   * Add Vietnamese translation of Debconf templates, thanks Clytie Siddall.
     closes: #315912
   * Delete the nethack dummy package; make all the nethack-* packages provide

     the packages are split that way. closes: #308711
   * Bump to Standards-Version 3.6.2, no changes required.

       default.
   * Add a README.patches to note which patches are in Debian's Nethack

     later than the entry.

       (Closes: #246265)

 -- Joshua Kwan <joshk@triplehelix.org>  Wed, 23 Jun 2004 11:32:05 -0700

nethack (3.4.3-4) unstable; urgency=low

   * Fix a call to 'su' in the init script that chokes zsh.
   * Remove some old documentation relics (3.4.1 -> 3.4.3).
   * Add NetHack.ad to nethack-x11's examples.
   * nethack dummy package now depends on nethack-x11 | nethack-console |
     nethack-gnome | nethack-lisp | nethack-qt. (Closes: #227192, #227405)
   * Fix xlibs-dev dependency.

2003

nethack (3.4.3-3) unstable; urgency=medium

   * Sigh, lost the nethack (arch all) package last upload. This should
     fix all the testing-related breakage.
   * Joshua Kwan <joshk@triplehelix.org>:
     - More build system cleanups.
     - Remove x11/Makefile.src, missed last time.
     - Remove old warnings and caveats in README.Debian that are obsoleted
       with 18_overridewin.dpatch. (i.e., stick windowtype:tty into your
       $NETHACKOPTIONS if you intend to set it)
     - Applied a really great debian/rules simplification from
       Aaron Lehmann <aaronl@vitelus.com>
     - 13_simple_mail.dpatch: allow our nethack patches to function
       with dgamelaunch (not in the Debian archive -- yet). Does not
       affect gameplay.
     - Delete nh10.pcf.*, somehow during one build nh10.pcf.gz snuck in.

 -- Joshua Kwan <joshk@triplehelix.org>  Mon, 29 Dec 2003 11:16:22 -0800

nethack (3.4.3-2) unstable; urgency=medium

   * Joshua Kwan <joshk@triplehelix.org>:
     - Fix busted PIXMAPDIR that broke nethack-qt and nethack-gnome.
       Was actually in CVS but not applied to the uploaded source.
     - Lose t32-1024.xpm because it belongs to jnethack and doesn't work
       with gnomehack.
     - Clean up the build system by removing redundant Makefile.src's.
       + 05_build_cflags.dpatch replaced by 05_makefile_logic.dpatch;
         thanks Aaron Lehmann <aaronl@vitelus.com>

 -- Joshua Kwan <joshk@triplehelix.org>  Sun, 21 Dec 2003 18:27:07 -0800

nethack (3.4.3-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release.
     - Merged patches: 03_char_signedness.dpatch, 07_explore_mode_save.dpatch,
       13_qt_warning_fixes.dpatch.
     - Manually rediffed: 14_common_config.dpatch
     - Fixed bugs:
       + xnethack segfaults if you close the class selection window
         (closes: #71234)
       + Bustling Town level generation may cause weird store 'entering'
         announcements and inaccessible stairs (closes: #216386)
   * Joshua Kwan <joshk@triplehelix.org>:
     - Use perror() and change some wording in recover.c to make error
       messages useful. (Closes: #72582)
     - Set 'ignintr' in the GNOME default nethackrc to work around GNOME
       library bug #216454. Will not close until the bug is resolved in a
       non-hackish way.
     - As per discussion on debian-devel, turn off number_pad by default
       so as not to deviate from upstream.
     - 16_pixmapdir.dpatch: move all pixmaps into /usr/share/pixmaps/nethack/
       and make all graphical nethacks work with this
     - Keep logfile, record, and perm when backing up old save games,
       because they are backwards-compatible with older versions.
       (Closes: #141843)
     - Remove the redundant 'Drop Many' entry from the GNOME Action menu.
       (Closes: #154750)
     - Use dpkg-statoverride(1) for storing recover setgid information if
       enabled.
     - Add French Debconf template translation by Nicolas Bertolissio
       <nico.bertol@free.fr>. (Closes: #218729)
     - Document QT_FONTSIZE, QT_TILEWIDTH, QT_TILEHEIGHT in Qt nethackrc
       (Closes: #141245)
     - Remove the old /etc/init.d/nethack and its symlinks with a manual
       call to update-rc.d on postinst, due to a sneaky name change that
       crept in during 3.4.2 package work. (Closes: #223496)
     - Fix a few warnings in patches.
     - Make sure nethack-common and all the FE packages always have the
       same version using ${Source-Version} dependencies both ways.

