gnubg (0.90-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Fix the upstream Autoconf probe for Python to not include extra
shared library dependencies so that we can use it rather than forcing
a specific version of Python. (Closes: #476992)
* gnubg should depend on the matching version of gnubg-data.

gnubg (0.90-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream testing release.
- Upstream released this as 0.9.0-1, but we're calling it 0.90 so that
versions sort. 1.0 is hopefully coming soon, which will sort all
this out.
* Use a stamp file for the install target.
* Use touch $@ to create stamp files.

gnubg (0.16~20080216-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Pass -w to gnubg when invoked from gnubg.desktop to not require a
tty. Otherwise, gnubg immediately exits when run from the menu.
* Add an icon reference to the desktop file.
* Add a second menu entry that runs gnubg with -w without a text
console and add "(console)" to the entry that uses the console.
* Install the All About GNU Backgammon guide.
* Install the PDF versions of the manual in /usr/share/doc/gnubg.

gnubg (0.16~20080216-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream CVS snapshot.
- New SQLite database support.
- Now supports falling back to the 2D board if the display doesn't
support OpenGL. (Closes: #410562)
- Use the specific Vera font files shipped by upstream rather than
reusing font files in Debian since upstream ships their own versions
and uses them for one specific thing. (Closes: #461261)
- Upstream no longer generates the files that cause repeated builds to
fail. (Closes: #442581)
- Upstream no longer uses BLAS. (Closes: #462242)
* Add a desktop file. (Closes: #453140)
* Remove all autotools-modified files in debian/rules clean.
* Use >= ${source:Version} for the recommends between gnubg-data and
gnubg rather than = ${Source-Version}.
* Remove now-unnecessary build dependencies and update to the latest
version of Automake.
* Stop using quilt to manage patches. The package is now maintained
with git.
* Replace GTK with graphical in the short description. Capitalize the
short description per the devref recommendation. Add interface
information to the long description.
* Add Homepage and Vcs-Git control fields.
* Remove the (incorrect) FSF address from debian/copyright. We point to
a copy of the license anyway.
* Update standards version to 3.7.3.
* Update debhelper compatibility level to V5 (no changes required).
* Translation updates:
- Portuguese, thanks Luísa Lourenço. (Closes: #444722)

gnubg (0.15~20061120-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream CVS snapshot taken from the 0.15 release branch.
- Fixes crash when using Postgres database. (Closes: #396445)
- Upstream adopted the patch to use Vera fonts instead of the non-free
Luxi font and fixed rendering issues. (Closes: #396385)
- Toolbar text label display is fixed. (Closes: #396448)
* gnuplot segfaults when generating the annealing graph for the
documentation, so don't try to build the PNG version of the graph for
the time being.
* Translation updates:
- Portuguese, thanks Luísa Lourenço. (Closes: #414918)

gnubg (0.14.3+20060923-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Sign the changelog with the right account.
* Put back in the call to dh_strip that I removed for debugging. My
apologies to the buildds.

gnubg (0.14.3+20060923-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream CVS snapshot.
- Remove merged and now-irrelevant patches.
- New patch to fix a stray backslash in an upstream include.
* Include gnubg.wd in the gnubg binary package and point to it with a
symlink in gnubg-data, since apparently it's architecture-dependent.
Thanks to André Allavena for the report. (Closes: #387186)
* Don't link with libaudiofile. gnubg only probes for it to find a
function that the Debian version doesn't provide.
* Don't link against libncurses; we only use the readline API.
* Be more aggressive about shedding extra dependencies for the
supporting programs.

gnubg (0.14.3+20060812-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream CVS snapshot.
- No longer uses libart.
- Remove merged and now-irrelevant patches.
- Use the same Autoconf invocations as upstream.
- Build-Depend on libtool since upstream no longer includes its files.
- Build-Depend on bsdmainutils, bison, and flex.
* Translation updates:
- Dutch, thanks Kurt De Bree. (Closes: #378416)
- Czech, thanks Martin Šín. (Closes: #382231)

gnubg (0.14.3+20060520-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Drop Guile and GDBM support. Upstream has dropped both in CVS as
apparently neither works well and few people use them.
* Expand the buffer used for message translations, which should fix the
segfaults when running in a Russian locale. Thanks to Jonathan Kinsey
for the patch. (Closes: #364747)
* Install the FAQ and the HTML version of the manual.
* Add doc-base files for the FAQ and the manual.

