New/updated translations:
Japanese, Occitan, Portuguese
2.45.1
======
* tls/gnutls: Implement g_tls_client_connection_copy_session_state(),
to allow implementing FTP-over-TLS in gvfs. (#745255, Ross
Lagerwall)
2.44.0
======
* New stable release. (No changes since 2.43.92)
2.43.92
=======
* Fix TLS session caching when using session tickets (#745099, Ross
Lagerwall)
* Updated translations:
Bosnian
2.43.91
=======
* tls/gnutls: Removed a workaround for connecting to servers with
weak DH parameters, which was apparently only needed because
gnutls was prioritizing DHE over RSA. (Michael Catanzaro)
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1177964#c8)
* tls/gnutls: We now require gnutls 3.x again. (In fact, 2.42.1
and 2.43.1 accidentally used a 3.x-only function, so we already
required it, we were just failing to declare that fact.)
* tls/tests: Skip certain tests when running against old gnutls or
GLib releases. (glib-networking 2.43.91 itself does not require
GLib 2.43, but one of the test cases does.)
* Updated translations:
Friulian
2.43.1
======
* The GTlsClientConnection "use-ssl3" property now falls back to TLS
1.0 if SSL 3.0 has been disabled, rather than just failing. Also,
we now use the gnutls %LATEST_RECORD_VERSION option by default (to
allow connecting to certain servers that were incorrectly patched
for the POODLE attack), but also make sure to remove that option
in the fallback ("use-ssl3") mode (to allow connecting to other
servers that are differently broken). (#738633, #740087, Dan
Winship)
* tls/gnutls: Miscellaneous warning, debugging, and leak fixes
(#736757, #736809, #737106, Philip Withnall)
* New/updated translations:
Kazakh
2.42.0
======
* New stable release. (No changes since 2.41.92)
2.41.92
=======
* tls/gnutls: Incorrectly-ordered certificate chains are now
accepted (#683266, Michael Catanzaro)
* tls/gnutls: Closing an already-closed GTlsConnection now correctly
returns TRUE rather than G_IO_ERROR_CLOSED (#735754, Olivier
Crête)
2.41.4
======
* tls/gnutls: certificates with IP address subject altnames are now
supported (#726596, Aleix Conchillo Flaqué)
* tls/tests: added a script to re-generate the certificates, and
regenerated them (since the key for the existing CA certificate
had been lost, so it wasn't possible to add new test certificates,
eg, for IP SAN). (#733365, Aleix Conchillo Flaqué)
* Updated translations:
Greek
2.41.3
======
* tls/gnutls: g_tls_backend_get_default_database() should never
return %NULL; if glib-networking was built without a
ca-certificates file, then the default GTlsDatabase should just be
empty. (#727282, Olivier Crête)
* tls/gnutls: If a server's certificate includes an issuer chain, we
now send the entire chain to the client. (#724708, Aleix Conchillo
Flaqué)
* Updated translations:
Swedish
2.40.0
======
* New stable release. (No changes since 2.39.90)
2.39.90
=======
* tls/gnutls: Avoid trying to update a destroyed GSource (#723774,
Philip Withnall)
* tls/tests: Fix another flaky test (#722336)
* tests: use the TAP driver
* Updated translations:
Chinese, Czech
2.39.3
======
* tls/tests: Fix one sporadic bug in the connection test (#720081)
and make it properly fail rather than hanging forever when another
sporadic bug happens (which I don't actually know the cause of)
(#719727)
* tls/gnutls: Fix for -Werror=format-nonliteral (#720081, Ryan
Lortie)
2.39.1
======
* tls/gnutls: Use g_tls_interaction_invoke_request_certificate()
when processing a certificate request. (#637257, Stef Walter)
* tls/gnutls: Handle G_IO_ERROR_TIMED_OUT on a GTlsConnection
correctly rather than reporting "The specified session has
been invalidated for some reason". (#710700, Aleix Concillo
Flaque)
* tls/tests: Fix to previous installed-tests fix, which resulted
in some files getting installed even when installed tests weren't
enabled. (#710197)
* tls/tests: add a test for a fix made in glib (#710691, Aleix
Conchillo Flaque).