 -- Joshua Kwan <joshk@triplehelix.org>  Mon, 15 Dec 2003 21:49:50 -0800

nethack (3.4.2-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Acknowledge a NMU we missed last time from Daniel Jacobwitz
     <dan@debian.org>, thanks! (Closes: #147166)
   * Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org>:
     - Add symlink from /usr/lib/games/nethack/license to
       /usr/share/doc/nethack-common/copyright. (Closes: #215673)
     - Really include upstream source URL for LISP window system in
       copyright file.
     - Really include LISP windowing system patch from 0.9.2 upstream.
       (Closes: #215899)
     - Add 07_explore_mode_save.dpatch to use correct temporary
       buffer in sys/unix/unixmain.c when munging save file in
       explore mode. (Closes: #203229)
   * Joshua Kwan <joshk@triplehelix.org>:
     - Add 92_enh_paranoid_hit.dpatch to force user to say 'yes' when
       asked to hit a peaceful monster; disabled by default, in-game
       option. (Closes: #62361)

 -- Joshua Kwan <joshk@triplehelix.org>  Wed, 15 Oct 2003 09:03:15 -0700

nethack (3.4.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * NetHack is now comaintained by Ben Gertzfield and Joshua Kwan.
   * New upstream version (closes: #208817)
     - You can no longer eat while sleeping, possibly fixed in this version,
       which closes: #184855
   * Acknowledge NMUs/patches, thanks all around to:
       - Mario Lang <mlang@debian.org> (Closes: #186609, #187167)
       - Brian Nelson <pyro@debian.org> (Closes: #184173, #180215)
   * Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org>:
     - Merge LISP window system patch into dpatch patches.
     - Merge LISP window system copyright into main copyright file.
     - Add upstream source URL for LISP window system to copyright file.
     - Update 12_lisp_windowing.dpatch to upstream nethack_el-0.9.2.tar.gz.
     - Add Joshua Kwan to uploaders list for co-maintainership.
   * Joshua Kwan <joshk@triplehelix.org>:
     - Fix FTBFS caused by 'Invisible' being a youprop.h #define
       and used in a QListViewIterator enumerated type. (Closes: #213874)
     - Fix char signedness issue in gnbind.c (Closes: #170531)
     - Build nethack dummy package in binary-indep target. (Closes: #186619)
     - Steal t32-1024.xpm from jnethack - it's missing from NetHack upstream.
       This allows nethack-gnome to use the larger tileset. (Closes: #140398)
     - Now using dh_installinit; use defaults, so we don't go to
       /etc/rcS.d and start before NIS. (Closes: #164132)
     - No clue how this is meant to help, but it doesn't break anything,
       so let's wrap all our menu stuff in sh -c '' and see what happens.
       (Closes: #168385, #168386, #152232)
     - Allow the administrator to decide whether recover should be setgid
       games. (Closes: #148983)
     - Add a menu item to GNOME menu for readying/quivering. (Closes: #154627)
     - Also fix many qt_win.{cpp,h} warnings.
     - Bump Standards-Version to 3.6.1.0:
       o Use our own CFLAGS, this allows us to use DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=noopt
       o Use /var/mail instead of /var/spool/mail (although both worked as
         the two are still symlinked to each other)
       o Question about old savegame backup becomes a debconf question,
         and moved meat of the logic into postinst
     - Use debian/compat instead of DH_COMPAT, bump it to V4.
     - Use 'ln -sf' and 'gzip -f' so that multiple calls of binary-arch
       work without cleaning.
     - Fixed upstream URL to one that works
     - Fix clean target so that pristine config.h is restored upon clean
     - Removed redundant call to update-rc.d.
     - Compress the nethack-common changelog.Debian.
     - Migrate source modifications to dpatch patches and build-depend on
       dpatch.
     - Consolidate massive amounts of nearly duplicate config.hs into one
       common configuration patch for include/config.h and add additional
       -Ds to CFLAGS for each build.
     - Add some enhancement patches (Save/bones are NOT affected):
         + 90_enh_hpmon.dpatch: HP monitor which visually alerts you when
           HP goes below 2/3, 1/3, and 1/10 of total.
         + 91_enh_menucolors.dpatch: Enables you to specify regular
           expressions to highlight in your inventory (for example,
           cursed/uncursed/blessed items.)

