netcat (1.10-28) unstable; urgency=low
* Add patch: 25_tos.dpatch. I'm not exactly sure how this happened, but I
never got mail for this report and was just combing through bugs tagged
"patch" now. Hooray for year-and-a-half late fixes. Also added some
documentation to it. (Closes: #275753)
* Standards-Version: 3.6.2.

2002
netcat (1.10-22) unstable; urgency=low
* Broke apart all the various patches that have accumulated over the years,
and put them in a crappy, ad-hoc DBS-like system. This is nowhere near
perfect, but I'd rather wait for the new dpkg-source than muck around with
my 4.5-year-old .orig.tar.gz just so I can repack things in such a way
that DBS is usable. In the long run, separating the patches should make
maintenance much easier, although technically getting that to work
(without simply using DBS) may take a few tries. I'm not going to attempt
to get this into Woody or anything.
* Applied patch to prevent possible buffer overflow (Closes: #145801)
* Updated URL and email in debian/netcat.copyright (Hobbit has been at
@Stake for a while; I sent him a ping email with the split-up patches.)
* The nc binary is now installed into /bin (thanks to Robot101, doogie, and
dsp for bringing this up on IRC.) As far as I can tell, there aren't
really any general-purpose networking tools available on a Debian system
without /usr mounted, and this should hopefully fix that. If anyone
disagrees I'd be happy to listen to whatever objections they have. Perhaps
netcat's priority should be raised to standard in light of this, but I'll
wait and see.

netcat (1.10-21) unstable; urgency=low

2001
netcat (1.10-20) unstable; urgency=low
* Moved around shutdown call in -q patch to be more compatible with standard
nc. Thanks to Dmitry Chernyak <cdl@inkasbank.ru> for pointing this out.
* Applied UDP broadcast patch from NetBSD (Closes: #108182)
- Updated man page to document this option
- Also applied patch to use inet_aton instead of IADDR_NONE (which is
obsolete), so that it will work.
* Bumped Standards-Version to 3.5.6.
-- Decklin Foster <decklin@red-bean.com> Tue, 9 Oct 2001 18:08:24 -0400
netcat (1.10-19) unstable; urgency=low
* Reupload source package (my typo fix was lost due to a misconfigured
dput). This should really fix #97583.
-- Decklin Foster <decklin@red-bean.com> Fri, 1 Jun 2001 18:18:17 -0400

-- Decklin Foster <decklin@red-bean.com> Fri, 1 Jun 2001 13:13:25 -0400
netcat (1.10-17) unstable; urgency=low
* Added include for <resolv.h>, which is needed to compile with recent
versions of glibc.
* Added patch to always print "connection refused" messages, without having
to turn on the other junk that -v prints. (Closes: #65413)
* Upgraded to debhelper 3 and policy 3.5.2.0.
* Added DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS =~ /debug/ support.
-- Decklin Foster <decklin@red-bean.com> Wed, 28 Feb 2001 16:53:33 -0500

netcat (1.10-13) unstable; urgency=low
* New maintainer. (Closes: #80305) * Updated debhelper rules to v2. Also cleaned up/moved some targets and dh_* options. * Bumped Standards-Version to 3.2.1.0. * Compress README file, as per policy. * Applied -q patch properly (Closes: #62402). I think that this is also what caused #71616, but I'll hold off on closing that one. * Added README.Debian explanation about -e. This is possibly the problem behind #66355, so maybe I can close that as well.
