bird (1.3.11-5) unstable; urgency=low BIRD now uses privilege separation to increase the security, so the daemon doesn't run with root privileges anymore. This change also required to rework the packaging a little bit, so you need to be aware of: * The directory with configuration files had moved from /etc to /etc/bird/ * The daemon now runs as bird:bird, the user and group can be configured in the /etc/bird/envvars configuration file * The run directory where control socket resides has been moved to /run/bird/ -- Ondřej Surý Sat, 05 Oct 2013 22:27:45 +0200
