gnubg (1.02.000-2ubuntu1) trusty-proposed; urgency=high
* Setting urgency to high because gnubg won't currently run on any
Ubuntu with GLIB 2.41.2 or later. This includes Ubuntu Utopic Unicorn.
* Fix incorrect mutex management with newer GLIB. (LP: #1393105).
- See changelog for commit ecf1359191b2f796a7d63288652dd1a93525417d

gnubg (1.02.000-2) unstable; urgency=medium
* Setting urgency to medium because gnubg won't currently run on any
host that does not have AVX SIMD extensions.
* Return to the previous behavior of enabling only SSE2 on amd64 and not
enabling any SIMD classes on i386 or ia64. We can't assume anything
about i386 processors (at least yet), and I don't know enough about
ia64 to pick good defaults, so err on the side of safety. Wikipedia
claims that all x86-64 CPUs implement at least SSE2. Disable support
for AVX, fixing problems on hosts without it. (Closes: #724685)

gnubg (1.01.003-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
- Now correctly finds GTKGLEXT. (Closes: #713503)
- Disable overlay scroll bars on Ubuntu, which works around a problem
with GtkCList on current Ubuntu. (LP: #1002063)
- Use stronger default settings for the computer opponent.
- Update neural nets for better play.
- Various improvements to the Python interface.
- Multiple bug fixes.
* Drop the override in gnubg.desktop to disable overlay scroll bars.
This should now be handled by the build system.
* Drop special per-architecture handling of --enable-sse. Upstream now
probes for this during configure and at runtime and should do the right
thing.
* Move query_player.sh to /usr/share/doc/gnubg/examples since it
requires editing before it can be used.
* Add some keywords to the desktop file. (It's quite hard to tell what
would be useful here. Backgammon is already covered by GenericName.)
* Simplify debian/rules handling of suppressing bearoff database builds
now that the buildds use build-arch and build-indep properly.
* Move the tools for building the documentation to Build-Depends-Indep.
Pre-build versions of the documentation will be used by the upstream
build system and then discarded during a binary-only build, so this
saves some work installing packages on the buildds.
* Remove the beta software warning from the description. GNU Backgammon
has been quite stable for years and now has a 1.0 release.
* Use xz compression for the binary packages.
* Update watch file for new upstream release naming.
* Remove get-orig-source target since the upstream source no longer
requires repacking and there are now regular release tarballs.
* Rewrite debian/copyright into copyright-format 1.0.
* Update standards version to 3.9.4 (no changes required).
