This incorporates all my current non-debian/* diffs. * Recommend exim as a concrete alternative to mail-transport-agent. * Raised priority back to optional.

This adds a very small amount of overhead, but it's worth it because people can just do -Dwhatever without having to reconfigure and recompile trn; this makes support a lot easier. * Added README.debugging. * debian/templates: Added German translation, thanks to Michael Bramer. * debian/copyright: Hedge my bets more, in case anyone thinks I'm offering legal advice. * debian/config: Erm, 'db_fset foo true' probably isn't what I meant, and will fail with debconf >= 0.5.57. Added the necessary 'isdefault'. Moving to the semantics of debconf 0.5 will make this saner. -- Colin Watson Tue, 6 Feb 2001 12:04:14 +0000 trn4 (4.0-test74-7) unstable; urgency=low * The "White Christmas" release. * Applied upstream patch from Ken Herron and Wayne Davison to use getcwd() in preference to getwd() (a potential security hole, though I can't see any way it could have been exploited beyond making trn crash). * A couple of segfault fixes from CVS. * There's already an upstream changelog, but it's what most people would probably call a NEWS file. Now this package calls it that too, and I've manufactured a detailed changelog of trn4 since -test45 from the archive of patches. This is now installed as /usr/share/doc/trn4/changelog.gz. * debian/menu: Added "News" hint. * debian/control: - 'inews | inewsinn' was redundant, as inewsinn provides inews. The other way round causes inewsinn to be the preferred alternative, and actually these days we probably want inn2-inews instead. - Versioned build-dependency on debhelper. * debian/README.Debian: trn does the alternatives thing now. * TODO update (URL in support/filter.README fixed in CVS). -- Colin Watson Fri, 29 Dec 2000 14:23:27 +0000 trn4 (4.0-test74-6) unstable; urgency=low * debian/control: - Standards-Version: 3.2.1: no other changes required. - Slight wording change in long description. - Also build-depend on bison. Oops. * debian/Policy.sh: - Use /etc/mailname instead of /etc/news/whoami (policy 5.6). If /etc/mailname is missing, a question will be asked via debconf; if the two files are different, the user will be warned about the change. - Set mailer and mimecap explicitly, since otherwise we have to build-depend on mail-transport-agent and mime-support respectively. - It turns out that everywhere that uses an editor or a pager checks the relevant environment variables first, so we can drop the sensible- from sensible-editor and sensible-pager. - Turn off d_portable. When Configure says "multiple machines", it really means "multiple machines with different filesystem structures". That isn't necessary in Debian, and, with the public executables moved to /usr/lib/trn4 (see below), they are no longer necessarily in a directory on the PATH. - Set the optional libraries explicitly; the build broke when heimdal-lib was installed. Aargh. Now I see what Jon Rabone meant about strftime() detection. * debian/TODO: Some additions (wording and the suggestion of an Fcc: header). * debian/{config,postinst,templates}: The debconf logic was broken in a number of subtle ways. Fixed it, and folded the note on NNTP configuration into the question prompting for a news server. * Move towards coexistence with other trn packages: - The public executables are now in /usr/lib/trn4, with alternatives-managed symlinks from /usr/bin. trn itself is also installed as /usr/bin/trn4, and will use the real paths internally. - The man pages are also installed as /usr/share/man/man1/trn4-*, again with alternatives. - Added README.Debian, with a note about the effects of this change. - Only conflict with and replace older versions of trn. * Installed some group-scanning configuration files (/etc/trn4/{trn4top,hier_groups}). * debian/menu: Added a menu entry. * debian/rules: Removed check for nostrip in $DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS, since as of debhelper version 2.1.6 dh_strip understands it. * debian/copyright: Added a note about the FAQ. * debian/docs: - Erk! Why was I not including the README file? I am now. - I also think it's useful to include the INSTALL file, as it has advice on site-specific installation and configuration as well as compilation. * ... and in all this I never even touched the upstream source.