2.38.1
======
* glibpacrunner: Don't crash if there is an internal libproxy error.
(rhbz #866927)
* tls/tests: Fix installed tests to not accidentally depend on
having the source tree still exist. (#709628)
* Updated translations:
Tajik
2.38.0
======
* New stable release. (No changes since 2.37.5)
2.37.5
======
* gnutls: minimum version is now 2.12.8 (with 3.x preferred...)
* glib-networking now supports the --enable-installed-tests flag, to
install its test programs to run at other times (ie, after
updating glib)
2.37.4
======
* proxy/gnome: further improve GNOME session detection (#701377)
* gnutls: don't crash if $G_TLS_GNUTS_PRIORITY is invalid (#701693)
2.37.2
======
* proxy/gnome: Improve session-type detection to include
gnome-classic and anything else starting with "gnome" (#700607,
Giovanni Campagna)
* proxy/libproxy: make SOCKS work when using the async API (#699359,
Dan)
* proxy/tests: make the libproxy test program use the just-built
plugin rather than the installed one. Oops (#700286, Iain Lane)
* proxy/tests: fix to not error out if neither proxy module is built
(#700628, Dan)
* tls/tests: fix a sporadic crash (Dan)
2.37.1
======
* gnutls: Fixed a bug that could cause hangs and/or bursts of CPU
usage in some cases. (#696881, Olivier Crête)
* gnutls: Fixed CFLAGS when building with gnutls in a different
prefix. (#696519, Emmanuel Pacaud)
* gnutls: Fixed a hang while rehandshaking with gnutls 3.x (#695062,
Dan)
* gnutls: Fixed a handshaking crash in multithreaded use (#697754,
Olivier Crête)

treated as "none" (Dan)
* proxy/gnome: Use this in Unity sessions as well as GNOME ones.
(#698936, Iain Lane)
* New/Updated translations:
Friulian, Indonesian, Turkish
2.36.0
=======
* New/Updated translations:
Assamese, Basque, Belarusian, Catalan (Valencian), Catalan,
Danish, Finnish, Hindi, Korean, Latvian, Persian, Portuguese,
Russian, Slovak, Tadjik, Thai
2.35.9
======
* Fixed one kind of handshake failure to return the correct error
code under gnutls 3.x (allowing libsoup to recognize the error and
do fallback to SSL 3.0). (#694812)
* Updated translations:
Chinese (traditional), French, German, Punjabi, Uyghur,
Vietnamese
2.35.8
======
* proxy/gnome: ported to new GSimpleProxyResolver, and added more
tests
* gnutls: Fixed a small per-connection leak (#693718)
* tls/tests: Fixed several race conditions that caused spurious
failures. (#693720)
* Updated translations:
Malayalam
2.35.6
======
* proxy/gnome: Fixed several bugs:
* Multithreaded usage could result in crashes
* In "automatic" mode, synchronous lookups would obey
ignore-hosts, but asynchronous lookups would not. (Now they
both do.)
* lookup_async() would never notice if the proxy settings
switched from "automatic" to "manual" or "none" (and would
make a synchronous D-Bus call when switching in the other
direction).
* If given an invalid URI, lookup_async() would return a
successful result (and leak the GError that it was supposed
to have returned), and lookup() would return both the error
and the proxy (leaking one or the other, depending on how
the caller behaved).
* Updated translations:
Italian, Malayalam, Norwegian bokmål, Serbian, Uyghur
2.35.4
======
* proxy/gnome: The tests should now work correctly even if
run from a non-GNOME environment. (Robert Ancell)
* Updated translations:
Brazilian Portuguese, Bulgarian, Estonian, Galician, Greek,
Hungarian, Slovenian
2.35.3
======
* build: The TLS tests are now not built if you are building without
gnutls support. (Saleem Abdulrasool)
* gnutls: Several handshaking fixes:
* Fix a hang when doing a synchronous close() immediately
after cancelling an asynchronous handshake() (which would
happen in libsoup if you cancelled a message at the right
time). (#688751, Dan)
* Avoid an assertion when an implicit handshake fails
(#689274, Stef)
* Fixed GTlsServerConnection:authentication-mode to work
again, and added a regression test for this. (#689259, Stef)
* Return the appropriate error
(G_TLS_ERROR_CERTIFICATE_REQUIRED) when a handshake fails
because the server required a certificate but none was
provided, and added a test for this. (#689260, Stef)
* Make g_io_stream_close() finish successfully after a failed
handshake (#689260, Stef)
* Make g_io_stream_close() finish successfully before a
handshake (#689271, Stef)
* gnutls: Updated to be aware of G_IO_ERROR_BROKEN_PIPE in glib
2.35.3, which needs to be converted to G_TLS_ERROR_NOT_TLS in some
cases. (Previously this error showed up as just G_IO_ERROR_FAILED.)
