The directory /etc/libvirt is backed up on uninstallation and is
restored on installation.
Alle Files in /var are commented in the rootfile so they are not
removed on uninstallation.
Because of the fact that the directories are not shipped with the
package they were created at installation time.
The permissions of 3 directories are changed because the qemu user is
nobody and the qemu group is kvm, so the permissions must be nobody:kvm

Includes various security fixes:
* sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack against
the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
requests of length greater than 1024 characters. Independently
reported by Tomas Kuthan (Oracle), Andres Rojas and Javier Nieto.
* sshd(8): Mitigate timing differences in password authentication
that could be used to discern valid from invalid account names
when long passwords were sent and particular password hashing
algorithms are in use on the server. CVE-2016-6210, reported by
EddieEzra.Harari at verint.com
* ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC padding
oracle countermeasures. Reported by Jean Paul Degabriele, Kenny
Paterson, Torben Hansen and Martin Albrecht. Note that CBC ciphers
are disabled by default and only included for legacy compatibility.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC verification for
Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms to verify the
MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the possibility
of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext, though no
such leakage has been observed. Reported by Jean Paul Degabriele,
Kenny Paterson, Torben Hansen and Martin Albrecht.
* sshd(8): (portable only) Ignore PAM environment vars when
UseLogin=yes. If PAM is configured to read user-specified
environment variables and UseLogin=yes in sshd_config, then a
hostile local user may attack /bin/login via LD_PRELOAD or
similar environment variables set via PAM. CVE-2015-8325,
found by Shayan Sadigh.

This patch update qemu to version 2.6
For changelogs see:
http://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/2.5http://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/2.6
Qemu try to built with bluez, but before version 2.6 bluez was not used
by qemu on IPFire, so I think it is better to disable bluez because
nobody needs it before version 2.6 and our bluez is not the latest
version so I think this will cause more problems than benefits.

This is an security update.
Recent were 2 serious security vulnerabilities published.
This patch update spice to a version which is not vulnerable.
Changelog:
Changes in 0.12.8:
==================
* Fixes for CVE-2016-0749 and CVE-2016-2150
Changes in 0.12.7:
==================
* spice-server will now send TCP keepalive probes on the TCP connections
it
uses. This can prevent unwanted idle disconnections if proxies are
used
between the client and the host.
* Fix important memory usage when the webdav channel is used
* Do not disconnect when the client requests an unsupported compression
type
* Fix a few race conditions
* Fix display glitch when using XSpice
* Improve help string for 'replay -s'
* Fix crashes in corner cases (buggy spice-html5 + win10, vnc + SPICE
port
configured, USB webcam redirection over a slow link)
* Fix various compilation warning when building on 32 bit machines
* Some fixes for big-endian machines, more work is likely to be needed
* Do not build static libraries by default, this can be reenabled with
--enable-static
* Fix small leak in MJPEG code

The libvirt daemon was not started after installation because the
initscritp is named 'libvirtd' not like the package 'libvirt'.
The same problem appear in the uninstall.sh. The service was not

As a normal user, it is not possible to use qemu with KVM. This is bad
because it is better when it is possible to start the machine with a
less privileged user. To achieve this a group KVM is created and the
access to /dev/kvm is allowed for this group. So every user in this
group can use qemu with KVM.
This change is also useful for libvirt because the VMs can be started
with user nobody and group kvm.

It is possible to communicate per ssh via a socket with libvirt. It is
not a good idea to do this as root, so the remote user is now
libvirt-remote. Only this user or users in the group libvirt-remote can
communicate with the socket.
The user libvirt-remote is created without a password. The users have to
set a password for this user after installation.

Excerpt from annoncement:
"This version fixes a security vulnerability (CVE-2016-4971) present in
all old versions of wget. The vulnerability was discovered by Dawid
Golunski which were reported to us by Beyond Security's SecuriTeam.
On a server redirect from HTTP to a FTP resource, wget would trust the
HTTP server and uses the name in the redirected URL as the destination
filename.
This behaviour was changed and now it works similarly as a redirect from
HTTP to another HTTP resource so the original name is used as
the destination file. To keep the previous behaviour the user must
provide --trust-server-names."

This patch updates the ncurses to 6.0. The old 5.9 are renamed to ncurses-compat.
The compat makes the old libs maintainable and the compat rootfile is cleaned up.
The 6.0 is build after 5.9 and all IPFire componentes will build with 6.0
In version 6 only the wide-character libraries are build. The are usable
in both multibyte and traditional 8-bit locales while normal libraries work
properly only in 8-bit locales. The toolchain is only bild with 6.0.
