Debian Changelog imwheel (1.0.0pre12-8)

2008

imwheel (1.0.0pre12-8) unstable; urgency=low

   * Update standards-version to 3.7.3, and debhelper compatibility level
     to 6. No changes.
   * Move Homepage from the package description to a regular
     debian/control field.
   * Don't ignore distclean errors in debian/rules.
   * Don't ship the BUGS file, as it's out of date. Also drop the README,
     as the manpage is more current and has all of the same information.
 
   * Change the default button spec for clarity. Since X now considers
     everyone to have a horizontal mouse wheel when numbering buttons, we now
     skip over four buttons before we get to the thumb buttons. Update the
     README.Debian to match, and add a NEWS.Debian entry to explain.
   * Revamp the default imwheelrc and manpage, mainly cleaning up and deleting
     references to deprecated options. Also edit these options out of the
     ouput of 'imwheel -h'.

2006

imwheel (1.0.0pre12-7) unstable; urgency=low

   * Improve the last patch slightly, by once again allowing imwheel to be
     started without the '-b' option. Many people don't use this option
     since they are happy with the default ("4 5 6 7 8 9"), and therefore the
     last upload caused imwheel to fail to start for them. Now the old
     behaviour is restored, though if you do use the '-b' option, you
     still need to add the spaces between the numbers. (Closes: #359685)

imwheel (1.0.0pre12-6) unstable; urgency=low

   * Apply a patch from Thomas Liebetraut <thomas@tommie-lie.de> that
     allows imwheel to control more than 9 buttons. This requires that
     the button spec format be changed, however. Each button number must
     now be separated by a space (so "0089" becomes "0 0 8 9"). Update
     the documentation to reflect this change. Add a NEWS.Debian to
     explain the changes in more detail. (Closes: #203006)

 -- Christopher Martin <chrsmrtn@debian.org>  Thu, 23 Mar 2006 21:11:37 -0500

imwheel (1.0.0pre12-5) unstable; urgency=low

   * Tweak the build system so that imwheel doesn't depend on libraries
     that it doesn't actually need. Also remove the xutils build-depend,
     which seems to be unnecessary.
   * Adjust the startup.conf imwheel defaults, to better match the most
     common case when using the new X.Org 6.9 or later.
   * Revamp the README.Debian so that users confused by imwheel breaking
     with X.Org 6.9 have sufficient information on the changes to be able
     to adapt and get imwheel working again.

2005

imwheel (1.0.0pre12-4) unstable; urgency=low

   * Update my e-mail address.
   * Bump DH_COMPAT to 5. No changes required.
   * Remove maintainer scripts that handled old pre-Sarge upgrade issues.

 -- Christopher Martin <chrsmrtn@debian.org>  Sun, 27 Nov 2005 12:30:48 -0500

imwheel (1.0.0pre12-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Add a prerm script that stops running imwheel processes. (Closes: #321924)
   * Grab minor fixes from CVS.
   * Split xlibs-dev build-dependency into parts.
   * Fix debian/copyright GPL address: point to GPL-2, not the symlink
     to the latest GPL version.
   * Minor packaging updates and cleanups to debian/rules.

2004

imwheel (1.0.0pre12-2) unstable; urgency=high

   * New upload to force mips to try again; pre12-1 was never installed.
     Still urgency=high since pre12-1 never made Sarge.
   * Improved the readability of the upstream changelog.
   * Minor compilation fixes.

 -- Christopher Martin <chrsmrtn@freeshell.org>  Wed, 29 Sep 2004 10:02:49 -0400

imwheel (1.0.0pre12-1) unstable; urgency=high

   * New upstream release.
     + Re-implements the -k switch in a secure manner.

 -- Christopher Martin <chrsmrtn@freeshell.org>  Wed, 1 Sep 2004 15:12:44 -0400

imwheel (1.0.0pre11-2) unstable; urgency=high

   * Disabled functionality that allowed a nasty local exploit. Urgency=high
     so that this change makes Sarge. (Closes: #267829)
   * Xsession.d xmodmap startup script moved to the "examples" documentation
     subdirectory.
   * Updated the changelog using DEVELOPMENT.TXT on the upstream homepage.

 -- Christopher Martin <chrsmrtn@freeshell.org>  Wed, 25 Aug 2004 20:29:50 -0400

imwheel (1.0.0pre11-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upsteam release.
     + Fixed infinite loop problem, triggered by Enlightenment under certain
       circumstances.
     + Modified gpm no longer included, but it wasn't built anyway.
   * Slight change to the suggested (commented out) imwheel parameters in
     startup.conf (-b "0067" instead of -b "67"), which should make the button
     names in imwheelrc correspond to their purposes more often.
   * Xsession.d imwheel startup script now properly named.
   * Added an Xsession.d xmodmap script (not installed by default), to ease its
     setup, based on the example in the Xsession manpage.

 -- Christopher Martin <chrsmrtn@freeshell.org>  Tue, 8 Jun 2004 11:15:16 -0400

imwheel (1.0.0pre10-1) unstable; urgency=medium

   * New maintainer. (Closes: #249533)
   * New upstream release:
     + No longer segfaults when using "(null)". (Closes: #232353)
     + Patch to prevent "no ~/.imwheelrc" warning no longer required.
     + Fixes the reporting of window classes from GTK2 apps. This may
       require some users to reconfigure, since apps which had
       worked with "(null)" now need their specific window class.
   * Incorporates FTBFS-fixing patch. Thanks to Sebastian Muszynski.
     (Closes: #229409)
   * Scripts to run IMWheel with X automatically are now in place but disabled
     by default.
   * Many other minor packaging changes and updates.
   * Bump Standards-Version to 3.6.1.0.

imwheel (0.9.9pre5-2.1) unstable; urgency=low

2000

imwheel (0.9.9pre5-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Added rm -f mdetect/mdetect to build process; otherwise, the supplied
     binary wasn't rebuilt, causing problems building the package on
     architectures other than i386. Closes: #71443.
     Also added the mdetect/mice directory to /usr/lib/imwheel.

 -- Tom Lees <tom@debian.org>  Tue, 12 Sep 2000 22:46:35 +0100

imwheel (0.9.9pre5-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release (Closes: #36828, #62346). No really major changes,
     except a security fix (buffer overflow exploit), which didn't affect us
     too badly because we never had imwheel setuid anyway.
   * The security exploit mentioned above was fixed in an NMU by
     Wichert Akkerman <wichert@soil.nl>; this is the next official release, so
     Closes: #63720.
   * Added some more stuff to the default imwheelrc:
     - support for gnome-terminal (thanks to danny <danny@spesh.com>,
       Closes: #68683).