(Dan)
* proxy/gnome: This is now only used in GNOME login sessions (as,
essentially, a more efficient version of the libproxy GNOME
backend); in non-GNOME sessions, gio will now fall back to the
libproxy plugin, allowing environment variables or other libproxy
settings backends to be used.
* New/Updated translations:
Czech, Hebrew, Lithuanian, Polish, Slovak, Spanish
2.35.1
======
* Update for glib 2.35.1; remove g_type_init() calls and port to
GTask.
* Updated translations:
Estonian

======
* Updated translations:
Arabic, Bulgarian, Catalan (Valencian), Catalan, Chinese
(Simplified), Hindi, Japanese, Thai
2.33.14
=======
* Updated translations:
Brazilian Portuguese, British English, Czech, Danish, Finnish,
French, German, Korean, Punjabi
2.33.12
=======
* gnutls: Revert the addition of the certificate-bytes and
private-key-bytes properties to GTlsCertificateGnutls, since they
were reverted in glib. (#682081, Stef)
* Updated translations:
Belarusian, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Latvian, Polish,
Polish, Vietnamese
2.33.10
=======
* gnutls: Improved the certificate verifying code to deal with the
case of a CA being reissued with the same key but a different
signature algorithm. (#681299, Stef)
* gnutls: Fixed an uninitialized variable in
g_tls_connection_gnutls_close(). (#681636)
* Updated translations:
Assamese, Portuguese, Telugu
2.33.8
======
* gnutls: If a GTlsConnection gets an error when handshaking, it
will now continue to return that error message on future I/O
attempts, rather than behaving in an undefined manner.
* gnutls: You can now read from a GTlsConnection's input stream and
write to its output stream at the same time (either in different
threads, or asynchronously in a single thread). (#660252)
* Updated translations:
Chinese (traditional), Galician, Greek, Hebrew, Lithuanian,
Norwegian bokmål, Russian, Serbian, Slovenian, Spanish
2.33.3
======
* Updated autogen.sh (in particular to support automake 1.12)
(#675261)
* gnutls: fix the use-system-certdb property on GTlsConnectionGnutls
(previously, setting it to FALSE was a no-op).
* Updated translations:
Dutch, Greek, Indonesian
2.33.2
======
* gnutls: simplify using new glib pollable stream methods
* proxy/gnome: fix a bug that made it impossible to use SOCKS
without also having a separate http proxy.
2.32.1
======
* gnutls: added /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem to the list of files to check
for to use as the default CA list. (This is what openSUSE uses.)
(#673944, Federico Mena Quintero)
* Updated translations:
Catalan (Valencian), Marathi, Odia, Persian
2.32.0
======
* New/updated translations:

=======
* Updated translations:
British English, Catalan, Finnish, Lithuanian, Portuguese,
Telugu
2.31.20
=======
* gnutls: Fixed a linking problem on some platforms when PKCS#11 is
enabled. (#670956, Kalev Lember)
* Updated translations:
Assamese, Basque, Belarusian, Brazilian Portuguese, Danish,
Estonian, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Korean, Polish,
Russian, Serbian
2.31.16
=======

avoid warnings in partial jhbuild environments
* proxy/gnome: Update to use GInetAddressMask
* Updated translations:
Chinese (simplified), Hebrew, Norwegian bokmål, Slovenian,
Swedish, Ukranian
2.31.2
======
* gnutls
* Added gnutls-pkcs11 backend, which uses gnutls 2.12.8 and
p11-kit (a new optional dependency) to provide access to
PKCS#11 tokens. At the moment, this is only enabled if you
set GIO_USE_TLS=gnutls-pkcs11 in the environment. (Stef,
#656361)
* GTlsCertificateGnutls can now read unencrypted PKCS#8 keys
(which show "BEGIN PRIVATE KEY" in PEM form) in addition to
the previously-supported PKCS#1 keys ("BEGIN RSA PRIVATE
KEY").
