   * QA upload
   * Run "autoreconf -vfi" to fix compilation on GNU/kFreeBSD, thanks to

   * Applied to the file gnats/gnatsd.c the diff between gnats upstream cvs
     versions 1.51 and 1.52. This should make it safe for ipv6 addresses.
     Thanks to Jonathan Guthrie for the patch (closes: #366890).
   * Install manual and FAQ into the gnats package by doc-base, using
     doc-base files submitted by Esteban Manchado Velázquez (thanks!), but

     script
   * [Lintian] Use more up-to-date config.{guess|sub} files (from
     autotools-dev. This should be done more cleanly than just copying the
     files over those provided by upstream but requires too
     many build changes.

       debian/gnats.conffiles, debian/gnats.docs, debian/gnats.examples,
       debian/gnats.info, debian/gnats.install, debian/gnats.manpages,
       debian/gnats-user.manpages: Use debhelper configuration files
         extensively, simplifying the debian/rules file in the process.  Moved
         some existing support files to package-specific names.
     - debian/scripts [removed], debian/common.sed,
       debian/gnats-user.postinst.in, debian/gnats-user.postrm.in,
       debian/gnats-user.prerm.in, debian/gnats.postinst.in,
       debian/gnats.postrm.in, debian/gnats.preinst.in, debian/gnats.prerm.in:
         Use a sed script to replace the functionality of the debian/scripts
         directory.  Replace @KEYWORDS@ in *.in files to coordinate path names
         and and identifiers.
   * debian/control: Reorganized package file distribution and dependencies
     - gnats-user contains all of the common files and documentation
     - gnats depends upon gnats-user
   * Patched Makfile.in files to include DESTDIR variable for file installation

       PACKAGE.{pre,post}{inst,rm} files.

   * Adopted.  Closes: #215366
   * debian/copyright: Updated to reflect current project site locations and
     authors.
   * debian/rules: Very basic cleanups.  Added logical stamp files.  Changed

     files for dpkg-source resulting in a significantly smaller *.diff.gz.
   * Cleaned out GNU arch control files and directories (./.arch-ids).   They
     don't belong in a *.diff.gz, just like CVS directories.

gnats (3.999.20010904-1) unstable; urgency=low

gnats (3.999.20010729-1) unstable; urgency=low

     (I'm very annoyed by doing this, it "fixes" a bug just by ignoring it,
     but I don't have a reliable access to any Alpha machine and I don't
     know a better way how to push the package to testing in a reasonable
     way.)
   * Since the previous "fix" won't work until the top-level GNATS
     configure stuff is reworked, don't build on alpha at all (due to
     deficiences in the Architecture field syntax, this prevents building
     on newly introduced architectures as well).
   * Home page location in description changed.
   * Typo in the item type of a debconf template fixed; closes: #106322.
   * Create `locks' subdirectory in the default database; closes: #104195.

gnats (3.999.20010121-1) unstable; urgency=low

     that means gnatsweb and tkgnats aren't built.

     bugs.  Bug reports on any bugs are welcome!
   * Printed dates include numeric time zone, not a time zone abbreviation
     (idea of Konstantin Kivi); closes: #64883.

gnats (3.113-14) unstable; urgency=low

   * WARNING: Unless some important bug is found, this is the last
     packaging of the 3.113 version.  I plan to package pre-release GNATS 4
     (which is a bit incompatible with the older version) in few weeks.
