cdebconf (0.157ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

      according to FRONTEND_BACKGROUND.

    - Install a default /etc/newt/palette symlink to
      /etc/newt/palette.ubuntu.

cdebconf (0.157) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Regis Boudin ]
  * Switch to dpkg format 3.0 native.
  * Add build-arch and build-indep targets to debian/rules.
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.2.
  * Stop passing -ldl when linking libdebconfclient, unneeded.
  * Try to create the database files if they don't exist. Closes: #451130.
  * Only link libdebconf.so to libtextwrap, not the applications. However, if
    enabled, explicitly link the newt module to it, instead of resolving the
    symbols indirectly through libdebconf.so.
  * Make debconf --priority actually set the priority.
  * Give live libdebconfclient0 a different short description, making lintian
    happier.
  * Fix dpkg-reconfigure to pass parameters again when calling scripts.
  * Implement dpkg-preconfigure (Closes: #442293).
  * Improve detection of the package name, automatically load the .templates
    file, and run the .config file is they exist. Closes: #537536.
  * Fix memory leak in text frontend.
  * Rework setting of values while running with a frontend, to use debconf-
    relevant settings (e.g. debconf/priority or debconf/frontend).
  * Fix naming collision between handlers in the frontends shared objects.
  * Rework frontend loading to enable change while running, and be more robust.

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Emit slightly more compact error messages for unknown localised fields.

cdebconf (0.156) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Regis Boudin ]
  * Add cdebconf versions of debconf-escape, debconf-get-selections,
    debconf-set-selections, and debconf-show. (Initial debconf-escape code by
    Colin Watson.)
  * Fix FTBFS with the future GCC 4.6.1 (Closes: #625317).
  * Implement handling of multiple flags in the rfc822db backend. Fix some
    issue in it, thanks to Samuel Thibault (Closes: #628084).
  * dpkg-reconfigure :
    + Update g_frontend after each run of confmodule, in case it was changed.
      Closes: #442287.
    + Load the questions and templates dbs before the frontend to avoid being
      overridden by the value of debconf/frontend. See #442287 for more info.
    + Fix call to getline() to stop when reaching the end of the file.
    + Let getline() realloc the buffer instead of freeing it every time.
    + Set _cmdline::frontend instead of DEBIAN_FRONTEND.
    + Compare the variable script instead of the constant string "script" with
      "config".
  * Remove duplicate Priority fields in control file.

  [ Samuel Thibault ]
  * Add -lpthread to fix loading on hurd the gtk backend which needs it.

cdebconf (0.155) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Appease compiler warnings in align_text_renderer_render.  (In practice
    x_offset and y_offset are never uninitialised here, but knowing that
    requires knowing that cell_area can never be NULL.)
  * Make some more variables and functions static (in programs - no library
    ABI changes).
  * Use 'dpkg-query --control-path' in dpkg-reconfigure rather than
    hardcoding /var/lib/dpkg/info (closes: #616060).
  * Use getline rather than a fixed-length buffer in dpkg-reconfigure
    getfield.