 -- Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org>  Mon, 13 Oct 2003 17:22:01 -0700

nethack (3.4.1-1.2) unstable; urgency=low

   * NMU
   * Apply patch to build nethack-lisp (required for nethack-el)
     (Closes: Bug#186609)

 -- Mario Lang <mlang@debian.org>  Tue, 1 Apr 2003 11:08:26 +0200

nethack (3.4.1-1.1) unstable; urgency=low

   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * Fix build-dependencies so that package is buildable on unstable.
     (Closes: #184173)
   * Build against multi-threaded Qt3. (Closes: #180215)
   * Include qmemarray.h instead of obsolete qarray.h so that a dependency
     on libqt3-compat-headers is not needed.

 -- Brian Nelson <pyro@debian.org>  Fri, 14 Mar 2003 22:25:03 -0800

nethack (3.4.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream version. (Closes: #182742)
   * Upstream included patch to build Nethack on ia64. (Closes: #142079)
   * Boulder -> Landmine segfault fixed upstream. (Closes: #144779)
   * Change Build-Depends to depend on libxaw7-dev | libxaw-dev.
     (Closes: #169995)
   * Top ten list buffer overflow fixed upstream. (Closes: #181854)
   * Mention .nethackrc.gnome, .nethackrc.x11, and .nethackrc.qt files
     (custom to Debian) in nethack manpage. (Closes: #153738)
   * Okay, okay, I made a nethack-console package that has no
     dependancies on any X11 libs or other big packages.
     (Closes: #140303, #142018)
   * Move dependancy on xbase-clients to nethack-x11.  It's the only
     one that needs font making.
   * Note: We define __USE_GNU in sys/unixres.c; looks like the
     constant RTLD_NEXT is only defined if __USE_GNU is defined.
   * Use Guidebook.txt for docs.  For some reason, plain 'Guidebook'
     is full of garbage now after 'make Guidebook'.
     (Closes: #173127, #177252)

2002

nethack (3.4.0-4) unstable; urgency=high

   * Install recover and recover-helper mode 644, not 664. (Closes: #167542)

 -- Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org>  Sun, 3 Nov 2002 22:45:27 -0800

nethack (3.4.0-3.1) unstable; urgency=high

   * NMU by the security team.
   * Import security fixes from the slashem package (Closes: #147166).

 -- Daniel Jacobowitz <dan@debian.org>  Sat, 6 Jul 2002 17:01:05 -0400

nethack (3.4.0-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Change DEFAULT_WINDOW_SYS to "tty" unconditionally for all
     GUI frontends.  This fixes the case where a user sets
     NETHACKOPTIONS to customize just the dog/cat name or what have you,
     but doesn't set a windowtype:tty flag.  Then, the /usr/bin/nethack
     script will not touch NETHACKOPTIONS, and it will give a strange
     error when it starts up the Qt/Gnome version if X is unavailable.
     (Closes: #142055)
   * Patch unixconf.h to use /usr/bin/mail instead of /bin/mail.
     (Closes: #142000)
   * Fix nethackrc.qt -> .nethackrc.qt typo in README.Debian.
     (Closes: #141244)
   * Not defining SCORE_ON_BOTL for the time being -- it introduces
     a save-game file incompatibility, so I will do that for the next
     upstream release.

 -- Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org>  Wed, 10 Apr 2002 12:31:21 +0900

nethack (3.4.0-2) unstable; urgency=MEDIUM

   * Fix recover to use VAR_PLAYGROUND, not HACKDIR. (Closes: #140701)
   * Fix menu entries.  Now nethack-common has the /usr/games/nethack
     entry (assumed to be text; if the user overrides it, they can
     override the menu entry too), nethack-x11 has /usr/games/xnethack,
     etc. etc. (Closes: #140704)
   * Fix a security bug in recover; other users could "recover"
     save games belonging to users besides themselves.  However,
     they could not load the generated save file unless they could
     also change their UID, as the save file name is always ###playername,
     where ### is the UID allowed to open saved game.
   * Now, recover will only "recover" crash files belonging to the
     same user (or any user, if run by root).  Also, it chowns the
     resultant save file to the original owner of the crash files.
     (Closes: #104247)
   * Add hints "Roguelike,Maze,Dungeon" to menu entries Just For Fun.

