2007-04-16	* Remove a warning.	Eelco Dolstra

2007-03-30	* Work around a bug in Apple's GCC preprocessor.	Eelco Dolstra

2007-02-06	* Fix 64-bit compiler warnings.	Eelco Dolstra

2007-01-24	* Nasty: Glibc clears the TMPDIR environment variable in setuid	Eelco Dolstra
	programs, so if a builder uses TMPDIR, then it will fail when executed through nix-setuid-helper. In fact Glibc clears a whole bunch of variables (see sysdeps/generic/unsecvars.h in the Glibc sources), but only TMPDIR should matter in practice. As a workaround, we reinitialise TMPDIR from NIX_BUILD_TOP.
2006-12-07	* Rename all those main.cc files.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-12-07	* Check for lchown.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-12-07	* Move setuidCleanup() to libutil.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-12-07	* If not running as root, let the setuid helper kill the build user's	Eelco Dolstra
	processes before and after the build.
2006-12-07	* Change the ownership of store paths to the Nix account before	Eelco Dolstra
	deleting them using the setuid helper.
2006-12-07	* If Nix is not running as root, call the setuid helper to start the	Eelco Dolstra
	builder under the desired build user.
2006-12-06	* Change the ownership of the current directory to the build user.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-12-06	* Verify that the desired target user is in the build users group (as	Eelco Dolstra
	specified in the setuid config file).
2006-12-06	* Check that the caller is allowed to call the setuid helper. The	Eelco Dolstra
	allowed uid is specified in a configuration file in /etc/nix-setuid.conf.
2006-12-06	* Get rid of `build-users'. We'll just take all the members of	Eelco Dolstra
	`build-users-group'. This makes configuration easier: you can just add users in /etc/group.
2006-12-06	* nix-setuid-helper: allow running programs under a different uid.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-12-06	* Start of the setuid helper (the program that performs the operations	Eelco Dolstra
	that have to be done as root: running builders under different uids, changing ownership of build results, and deleting paths in the store with the wrong ownership).
