xchat 2.8.8-7.1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

xchat (2.8.8-7.1ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian, remaining changes:
    - Optimise default settings for efficient chatting
      + Make tab completion by default use last-used order, not alphabetical.
        This way for example if one is chatting with cjwatson, typing
        "cj<tab>" will complete to cjwatson and not cjohnston.
        Manual migration: ~/.xchat/xchat.conf: completion_sort = 1
      + Do not focus channel upon entering, as that clears highlights when using a znc proxy.
        To be honest, there should be a distinction between manually joining
        new channels & auto-joining. (LP: #189222)
        Manual migration: ~/.xchat/xchat.conf: tab_new_to_front = 0
      + Do not clear buffer with Ctrl-L shortcut. (LP: #304477)
        That shortcut is dominated by web-browsers changing URLs and causes
        context loss if the focus was accidently left on xchat.
    - Fix ftbfs, should link against gmodule.
    - Add xchat-indicator to recommends. (LP: #1048335)
    - Include svg icon (LP: #840673)
    - debian/patches:
      + 01_serverlist.patch: Numerous changes to default serverlist.
      + 02_ubuntu_default_server.patch: select "Ubuntu servers" by
        default.
      + 45_brand_ctcp_version.patch: Add Ubuntu brand to CTCP version
        response.
      + 70_notification_strings_shorten.patch: Shorten notification
        strings.
      + 71_fix_nick_not_to_highlight.patch: Fix "nicks not to hightlight"
        for privmsg
      + 72_fix_accelerator_menubar_toggle.patch: correctly show F9 as
        shortcut to toggle the menubar.
      + 75_apturl-support.dpatch: Add support for linkifying apturls.
      + 76_fix_gfvs_mime_handler.patch: Make it possible to open
        irc:// URI's via gvfs.
    - debian/control:
      + Build-depend on libgtk2.0-dev (>= 2.10.0).
      + Remove conflict/replaces on xchat-gnome.
      + Drop NBS "libnotify1" dependency, just keep libnotify-bin alternative.
      + Use standards version 3.9.3
    - debian/rules: Make build independent of the python version.
    - Added description to patch 76_fix_gfvs_mime_handler.patch.
  * debian/patches:
    - deleted 73_libnotify07.patch: excess notifications from xchat under Gnome Shell
      is fixed by the new patch 66_load_libnotify4.patch.

xchat (2.8.8-7.1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Non-maintainer upload.
  * Dynamically load libnotify.so.4 (instead of libnotify.so.1, which is
    no longer in sid) when sending notifications to the system tray, for
    better integration with Gnome 3. (Closes: #682599)
     + debian/control: recommend libnotify4 instead of libnotify1
     + debian/patches/66_load_libnotify4.patch: new patch
    A better fix would be to link against libnotify, but Bart Martens prefers
    to delay this until Jessie (it will be a larger diff).
