derivations (0.57.20210107-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Observed that, as of upstream version 0.57.20190831, the book's
    source has been updated to build using modern, standard tools
    like PDFLaTeX and Hyperref; and, consequently, that upstream
    has retired and deleted btool/, removing the file PDF.cc and thus
    obviating (as of the present upload to sid) Lucas Nussbaum's
    Sept. 2020 bug report (closes: #971095).  Thanked Lucas for the
    timely, helpful report.
  * Reconfigured and rebuilt for upload to Debian sid.
  * Conformed to Standards-Version 4.5.1.
  * Specified the binary to be Multi-Arch: all.
  * Temporarily worked around new, perhaps buggy behavior by TeX Live.
    (In the new TeX Live, Pst-pdf seems to interact badly with
    Hyperref.  The present workaround works for now but provokes Ps2pdf
    to complain of deprecated usage; so before the Derivations package
    can implement a permanent solution, the future manner in
    which TeX Live addresses the apparent bug shall have to
    be observed.)
  * In tex/Makefile, added a missing, apparently optional = sign to an
    invocation of latex(1) and fixed the definition of the $(ch)
    variable.  (These changes will be sent upstream.)
  * Updated tex/README.  (This change too will be sent upstream.)

  * Reconfigured and rebuilt for upload to Debian sid.
  * Conformed to Standards-Version 4.3.0.
  * Conformed btool/ to sid's Poppler, version 0.69 (closes: #884476).
    Required at least this version of Poppler to build.

derivations (0.53.20120414-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Thanked Pino Toscano and Michael Gilbert for their helpful NMUs.
  * Filled the gap left by Libpoppler's new unwillingness to find a PDF file's
    last XRef table (closes: #668907). Recognized Salvatore Bonaccorso for
    drawing attention to this bug.

derivations (0.52.20100310-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * (Yan Morin) Fixed the broken debian/watch (closes: #550795).
    Thanked Mr. Morin for showing the maintainer how to do it.
  * Updated to the new upstream version.  Refer to doc/changelog in the
    source or to /usr/share/doc/derivations/changelog.gz in the binary
    for details.
  * Built for upload to Debian sid.
  * Updated to Debian sid's current Standards-Version: 3.8.4.
    Observed however (for the maintainer's own later reference) that
    stable Debian lenny had as of this date advanced only as far
    as Standards-Version: 3.8.0.
  * In debian/control:
    + (Jonas Smedegaard) Replaced 'gs-gpl' with 'ghostscript' as a
      build-dependency (closes: #539655).  Thanked Mr. Smedegaard
      for explaining clearly and concisely the need to do so.
    + (Michael Bienia) Allowed 'texlive-binaries' as an
      alternative build-dependency to the evidently
      deprecated 'texlive-base-bin' (closes: #566340),
      though retained for the time being the old dependency
      as an option for ease of backporting.  Thanked Mr. Bienia
      for the timely analysis thereto.
    + Per Policy 7.7, as notified by Lintian, moved the 'debhelper'
      dependency from Build-Depends-Indep to Build-Depends.
    + As Debhelper evidently demands, added "Depends: ${misc:Depends}"
      to the binary's control stanza.
    + Reviewed and updated the version-requirements of several
      other dependencies.

derivations (0.51.20080419-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Rebuilt for upload to Debian sid.
  * Updated for this upload to Standards-Version: 3.7.3.  (Upstream will
    remain at etch's 3.7.2 for the time being.)

derivations (0.5.20071110-3) unstable; urgency=high

  * (Lucas Nussbaum) Observed that recent improvements in libpoppler
    have caused this package to fail to build.  Fixed the failure as
    follows (closes: #453182).
    - Per Lucas' suggestion, canceled the package's former
      build-dependency on libpoppler runtime, build-depending henceforth
      only on libpoppler-dev, since the latter automatically brings
      along the correct version of the former in any case.
    - Required libpoppler 0.6 or better.
    - Reverted btool/PDF/update_catalog.cc to the upstream original,
      which works correctly with the new libpoppler.

derivations (0.5.20071110-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Rebuilt for upload to Debian sid.
  * In debian/control, build-depended on libpoppler1 rather than on the
    now unavailable libpoppler0c2.
  * Patched btool/PDF/update_catalog.cc, updating the Libpoppler call
    src->getKey(i) to src->getKey(i)->getCString().
  * Canceled -Werror in btool/Makefile{,-subdir}.  (Sid's new C++
    compiler complains about Libpoppler's omission to declare certain
    function arguments const.  The maintainer remains unsure whether the
    compiler's complaint exposes an actual bug in Libpoppler, though.
    The maintainer might work more closely around the problem later if
    time arises and Libpoppler's maintainer does not address it from his
    end first; but for now we accept the apparently harmless compiler
    warning and move along.)

derivations (0.4.20060920-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added a dummy debian/watch file.

derivations (0.3.20060607-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Updated to the new upstream version.  Refer to doc/changelog
    for details.
  * Added to helper/RelSteps, step 3, an instruction
    to run helper/letexec.
