debian-faq (10.1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Team upload.
  * Disable BYHAND processing to allow migration to testing.
    The package needs a binary upload for BYHAND processing,
    but this disables the migration to testing, because
    a source-only upload is required. Therefore, this is
    an upload with only the BYHAND rules removed, no other
    changes have been made. The content is therefore
    identical to the documents available from the archive
    mirrors.

debian-faq (4.0) unstable; urgency=low

  * The Debian FAQ is now maintained using SVN (no longer using CVS.)
  [ Changes by Joost van Baal ]
  * The Debian FAQ's debian/ packaging stuff is now maintained using a
    revision control system: SVN on Alioth.
    - debian/control:  Add Vcs-* headers.
  * This package no longer is called doc-debian, but debian-faq; it contains
    the Debian GNU/Linux FAQ only.  See doc-debian's debian/changelog for
    the history of the Debian GNU/Linux FAQ. (Closes: #473998)
    - debian/rules: remove stuff referring to constitution or social-contract.
    - debian/{prerm,postinst}: remove stuff referring to reporting-bugs,
      manifesto, mailing-lists or social-contract.
    - debian/control: package is now called debian-faq, not doc-debian.  Rewrote
      package description.  Add Conflicts: doc-debian <= 3.1.5.
    - debian/copyright: remove license conditions of non-FAQ documents.
  * debian/control: add Homepage header.
  * debian/control: add myself to Uploaders, after ack from jfs.
  * debian/rules: faq no longer is in FAQ/, but in .: adjust build rules.
  * debian/doc-base: imported from doc-debian-3.1.5/doc-base/debian-faq.
    updated list of authors.
  * debian/control: Bump Standards-Version from 3.6.2.0 to 3.7.3 (no changes
    needed.)
  * Create new binary Debian packages debian-faq-de, debian-faq-fr,
    debian-faq-it, debian-faq-zh-cn for translations which are somewhat up to
    date and not yet available as Debian packages.  Use debhelper's dh_install
    to deal with these multiple packages: we now build-depend upon debhelper.
    When at it, use dh_installdeb, dh_gencontrol, dh_md5sums and dh_builddeb
    too.
    - debian/{rules,control}: install de, fr, it and zh_CN translations too.
    - debian/compat: enforce debhelper compatibility level 5.
    - debian/rules: build needed languages (de, fr, it and zh_CN) only.
    - debian/debian-faq-{de,fr,it,zh-cn}.{dirs,install}: add debhelper files
      for building extra binary packages.
    - debian/rules: use debhelper's dh_installchangelog, dh_installdocs and
      dh_compress to handle debian/{copyright,changelog} and doc-base stuff.
      add needed dh_clean calls.
    - debian/rules: replace handcrafted chmod/chown call with dh_fixperms.
    - debian/debian-faq*.doc-base, debian/debian-faq*.{prerm,postrm}: add
      doc-base registrations for all packages, let debhelper deal with them.
  * Update the content of the FAQ files to their latest SVN
    versions, from svn.debian.org ddp/manuals/trunk/debian-faq:

          software/

          an implementation detail: move it somewhat more under the carpet

          Skype); mention ndiswrapper; mention Google Earth (or is that not
          suitable for this faq?)

          are there CD images available somewhere?" duplicates "Where/how can

        * getting.sgml: we do DVDs too, not just CDs
        * getting.sgml: Given the current size of Debian, installing from

          install it from a pile of floppy disks?"
        * getting.sgml: http://www.debian.org/CD is more up to date on
          getting CD images than this faq: add referral
        * pkg_basics.sgml: Mention wrapper tools for building .deb from
          source package. Thanks Tim Richardson for his suggestion in

          details to end of chapter

        * software.sgml: non-us is obsolete since sarge: remove section
        * getting.sgml: dselect's build-in access methods are obsolete. Do
          not talk about low level cd image details like Rock Ridge
          extensions: that's not suitable for newbies.
        * pkgtools.sgml: fix bug in description of "apt-get dist-upgrade".
          explain difference with "apt-get upgrade"
     - changes by joostvb, 2007-09-21

        * basic_defs.sgml: Michael K. Johnson's INFO-SHEET and META-FAQ have
          been unmaintained for a very long time. Refer to Linux Online instead.
        * basic_defs.sgml: We don't release every several months, but at
          about every 2 years (checked potato - woody - sarge - etch ( - lenny)
          release dates).  FTP archives are update twice, not once a day.
        * basic_defs.sgml: when asked what debian is, first tell about the
          nice things. explain the boring stuff like what a distribution is
          later: swapped 2 sections
        * support.sgml: remove notes about sections of manpages: too much
          techical detail for intented audience. give example "man ls"
          instead and refer to man(1)
        * support.sgml: mention yelp too, as an alternative for dwww,
          doc-central e.a.
