Changes for version 0.10 - 2012-09-06

  • INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES
    • Update to Rinci 1.1.28 (transaction protocol v=2).
    • Now uses Unix::Passwd::File as the backend instead of Passwd::Unix::Alt. This is because UPF has working locking and gives detailed per-call error messages instead of using global variable.
    • Parameter name change: in setup_unix_user(), 'name' becomes 'user'; in setup_unix_group(), 'name' becomes 'group'. This is to align better with Unix::Passwd::File. Some parameters also got changed.
    • Parameter default change: default 'min_new_uid' and 'min_new_gid' is now 1000 instead of 0. You can of course still set it to 0.
