- Retain CAP_AUDIT_WRITE, needed for pam_loginuid (#506735, fixed upstream)
- Remove ScoreboardFile directive from configuration file - default value
  works better with SELinux (#498375)
- Ship mod_quotatab_sql.so in the main package rather than the SQL backend
  subpackages

  - mod_quotatab_radius
  - mod_radius
  - mod_ratio
  - mod_rewrite
  - mod_site_misc

  - mod_wrap2_file
  - mod_wrap2_sql
- Enable mod_lang/nls support for RFC 2640 (and buildreq gettext)
- Add /etc/sysconfig/proftpd to set PROFTPD_OPTIONS and update initscript to
  use this value so we can use a define to enable (e.g.) anonymous FTP support
  rather than having a huge commented-out section in the config file
- 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
  so that they apply to all servers, including virtual hosts (#509251)
- Ensure mod_ifsession is always the last one specified, which makes sure that
  mod_ifsession's changes are seen properly by other modules
- Drop pam version requirement - all targets have sufficiently recent version
- 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

* Thu Apr  9 2009 Matthias Saou <http://freshrpms.net/> 1.3.2-2
- Fix tcp_wrappers-devel BR conditional.
