  subpackages

- Enable mod_lang/nls support for RFC 2640 (and buildreq gettext)

- Rewrite config file to remove most settings that don't change upstream
  defaults, and add brief descriptions for all available loadable modules
- Move Umask and IdentLookups settings from server config to <Global> context

  mod_ifsession's changes are seen properly by other modules

- Drop redundant explicit dependency on pam
- Subpackages don't need to own %{_libexecdir}/proftpd directory
- Drop redundant krb5-devel buildreq
- Make SRPM back-compatible with EPEL-4 (TLS cert dirs, PAM config)
- Don't include README files for non-Linux platforms
- Recode ChangeLog as UTF-8
- Don't ship the prxs tool for building custom DSO's since we don't ship the
  headers either
- Prevent stripping of binaries in a slightly more robust way
- Fix release tag to be ready for future beta/rc versions
- Define RPM macros in global scope
- BuildRequire libcap-devel so that we use the system library rather than the
  bundled one, and eliminate log messages like:
  kernel: warning: `proftpd' uses 32-bit capabilities (legacy support in use)
* Sun Jul 26 2009 Fedora Release Engineering <rel-eng at lists.fedoraproject.org> - 1.3.2-3.1
