gdb (5.2.debian90.cvs20021120-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream CVS snapshot from 5.3 CVS branch.
     - Builds with new bison (Closes: #169656).
     - Fixes crashes without SSE support or when loading core files without
       applications.
     - TUI no longer crashes if there is no debugging information for main
       (Closes: #141491).
     - GDB no longer crashes on "info win" if there are no windows
       (Closes: #158186).
     - Setting some C++ breakpoints works the first time instead of having
       to do it twice (Closes: #110684).
   * Patches updated for new release.
     - Patch 07.manual-vector.dpatch included in CVS.
     - Patch 09.mips-linux-buildfixes-aug02.patch included in CVS.
     - Patch 10.no-readline-docs.patch removed - we still use readline,
       I believe that leaving it as an appendix to the GDB manual is
       appropriate.
     - Patch 12.tui-readline.patch updated.
     - Patch 17.tui-fixes.patch added to fix a TUI problem with -i=mi.
   * Remove useless --enable-shared.
   * Fix a typo in "help maint dump-me" (Closes: #168495).
   * Add a patch to fix build on m68k, from Michael Fedrowitz
     <michaelf@debian.org> (Closes: #163543).
   * Added a patch to call rl_filename_completion_function instead of
     filename_completion_function, from Matt Chapman
     <matthewc@cse.unsw.edu.au> (Closes: #165366).
   * Tag GDB version with "-debian" because we apply patches.
   * Add a patch which makes debugging threaded applications drastically
     (5x - 10x) faster.  Whee!

       mistake; remove generated config.status files.

   * The following has been done by <jdassen@wi.LeidenUniv.nl>:
   * TODO: this version of gdb uses an evil new version of libtool which
     forces -rpath. With lesstif, I got around this by replacing the libtool
     scripts with those from the Debian libtool package.
   * Use dynamic readline library.
   * Install with preserved timestamps.
   * Clean out .tab.c files missed by "make distclean", so the .diff.gz is
     smaller.
   * Clean out symlinks, so dpkg-source works after debian/rules build clean.
   * Several other minor clean-ups of the rules file.
   * Updated FSF address (lintian).
   * Bumped Standards-Version.
