Debian Changelog mt-st (1.1-4)

2009

mt-st (1.1-4) unstable; urgency=low

   * Add ".conf" suffix to modprobe.d snippet. Closes: #518245.
     (Just rely on a recent debhelper version to do this.)
   * Bump Standards version to 3.8.1 (no changes).
   * Add a remark for mtio.h (taken from glibc) to debian/copyright.

mt-st (1.1-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Document that udev has invalidated both glibc and kernel
     documentation by changing the /dev/tape symlink into a
     directory. Talk about backwards-compatible changes.
     As there's no sensible default left, this is all I can do.
     Closes: #499152.
   * Minor packaging cleanup changes.

2007

mt-st (0.9b-5) unstable; urgency=low

   * Introduce dpatch.
   * Fix an off-by-one error when reporting mode numbers. Closes: #437259.
     Thanks to Joerg Sommrey for noticing!
   * Prevent upstream from stripping the binaries. Closes: #437588.
   * Do not ignore errors from 'make clean' (upstream only does one rm -f
     there, so there's nothing to ignore anyway).

mt-st (0.9b-4) unstable; urgency=medium

   * Fix #include statements to accommodate the linux-kernel-headers /
     linux-libc-dev transition. This closes an FTBFS bug, so raised urgency.
     Closes: #428948. Thanks to Lucas Nussbaum.

     Castleman.

2006

mt-st (0.9b-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Work around something I believe to be a debhelper issue:
     Fix postrm exit status, closes: #381901, forwarded as #381940.
     Thanks to Eric Lavarde.

mt-st (0.9b-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * linux-kernel-headers was meant to be a _build_-dependency. Sorry.
     Adjust dependencies, closes: #378391.
   * Introduce udev rules to augment the list of scripts that may
     be triggered by module load/unload and device insertion;
     thanks to Alex Owen. Closes: #251114.
   * Entrust most of the installation/removal package scripts' content
     to debhelper.
   * Update upstream hostname in debian/copyright in order to match
     upstream's license file.
   * Include a debian/watch file.

mt-st (0.9b-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * Take over the orphaned package. Closes: #374122.
   * New upstream version, closes: #294646.
     * Copy SG 3.x protocol definitions from the (2.6-)kernel scsi/sg.h
       header. The stinit code provides a fallback, so this is safe
       when running on kernels < 2.6.
     * Introduce a new build-dependency on linux-kernel-headers for
       the copied kernel header.
   * Supply modprobe.d/ snippet in analogy to the already existing
     modutils config file. Closes: #251114.
   * Bump debhelper to version 5, clean up package build process.
   * Remove -g from the compiler options.

mt-st (0.8-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * QA Upload
   * Set Maintainer to QA Group (Orphaned, #374122)
   * Fix short package description (Closes: #374877)
   * Bump up compat level, depend on at least dh 4.0.0
   * Prefer using invoke-rc.d instead of directly calling the init
     script in postinst.
   * Call update-modules only if command exists, otherwise package
     fails to install on module-less kernels (Closes: #271230)
   * Conforms to latest Standards Version

 -- Michael Ablassmeier <abi@debian.org>  Thu, 6 Jul 2006 11:11:04 +0200

2004

mt-st (0.8-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream version.
   * Updated copyright to specify both copyrights and licensing terms.
   * Dropped the .lsm from mt-st.docs, it's redundant.

 -- Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org>  Wed, 14 Apr 2004 16:20:38 -0700

mt-st (0.7-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Run update-modules for purge, not remove in postrm; closes: #145646.
   * Update debian/rules with the new rules for DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS (noopt).
   * Now compliant with Standards-Version 3.6.1.0.
   * Applied a patch from upstream to fix a bug when stinit fails to
     initialize the second of two identical drives.
   * Changed build-depends on debhelper for v 3.0.0 instead of 2.2.0.
   * Removed debian/mt-st.conffiles since debhelper does it for us.

 -- Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org>  Fri, 12 Mar 2004 17:14:20 -0800

2002

mt-st (0.7-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Allow stinit to detect tapes when /dev/tape<n> does not match the st
     driver's idea of tape number <n>. This can happen with a modularized
     st driver that is inserted and removed more than once.

 -- Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org>  Fri, 15 Mar 2002 20:11:47 -0800

2001

 -- Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org>  Tue, 20 Feb 2001 14:38:38 -0800

mt-st (0.6-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Avoid stat()'ing all devices to prevent loading all possible modules,
     we now stat only st* and nst* devices (at the expense of missing some
     device files, but a Debian system ought to have devices named as they
     should...); closes: #85978.

 -- Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org>  Thu, 15 Feb 2001 11:55:43 -0800
