2003

dict-devil (1.0-8) unstable; urgency=low

   * Edited devils.txt:
 
     under LAUREL s/_vide supra_/LAUREATE/ (vide supra
       is not appropraite when only one entry is displayed by dict).
 
     The following correct typos in the original:
       under FRYING-PAN s/broiling in/broiling is/
       under I s/clearer the/clearer to the/
       under K s/pums/puns/
       under PRE-ADAMITE s/race of antedated/race that antedated/
       under RICE-WATER s/fat which/fat witch/
 
   * Used modified devil2dict from Matej Vela <vela@debian.org> instead of
     my sedscript for pre-processing devils.txt.  This indexes multi-word,
     hyphenated, and apostrophized headwords. Closes: #222494.  This includes
     the fix provided by Grant Hollingworth <grant@antiflux.org> in Bug
     #221190.  Closes: #221190.  Thanks, Grant and Matej,

   * Corrected format of Build-Depends-Indep: Closes: #218707

dict-devil (1.0-6) unstable; urgency=low

   * Fixed typo in entry for woman - s/Greeland/Greenland/ - Closes: #204618
     (At first I thought this might be deliberate - Bierce was fond of
     invented proper names and fanciful expressions, and this line contains
     three apparent typos.  I obtained a hard-copy of the Devil's
     Dictionary, and verified that this was a typo in the e-text.)  (All
     copies of the Devil's Dictionary that I could find on line are based n
     the same e-test as this package.)
