flashrom (0.9.2+r1141-2) unstable; urgency=high
* Drop alpha and netbsd-alpha from the arch list for now (builds fail).
+ Keeping "urgency=high" due to high-priority fixes in the last upload,
in order to allow those fixes to migrate to testing.
+ It's unclear how well alpha (if at all) is supported upstream at this
point. There's a compile-time #error in the upstream code breaking
the build intentionally on alpha right now.
Alpha support will be re-enabled as soon as this has been sorted out
upstream, but it may take quite a while.

flashrom (0.9.2+r1141-1) unstable; urgency=high
* New upstream release. Urgency high due to multiple critical bugfixes that
could potentially brick the PC (or worse: laptop) of users.
Other important fixes include:
+ Properly writing Atmel AT25 chips would fail on some SPI controllers.
+ Fix breakage with brick-potential on various non-x86 architectures.
+ Fix broken reads on Winbond W25x16, especially on some ICH SPI chipsets.
+ Fix write failure on 3COM NICs with parallel flash.
+ Fix "byte merge" related corruption on some VIA chipsets.
+ Fix some format string bugs.
+ Fix hard hang on some recent (e.g. QM57) Intel chipsets.
* Install new upstream udev rules file to allow users to use flashrom
without root permissions on some (USB-based) programmers.
* Standards-Version: 3.9.1 (no changes required).
* debian/copyright: Updates.

flashrom (0.9.1+r946-1) unstable; urgency=high
* New upstream release.
+ Urgency high, as it fixes multiple important bugs, including such bugs
which can potentially "brick" a user's mainboard. Details at
http://www.flashrom.org/pipermail/flashrom/2010-March/002507.html.
+ This build should have a non-truncated manpage (Closes: #566217).
* Standards-Version: 3.8.4 (no changes required).

flashrom (0.9+r631-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
+ The command line usage has changed a bit in this release:
+ Combined operations like -wv or -Ewv are no longer allowed.
+ The -w option automatically does an auto-verify after writing
(but you can also explicitly do it via 'flashrom -v file').
+ The -E option is also automatically verified per default.
+ Support for external programmers was added (-p), see manpage.
+ Acer Aspire One is now marked unsupported upstream (Closes: #528308).
* Add build-dependency on libftdi-dev, flashrom now supports an
external libftdi-based programmer (ft2232spi).
* debian/patches/20_drop_svndef.patch: Drop, we use 'make tarball' now,
which properly handles svn version printing in flashrom.
* Standards-Version: 3.8.2 (no changes required).
* debian/copyright: Update.

flashrom (0.0+r3274-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
* debian/control:
+ pciutils-dev was renamed to libpci-dev (Closes: #478379).
+ Drop ia64 from architectures list for now, unlikely to work.
+ Don't link with -lz anymore, don't build-depend on zlib1g-dev.
We don't explicitly need zlib, libpci-dev now properly depends on it.
* Add upstream changelog ('svn log' output) to the package (Closes: #467398).

flashrom (0.0+r3073-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release (Closes: #462248). + Flashrom is now installed in /usr/sbin instead of /usr/bin. + The manpage is now in section 8 (not 1). + Fix broken references to old bug tracker URL (Closes: #460554). * Restrict list of architectures to the known-working ones for now. More architectures will gradually be re-added if we're sure they work. + These are known to work: amd64, i386, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386 + These should work (untested, though): alpha, hurd-i386, ia64, netbsd-alpha, netbsd-i386 + These are disabled for now, as flashrom will very likely not work: arm, armel, armeb, hppa, m32r, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, sh, sparc, s390 * Standards-Version: 3.7.3 (no changes required). * debian/control: + Add Homepage field. + Update package description. * debian/copyright: Update URLs and list of authors. * Simplified packaging a bit.

2007
flashrom (0.0+r2769-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
* Do not attempt to build flashrom on S/390, as it doesn't build
and is not useful there anyway (Closes: #404342, #418712).
It is yet to be determined on which other architectures flashrom can
work and on which not.
* Honour DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip variable by removing hardcoded 'strip'
invocation in the Makefile and letting cdbs handle it (Closes: #436850).

flashrom (0.0+r2526-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
* Do not compile in DoC support (it's considered unsupported upstream).
This will also make the flash part identification process a lot faster.
