 -- Charles Briscoe-Smith <cpbs@debian.org>  Wed, 9 May 2001 12:29:36 +0100

frotz (2.40-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release.  (Closes:Bug#77358).
   * Moved to "main"; Frotz is now GPLed!
   * Ported old Debian patches to the new release.
   * Default name for saved games now has ".frotz" if Frotz's old save
     format is in use (-Q on command line) or ".sav" if Quetzal is being
     used (the default).
   * Updated to policy version 3.2.1.
   * Removed conflicts against ancient versions of some zcode games.
   * Bumped up frotz's alternatives priority a bit, so that it's definitely
     preferred over jzip.  This should be okay now that frotz is free.
     (Closes:Bug#53430).
   * Comply with the FHS.
   * Built against libncurses5.  (Closes:Bug#69700).

1998

frotz (2.32r2-12) frozen unstable; urgency=low

   * Recompile to fix dependencies.  Now depends on libc6, with no
     version requirement.

 -- Charles Briscoe-Smith <cpbs@debian.org>  Fri, 11 Dec 1998 19:20:52 +0000

frotz (2.32r2-11) frozen unstable; urgency=low

   * Recompile against libncurses4.

frotz (2.32r2-10) frozen unstable; urgency=low

     ".frotz".  (Fixes:bug#21054)

 -- Charles Briscoe-Smith <cpbs@debian.org>  Wed, 13 May 1998 21:44:52 +0100

frotz (2.32r2-9) frozen unstable; urgency=low

   * Move /usr/bin/zcode-interpreter to /usr/games.
   * Add some jiggery-pokery to maintainer scripts to clean up the mess
     the zcode-interpreter alternatives were in.

 -- Charles Briscoe-Smith <cpbs@debian.org>  Tue, 7 Apr 1998 22:26:06 +0100

frotz (2.32r2-8) frozen unstable; urgency=low

   * Doh!  I'd moved the binary from /usr/bin to /usr/games, but didn't
     update the alternatives to match.  Fixed.

 -- Charles Briscoe-Smith <cpbs@debian.org>  Mon, 6 Apr 1998 22:44:15 +0100

frotz (2.32r2-7) frozen unstable; urgency=low

   * Moved frotz from /usr/bin to /usr/games.  (Fixes:bug#19730)
     Technically, frotz is a virtual machine interpreter, not a game,
     but most people are likely to look for it in /usr/games first.

 -- Charles Briscoe-Smith <cpbs@debian.org>  Sat, 28 Mar 1998 11:48:46 +0000

frotz (2.32r2-6) unstable; urgency=low

   * Remove dpkg-geninfo from debian directory and remove call to it
     from debian/rules following debian-policy discussion on `md5sums'
     and `du' files.
   * Stripped /usr/bin/frotz.

 -- Charles Briscoe-Smith <cpbs@debian.org>  Thu, 12 Mar 1998 01:56:53 +0000

   * Removed conflict against the (as yet) nonexistant "tatctae".

 -- Charles Briscoe-Smith <cpbs@debian.org>  Thu, 12 Feb 1998 22:58:06 +0000

frotz (2.32r2-4) unstable; urgency=low

   * Updated due to obsoletion of the `zcode-support' package.
     Use update-alternatives method instead.
   * Conflict and replace zcode-support.
   * Actually install the man page.  (Oops.)
 
   * Updated to standards-version 2.4.0.0.  No changes necessary.
   * Use new maintainer email address <cpbs@debian.org>.
   * New version of generic debian/rules, together with dpkg-geninfo.
     New debian/process based on old debian/rules.

 -- Charles Briscoe-Smith <cpbs@debian.org>  Sun, 8 Feb 1998 21:41:57 +0000

1997

frotz (2.32r2-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Updated for libc6.  (Actually, nothing in the source changed; this
     is just a recompile.)

 -- Charles Briscoe-Smith <cpb4@ukc.ac.uk>  Tue, 11 Nov 1997 02:47:22 +0000

frotz (2.32r2-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Increased TEXT_BUFFER_SIZE in frotz.h from 200 to 500; some zcode
     files overflowed the smaller buffer.

 -- Charles Briscoe-Smith <cpb4@ukc.ac.uk>  Sun, 26 Oct 1997 19:41:47 +0000

frotz (2.32r2-1) unstable; urgency=low
