checksecurity (2.0.16) unstable; urgency=medium

  * plugins/check-setuid: Prevent error from find by putting
    -ignore_readdir_race as first option (Closes: 714152)
  * plugins/check-iptables-logs, man/check-iptables-logs.8: Add new plugin to
    check for iptables logs and provide information of attacked ports,
    blacklisted hosts (using fail2ban), etc.
  * etc/global-checksecurity.conf: Add information for the new plugin, this is
    disabled by default (as systems might not have iptables configured and,
    even if enabled, there might not be a log target)
  * man/{check-diskfree.8,check-passwd.8,check-setuid.8}: Clarify that these
    plugins are written to be run by checksecurity. Some of the plugins might
    not work if missing some environment variables (which are defined by
    checksecurity)
  * man/checksecurity.8: Add a reference to the new plugin check-iptables-logs
  * debian/control: Improve the package description with the recommendations
    made by Justin B Rye (Closes: #688070)
  * debian/control: Add debsecan to the Recommends, this provides notification
    of vulnerabilities in the system and security updates (Closes: #253097)
  * etc/check-setuid.conf: Exclude more filesystems for the setuid checks as
    are system based filesystems
  * debian/po/tr.po: Add Turkish translation provided by Mert Dirik
    (Closes: #759874)
