Changelog
apt-listbugs (0.1.13) unstable; urgency=medium
* improved README.Debian formatting
* documented how to temporarily disable the invocation of apt-listbugs
in README.Debian
* added some further considerations to the section about the "affects"
field in README.Debian
* fixed a bug in the handling of the user's answer to the question on
how to proceed (continue or stop the installation, or pin packages,
and so forth...): a "y" answer is now ignored, when some packages
have just been pinned
* improved the man page:
- clarified what happens with the force options when in apt mode
- enhanced the explanation of the exit status
- improved style and clarity of the explanation for IgnoreRegexp
- enhanced the explanation of APT_HOOK_INFO_FD
- clarified the explanation of the severity filter option
* updated gitweb URL in man page and in debian/copyright file
* fixed another bug in the handling of the user's answer to the question on
how to proceed: an answer containing the letter "h" or "p" is no longer
misinterpreted as an "h" or "p" answer
* refreshed the .pot file for internationalization
- switched to rxgettext for the .pot file generation
* enhanced reading of ignore_bugs files: each line is considered a comment,
if its first nonwhitespace character is '#'; otherwise, the first word
is considered a package name or bug number to be ignored.
* downgraded the dependencies on ruby-xmlparser and ruby-httpclient to
recommendations
* fixed "auxiliary script send-hook-info.rb fails to work with Ruby 2.0":
added an explicit file descriptor redirection to the exec call in order
to adapt to Ruby 2.0 stricter behavior; thanks a lot to Christian
Hofstaedtler for explaining what was wrong and for pointing me to the
appropriate documentation! (Closes: #740564)
* fixed "New feature to automatically pin packages (implementation patch
supplied)": implemented the --force-pin option, thanks to Famelis George
for the initial patch, updated by Serafeim Zanikolas (thanks!) and
further modified by me (Closes: #441689)
* fixed "make ParseStep configurable": created an APT configuration
option (Closes: #562499)
* fixed "should try and be more informative on "invalid date" SOAP
parsing error" (Closes: #493632) and "Proposed Workaround for
Apt-listbugs SOAP Failures" (Closes: #524768): on network errors,
apt-listbugs now proposes to the user to retry one bug report at a
time and begins showing the bug number currently being parsed.
