  * Set source format to 3.0 (quilt)
  * Separate out patches from previous versions into debian/patches
  * Replace the patch for Bug #382121 with a more complete upstream fix
    from ioquake3 bug 3756, which just uses the OS's memcpy()
  * Apply patch from ioquake3 bug 4331 to fix invalid use of strcpy
    (Closes: #583939)
  * Fix tremulous --help and tremulous-server --help (Closes: #566530)
  * Remove bashisms from those script wrappers (Closes: #530209, #530210)

    falling back to the architecture-neutral QVM interpreter
  * Improve the tremulous-server init script (Closes: #469576):
    - stop the process correctly
    - disable the tremulous-server init script by default - enable it in
      /etc/default/tremulous-server if you want a system-wide instance
    - run tremded under a dedicated user ID, not as nobody (which shouldn't be
      used like this)
    - give that dedicated user ID a home directory, since Tremulous needs one

  * Advance to Debhelper 7 compatibility

  * Fix hyphen/minus confusion in man pages
  * Fail prerm on errors

tremulous-server: Tremulous server

 The package provides the dedicated server for Tremulous.
 .
 Tremulous is a free, open source game that blends a team based First Person
 Shooter (FPS) game with elements of a Real Time Strategy (RTS) game. Players
 can choose from 2 unique races, aliens and humans. Players on both teams are
 able to build working structures in-game like a Real Time Strategy game.
 These structures provide many functions, the most important being spawning.
 The designated builders must ensure there are spawn structures or other players
 will not be able to rejoin the game after death. Other structures provide
 automated base defense (to some degree), healing functions and much more...
 .
 Player advancement is different depending on which team you are on. As a
 human, players are rewarded with credits for each alien kill. These credits
 may be used to purchase new weapons and upgrades from the "Armoury". The alien
 team advances quite differently. Upon killing a human foe, the alien is able
 to evolve into a new class. The more kills gained the more powerful the classes
 available.
 .
 The overall objective behind Tremulous is to eliminate the opposing team. This
 is achieved by not only killing the opposing players but also removing their
 ability to respawn by destroying their spawn structures.
