Changelog

guile-1.8 (1.8.8+1-10ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium

  * Resynchronise with Debian.  Remaining changes:
    - Build with thread support. Some guile-using programs like autogen need
      it.
    - Add debian/guile-1.8-libs.shlibs: Thread support breaks ABI, bump the
      soname.

guile-1.8 (1.8.8+1-10) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Don't declare conflicting flex functions.  Add
    0012-remove-spurious-declarations-in-c-tokenize.lex.patch to fix a
    FTBFS caused by conflicting flex function declarations (yyget_len(),
    etc.).  Thanks to Daniel Schepler <email address hidden> for the
    report.  (Closes: 745969)

guile-1.8 (1.8.8+1-9) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Explicitly link against -lpthread on hurd-i386.  This fixes some
    crashes that were caused when Guile dlopened a library that was linked
    against libpthread, which needs to initialize itself much earlier in
    the startup process.  Thanks to Samuel Thibault <email address hidden>
    for the report and the fix. (Closes: #646544)

  [ Hideki Yamane ]
  * Fix problems in guile-tut.texi that cause makeinfo to
    fail (partially fixes #711029).
    0008-Fix-problems-in-guile-tut.texi-that-cause-makeinfo-t.patch

  [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
  * Fix r5rs.texi makeinfo failure by applying changes from guile-2.0
    (partially fixes #711029).
    0009-Fix-r5rs.texi-makeinfo-failure-by-applying-changes-f.patch

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Fix test-suite failure caused by formfeed differences in texinfo 5.
    The version of makeinfo in texinfo 5.2 (at least) emits
    slightly-differently-formatted output that breaks
    ice-9/documentation.scm, and hence the test suite.  Later versions of
    Guile implement their own texinfo parsing and thus no longer rely on
    makeinfo for this, but this workaround is enough to fix the test suite
    for now. (Closes: #711029)
    0010-Fix-test-suite-failure-caused-by-formfeed-difference.patch

  * Fix incompatibility with automake 1.13; specify serial-tests.  As of
    automake 1.13, the default test harness changed to a newer one that's
    not compatible with Guile 1.8's current arrangement.  Specify
    serial-tests to select the old harness.
