brian (2.5.4-4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * gsl-compiler-arg.patch: remove: applied upstream.
  * loongarch64.patch: new: further gsl optimizations.
    Thanks to liuxiang (Closes: #1059428)
  * d/rules: adjust hook for final cleanup.
    This fixes latent lintian warnings in python-brian-doc after
    architecture independent builds.
  * pyproject-packages.patch: declare commit applied upstream.

Available diffs

• diff from 2.5.4-3 to 2.5.4-4 (2.2 KiB)

brian (2.5.4-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * d/control: suggest make and libgsl-dev.
    These packages can be necessary to run certain optimized GSL workloads.
  * demote-cython.patch: new: remove cython from deps. (Closes: #1057983)
  * d/control: python3-brian recommends cython3.
    While it is not part of the dependencies anymore, the package
    contributes greatly to brian performances, and some example workloads
    will not run without it.
  * d/python-brian-doc.lintian-overrides: remove mismatched override.

Available diffs

• diff from 2.5.4-2 to 2.5.4-3 (1.3 KiB)

brian (2.5.4-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * d/clean: also clean docs/ and egg info. (Closes: #1043920)
  * d/rules: make workaround for #739300 more robust.
    The initial shape of the workaround with sed and grep made it
    self-destruct on first pass, causing failure to build binary packages
    twice in a row.  Isolating one character of the regex immunizes the
    recipe against itself.  The check for existence of remaining files is
    also necessary so sed does not attempt to run on zero files.
    (Closes: #1049556)
  * d/rules: reinforce documentation cleanup.
    This also eases the Sphinx 7.1 and docutils 0.20 transition.
    (Closes: #1042608)

  * gsl-compiler-arg.patch: refresh.
  * python3.11.patch: remove: applied upstream.
  * numpy1.24.patch: remove: applied upstream.
  * d/control: add pyproject build dependencies.
    Upstream is shifting to pyproject to declare packaging of brian2.
  * pyproject-packages.patch: new patch.
    This is needed to pull recursively all brian2 submodules, otherwise
    one the top level directory is installed, plus a handful of components
    from brian2.synapses somehow pulled by some other mean.
  * reproducible.patch: declare forwarding not-needed.
    The nature of the change makes it specific to Debian build context.

  [ Andreas Tille ]
  * Standards-Version: 4.6.0
  * Apply multi-arch hints.
    + python3-brian-lib: Add Multi-Arch: same.
    + python-brian-doc: Add Multi-Arch: foreign.
  * Use secure URI in Homepage field.

  [ Étienne Mollier ]
  * d/rules: test only against default python version; fixes build failures
    when several python versions are available.
  * Delete ignore_failing_test.patch: skipping these tests does not seem
    justified anymore; this also fixes running the test suite with pytest.
  * d/rules: use upstream's documented build time test.  (Closes: #983411)
  * d/control: remove build time test dependency python3-nose.
  * Add fix-numpy-test.patch: compatibility with numpy 1.21.  (Closes: #999522)
  * d/control: suggest unit test dependencies in python3-brian.
  * d/control,d/tests: replace superficial autodep8-python autopkgtest by
    autopkgtests based on brian2.test() with good coverage.
  * d/copyright: update debian/* copyright year.
  * d/python-brian-doc.lintian-overrides: fix spelling-in-override-comment.
  * privacy.patch: remove badges from the README.rst; fix some of the privacy
    breaches caught by lintian.
  * d/rules: move some cleanup code before the last stages of package building;
    fix lintian warning package-contains-vcs-control-file.

  * Fix detection of PA-RISC CPU on HP workstations.  The fallback method looks
    to otherwise work as expected, with the behavior of previous experiments.
  * Hopefully fix detection of SuperH CPU; Build-Depends are not available, so
    there are not much ways to check yet.
  * Rewrapped machine uname filters to be more condensed and less surprising.
  * debian/patches/gsl-compiler-arg.patch forwarded upstream.

    machine, in an architecture aware way.

brian (2.4.2-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Team upload.
  * Add gsl-compiler-arg.patch to select sensible default build arguments, as
    several CPU architectures may otherwise not work with upstream's defaults,
    which mainly target amd64 CPUs.  Fixes FTBFS on a couple of architectures,
    including mipsel and riscv64.