* Updated translations:
Galician, German, Lithuanian, Norwegian bokmål, Spanish,
Turkish
2.31.0
======
* gnutls
* Bumped required GNUTLS version to 2.11.0 and updated
code for that (Stef, #656903)
* Fixed a crash when passing a NULL GCancellable to
g_tls_connection_close_async() (Dan, #659786) or a NULL
GError to g_tls_file_database_new().
* Fixed handling of self-signed CA certificates in
GTlsDatabaseGnutls (Dan, #660508)
* Added another G_TLS_ERROR_NOT_TLS (aka "dumb server, try
falling back from TLS to SSLv3") case, when the handshake
completes but then packets after that don't decrypt
correctly. (Dan, #662104)
* Made sure that GTlsConnection:peer-certificate and
:peer-certificate-errors get set even when the peer
certificate is rejected. (Dan)
* proxy/gnome
* Fixed ignore_hosts handling (Dan, #655581)
* Fixed configure check so that "--without-gnome-proxy" works.
(Alexandre Rostovtsev, #662203)
* Fixed tests to only build the gnome proxy test if we're
building the gnome proxy. (Kalev Lember, #662085)
* New translations:
Telugu
2.30.0
======
* Updated translation:
Thai
2.29.92
=======
* New/updated translations:
Belarusian, Tamil, Japanese
* gnutls: Fixed a problem when linking against GNUTLS 3.0, where
connections would sometimes return the error "The TLS connection
was non-properly terminated". (Dan Winship, #659233)
* gnutls: Plugged a few memory leaks (Dan Winship)
2.29.18
=======
* gnutls: fixed two rehandshaking bugs; one in which a client
would erroneously report an error after successfully rehandshaking
(Igor Makarov, #653645), and one where initiating an asynchronous
rehandshake on the server side would send illegal packets and
cause the client to disconnect (Dan Winship).
* gnutls: made GTlsDatabaseGnutls and GTlsFileDatabaseGnutls
properly cancellable (Stef Walter)
* gnutls: fixed the client-side session cache to not share session
IDs between different virtual hosts on the same IP address, which
caused problems with some servers. (Dan Winship, #581342)
* tls: Fixed up the tls test program so it can be run from "make
check" (Stef Walter)
* New translations:
Persian
2.29.15
=======
* gnutls: implement GTlsDatabase (Stef Walter, #636572)
* gnutls: override minimum key length, to allow connecting to HTTP
servers with very small keys (eg, on some embedded devices). (Dan
Winship, #652284).
* gnutls: use %COMPAT mode, which makes GNUTLS behave more like
OpenSSL/NSS/Windows in a few ways, making it work with certain
broken HTTP servers. (Dan Winship, part of #581342)
* gnutls: fixed a crash when passed a NULL GError (Dan Winship)
2.29.9
======
* Optimized GDBus usage in PACRunner (davidz)
* Fixed a race condition in GProxyResolverGnome (davidz)
* Changed configure to --enable-maintainer-mode by default,
to match glib

Turkish
2.28.5
======
* New/updated translations:
Basque, Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese (Traditional), Danish,
Hindi, Kannada, Marathi, Uyghur
2.28.4
======
* Added a new proxy backend, GProxyResolverGnome, that uses
GSettings and the network proxy schemas from
gsettings-desktop-schemas to provide proxy information (and using
a new D-Bus service provided by the libproxy backend to provide
PAC/WPAD support).
If you are building glib-networking in a GNOME 3.0 environment,
you should make sure that gsettings-desktop-schemas.pc is
available when building, so that this backend gets built.
* New translations:
Assamese, Latvian, Oriya, Serbian
2.28.0

but non-functional in 2.27.4
* gnutls: updates for glib TLS API changes
* gnutls: fix some async bugs that caused the main loop to spin
* gnutls: implement a client-side session cache, to speed up
