Change logs for ncurses source package in Natty

  • ncurses (5.7+20101128-1) experimental; urgency=low
    
      [ Sven Joachim ]
      * New upstream patchlevel.
        - Clarify that infotocap, captoinfo and tic read text files and do
          not work with compiled terminfo files (Closes: #593920).
      * Remove dangling /usr/share/terminfo/k/kon2 symlink (Closes: #522435).
      * Add an ncurses-examples package containing the compiled test programs
        (Closes: #34182).  Stop shipping the sources in libncurses5-dev.
      * Move documentation and section 3 manpages to a new ncurses-doc package
        (Closes: #233400).  Suggest ncurses-doc in all -dev packages.
      * Register the documentation in doc-base (Closes: #451667).
      * Remove the rather useless README.Debian (Closes: #606034).
      * Move libtic libraries to /usr.
      * Tighten the dependencies of the lib{32,64}ncurses*-dev packages to their
        regular counterparts.
      * Provide symbols files in all library packages.
        - Use them to compute the dependencies of the other packages instead of
          messing around with local shlibs files.
      * Ship mlterm terminfo in ncurses-term (see #485448).
      * Ship curses and termcap symlinks in lib{32,64}ncurses5-dev (LP: #485118).
      * Add lintian override for the empty /usr/share/terminfo directory that
        was introduced in 5.7+20100313-2.
      * Stop building the test programs in every library build.
      * Fix non-idempotency of the install (and thus the binary) target in
        debian/rules introduced in 5.7+20100313-1.
      * Do not unnecessarily add /lib32 and /usr/lib32 to dh_shlibdeps' search
        path when calculating the dependencies of the 32-bit libraries.
      * Do not allow dh_shlibdeps to fail for the 64-bit libraries.
      * Drop most patches as obsolete or unused:
        - 09-fix-delscreen-segfault.diff, applied upstream.
        - 06-kfreebsd.diff, apparently no longer needed.
        - 03-linux-use-fsuid.diff, patched code that is not compiled if ncurses
          is configured with "--disable-termcap", as we do.
        - 01-use-d-reentrant.diff, no longer needed since all architectures moved
          away from LinuxThreads and Policy 3.9.1 has explicitly removed the need
          to #define _REENTRANT.
      * Refresh all remaining Debian patches and add DEP-3 headers to them.
      * Remove the fix for bug #127622 from 02-debian-backspace.diff,
        no longer needed.
      * Update patch 02-debian-backspace.diff to get kbs=\177 in all screen-*
        terminfo entries (Closes: #602300).
      * Drop the rather outdated screen terminfo from the debian directory and use
        the one provided by upstream's terminfo.src instead.
      * Get CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS from dpkg-buildflags, adding a build
        dependency on dpkg-dev (>= 1.15.7).
      * Switch to format 3.0 (quilt).
        - Remove quilt build dependency and patch/unpatch logic from debian/rules.
        - Drop debian/README.source.
      * Add a debian/watch file.
      * Extend the package descriptions.
      * Remove duplicate "Priority:" fields from debian/control.
      * Update debian/copyright:
        - Update FSF Copyright years.
        - Mention other copyright holders and licenses.
        - Give a pointer to the current location of the ncurses sources.
        - Stop mentioning Debian changes.
      * Upgrade Standards-Version to 3.9.1, no changes needed.
    
      [ Loïc Minier ]
      * Update patch 05-emdebian-wchar to apply cleanly.
      * Drop 08-pkg-config-libdir patch as dpkg >= 1.15.6 don't set
        PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR anymore.
    
      [ Steve Langasek ]
      * Export LDFLAGS in debian/rules (Closes: #586144).
