ircd-hybrid (1:8.2.38+dfsg.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
ircd-hybrid 8.2.38 contains several configuration changes compared to 8.2.31
and below. You are recommended to review your configuration against the
defaults supplied with this package when upgrading, or automatically
choose the option during upgrade to update your configuration to be
compatible. The scripts in /usr/share/ircd-hybrid/scripts can be used to
update your configuration later, if needed.
This release cannot be used to link with any ircd-hybrid server < 8.2.23.
If you have such servers on your network (including those using Debian
packages from Debian 8, aka stretch) or below, you should upgrade those
to at least 8.2.23 or Debian 9, aka buster) before upgrading this package.
This release cannot be used to link with any Anope release < 2.0.8.
For typical configurations where anope is running on the same host,
this requirement is enforced through Debian package relationships. If you
have a configuration where ircd-hyrid is linked to Anope running on a
different system, ensure that this installation is sufficiently up-to-date
before upgrading.

ircd-hybrid (1:8.2.16+dfsg.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
This package now builds SSL/TLS support in by default, thanks to the
new upstream support for GnuTLS.
Since the release of Anope 2, Anope has been the recommended services
for ircd-hybrid. This is now (as of May 2015) in Debian, meaning there
is out of the box services support for ircd-hybrid in Debian again.

ircd-hybrid (1:8.0.7.dfsg.1-1) experimental; urgency=low
ircd-hybrid 8.x includes a change to the way secure server links are
implemented, which is not backwards-compatible with ircd-hybrid 7.x.
If you have any secure server links (cryptlinks) configured, you should
plan to either upgrade all servers in lock-step, or temporarily configure
non-cryptlink server links, to ensure the continuity of your IRC links,
before upgrading to ircd-hybrid 8.x.

serverinfo{} block
