Changelog
gpsd (2.34.dfsg-2) unstable; urgency=low
* debian/gpsd.templates:
- Updating the manpage category of gpsd, thanks to Thijs Kinkhorst for the
hint.
* debian/patches:
- Adding INSTALL-description-fix.dpatch, clarifying which device gpsd uses
by default. Thanks to Dan Jacobson for reporting. (Closes: #329267)
- Adding no-gps-manpage.dpatch to reflect that gps.1 is renamed to xgps.1
due to a name clash with the gps package.
- Adding gpsfake-logfile-howto.dpatch which adds a comment about creating
a logfile which is suitable for the use with gpsfake. Thanks to
Dan Jacobson again. (Closes: #329266)
* debian/rules:
- We need to use dh_installman to install xgps.1 now, more easy than
patching Makefile.*
gpsd (2.34.dfsg-1) unstable; urgency=low
* Hijacking the package as announced on <email address hidden>
in <email address hidden> due to the old maintainer being MIA.
* New upstream version
* Removing Tachometer.c due to an unclear licensing, this introduces
.dfsg to the version number and results in not being able to build
xgpsspeed.
* Building new packages:
- python-gps containing the python modules, this also fixes a bug
complaining about missing python-support (Closes: #413925)
- Splitting libgps and the according devel files in separate packages
(Closes: #295375)
* Installing gpsd in /usr/sbin again. gpsd is a system daemon and only
rarely used as user command.
* Auto discovery of USB GPS devices is disabled by default now, as the USB
devices use nothing but a standard usb to serial converter. This resulted
in trouble if you wanted to use a normal serial converter without attached
GPS device. A rules file is provided as example now.
(Closes: #442467, #404780)

- Replacing the question for gpsd/device by a title, fixing a lintian
warning

* debian/rules:
- Rewriting file completely. This also introduces new files to the
packaging (debian/{gpsd,gpsd-clients}.install, debian/gpsd.examples)
and removes several unused/obsolete files:
(debian/{remove_rpath.sh,gpsd-clients.docs}, debian/*.dirs,
debian/gpsd.lintian-overrides).
* debian/watch, debian/dfsg-clean.sh:
- Adding files to watch for upstream versions and handle the removal of
non-free material automatically.