gnubg (0.14.3+20060520-1) unstable; urgency=low
* Update to upstream CVS snapshot since no release seems forthcoming.
- Include the documentation; the GFDL terms qualify as DFSG-free.
- Upstream now provides the wood texture.
- gcc 4.x and 64-bit patches have been mostly integrated.
- Disable the new SSE optimizations for right now.
- Drop the FTGL dependency; upstream no longer uses it.
* Remove luxi.c from the package and the upstream tarball. This file
contained a copy of the digits from the non-DFSG-free Luxi font.
Replace use of this font with a dependency on ttf-bitstream-vera and
run-time loading of the Vera font from disk.
-- Russ Allbery <rra@debian.org> Sat, 20 May 2006 18:37:17 -0700
gnubg (0.14.3-7) unstable; urgency=low
* Update the AC_DEFINE_DIR to the latest upstream version; the old
version was broken by Autoconf 2.60. Also remove an unnecessary
duplicate setting of _DATADIR. Thanks to Martin Michlmayr for the
report. (Closes: #367860)
* Build-depend on quilt >= 0.40 for the makefile fragment.
* Update to standards version 3.7.2 (no changes required).
* Wrap build-depends in debian/control, now allowed by Policy.
-- Russ Allbery <rra@debian.org> Fri, 19 May 2006 14:21:29 -0700
gnubg (0.14.3-6) unstable; urgency=low
* Fix another 64-bit type mismatch problem and re-enable Guile support
on AMD64.
* French translation, thanks Jean-Marc Chaton. (Closes: #357484)
-- Russ Allbery <rra@debian.org> Sat, 18 Mar 2006 14:27:47 -0800
gnubg (0.14.3-5) unstable; urgency=low
* Fix several type mismatches that were causing segfaults on 64-bit
platforms. Many thanks to Anders Brandt Petersen for all the testing
and debugging assistance. (Closes: #350390)
-- Russ Allbery <rra@debian.org> Sat, 11 Mar 2006 14:44:47 -0800
gnubg (0.14.3-4) unstable; urgency=low
* Disable Guile support on AMD64. It appears to be the culprit in the
AMD64 segfaults reported in #350390.
* Link against libart-2.0 instead of libart2.
* Revert the change to link explicitly against libsupc++. gcc was
already doing this; the problem was with the ftgl-dev library on hppa
and m68k.
* Pass --build and --host into Autoconf as appropriate.
-- Russ Allbery <rra@debian.org> Sat, 4 Mar 2006 14:37:00 -0800
gnubg (0.14.3-3) unstable; urgency=low
* Drop the gnubg-bearoffs package. Instead, the one-sided bearoff
database is included in gnubg-data and the user is asked whether they
want to build the two-sided database. This saves on buildd time and
archive space, particularly on architectures where few people are
likely to install this package (like m68k).
* Include the wood texture referred to by several board descriptions
that upstream left out of the distribution tarball.
* Move the package binaries to /usr/games.
* Document how to get even larger bearoff databases in README.Debian.
* Search in /var/lib/gnubg for databases as well as /usr/share/gnubg.
* Build-depend on autoconf and automake1.9 and run both before building
rather than patching the generated files. This seems to be the Debian
best practice and it makes the build patches less hairy.
* Link gnubg with libsupc++. This will hopefully resolve FTBFS problems
on hppa and m68k, where Debian's static libftgl needs the SJLJ
exception handling routines.
-- Russ Allbery <rra@debian.org> Sun, 26 Feb 2006 23:22:02 -0800
gnubg (0.14.3-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Touch aclocal.m4 before Makefile.in since otherwise depending on
timestamp granularity the package makefile may try to run Automake.
(Closes: #350212)
* Remove stamp files at the beginning of make clean per Policy.
-- Russ Allbery <rra@debian.org> Fri, 27 Jan 2006 20:49:37 -0800
gnubg (0.14.3-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release. (Closes: #201296) - Numerous new upstream features and improvements. - Build with 3D board support, sound support, Python scripting, XML match equity files, and long random numbers, thus vastly increasing the build dependencies. - Build with every supported audio layer, since I'm not sure which people will use and they're all relatively small. - Enable time control. - Upstream now supports GTK+ 2.0. - Don't build with gtkextras since Debian doesn't have 2.0. - libguilegtk isn't used with GTK+ 2.0. - Build with libart for better rendering and HTML export. - Build with Freetype support. - Add a BLAS build dependency for the neural network code. - Drop libzvt; it's apparently no longer used. - Ported to gcc 4. * Removed the manual, which is unfortunately covered by the non-free GNU Free Documentation License. (Closes: #345575) * Added get-orig-source target to download and sanitize the source and include the weights file from upstream in the upstream source. * Documented removal of the manual in README.Debian and copyright. * Move the architecture-independent data (other than the bearoffs databases) into a separate gnubg-data package to save archive space. * Hack on the makefile to try to get gnubg to only link against the libraries it actually uses directly. * Wrote man pages for the bearoff and hypergammon database utilities. * Switch to quilt for maintaining patches to the upstream source. * Export DH_OPTIONS so that gnubg-bearoffs is really only built in the binary-indep target. (Closes: #220259) * Support build-arch and build-indep. Running build-arch will now not build the bearoff database, thus improving buildd speed should they ever be able to support build-arch. * Depend on autotools-dev and pull config.{guess,sub} from it. * Use DESTDIR rather than prefix to override the installation location. * Don't use dh_installdirs; it's not necessary. * Install the upstream AUTHORS file as it doesn't just duplicate the copyright information. * Improve the long package descriptions. * Tighten down the package dependencies since the bearoffs database format may change between versions. * Use the current watch file syntax.

* New maintainer, with prior maintainer's permission. (Closes: #336975) * RC, major bug, policy, and lintian cleanup only. A package of the new upstream source is coming next but will take a bit longer. * Fix compilation errors with gcc 4.0. (Closes: #286867, #323312) Thanks to Andreas Jochens for the patch. * Fix various build dependency problems. - Remove debmake, which wasn't used. (Closes: #288797) - Depend on guile-1.6-dev. (Closes: #340117, #253678) - Depend on libreadline5-dev instead of libreadline4. - Don't depend on library packages, just development packages. - Depend on libgdbm-dev. - Depend on libguilegtk-1.2-dev and libgtkextra17-dev. * Symlink the doc directory for gnubg-bearoffs to gnubg. * Clean up debian/rules. Build gnubg-bearoffs in the binary-indep target. (Closes: #220259) * Rewrite debian/copyright. Include the individual authorship statements from the source files as copyright statements and include the GPL boilerplate from the source files. (Closes: #302960) * Update to standards version 3.6.2. - Build with -g and set optimization based on DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS. * Update debhelper compatibility level to V4. * Quote strings in the menu entry. * Avoid literal ISO-8859-1 characters in the man page.