 -- Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org>  Tue, 2 Apr 2002 23:10:06 +0900

nethack (3.4.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream version.
   * Split into nethack-common, nethack-x11, nethack-gnome, nethack-qt
     packages. (See README.Debian for details.)
     (Closes: #88129, #43764, #78046, #53356, #58528)
   * nethack package is now a dummy package that depends on nethack-common
     and nethack-x11 for backwards compatibility.
   * /usr/games/nethack now managed by update-alternatives; can be
     set to either tty or graphical version.
   * Save files changed format again; prompt to back up and wipe
     /var/games/nethack and/or /var/lib/games/nethack on upgrade.
   * Use dh_installman instead of dh_installmanpages.
   * Use dh_installxfonts to register X fonts, etc.
   * Install dlb utility in /usr/lib/games/nethack. (Closes: #129741)
   * Make sure NetHack.tile_file is not commented out in app-defaults
     file. (Closes: #119673)
   * config files moved to /etc/nethack/nethackrc.* for various
     windowing types.  Config files in ~/.nethackrc.* now supported
     per-windowing type.  (HACKOPTIONS still overrides them, though.)
   * Fixed numpad issue many moons ago in xterm: (Closes: #52744)
   * Unable to reproduce old ?a ?b bug in xnethack. (Closes: #86959)
   * (Oops, typo when fixed manpage in last version.) (Closes: #111097)
   * desparate -> desperate in package description (Closes: #125180)
   * Using --prefix for tempfile now. (Closes: #54586)
   * Shipping with NetHack*autofocus: False in X11 application-defaults
     file to work around odd Xaw bugs that pop up now and again; the
     patch supplied in #94298 no longer applies to 3.4.0, but the
     crashes still show up with NetHack*autofocus: True once in
     a while.

nethack (3.3.1-7) unstable; urgency=low

   * Sorry for being out of touch for a while. I'm back in business
     now that I'm settled down in Tokyo, and have my own desktop computer
     again.
   * Work-around for Xt-related segfaults. May be fixed upstream in
     next release. (Closes: #94298)
   * Use upstream NetHack application-defaults file, and merge in changes
     from upstream nethack.rc for X11 with our customized Debian one.
     (Closes: #95533)
   * Check for existence of old /var/lib/games/nethack dir before
     warning about its possible existence (covers when a user installs
     a pre 3.3.1-5 nethack, purges it, then installs a newer one).
     (Closes: #95536)
   * Fix manpage to refer to /usr/bin/mail and
     /usr/lib/games/nethack. (Closes: #111096)

nethack (3.3.1-6) unstable; urgency=MEDIUM

   * Whoops.  Forgot to copy over the old save/high score files
     from /var/lib/games/nethack -> /var/games/nethack.
     Do so carefully, then remove the old directory. (Closes: #92501)
   * postrm/preinst still had old dir in there. Oops.
     So did /etc/init.d/nethack..  I'm very embarassed. Fixed.
   * The preinst does still look in /var/lib/games/nethack for
     pre-3.3.1 versions to archive them.

nethack (3.3.1-5) unstable; urgency=low

   * Fix FHS bug (/var/lib/games -> /var/games). (Closes: #92501)
   * Just a note, I'm not working on building gnomehack as of yet,
     because with GTK+ 1.2.9 and later, it's quite useless, since
     nethack has to run set-GID and GTK+ >= 1.2.9 forbids this
     (with good reason.)
   * A lot of bugs were reassigned from gnomehack to nethack that
     are not nethack bugs.
     - Nethack is in .orig.tar.gz+.diff.gz format. (Closes: #62976)
     - No alsa deps for nethack. (Closes: #56738)
     - The stairs bug mentioned is unreproducable in stock Nethack.
       (Closes: #72202)
     - Menu entry for creating new game bug?  Seems gnome-specific.
       (Closes: #79771)
     - Options dialog bug is gnomehack-specific. (Closes: #64944)
     - Gnomehack used a different recovery script that was broken.
       Not applicable to nethack. (Closes: #69080, #71193)

nethack (3.3.1-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Buh.  Stupid typo in /etc/init.d/nethack; doesn't actually run.
     Fixed.  Also implemented stop|reload|restart|force-reload (which
     do nothing, as this is a rcS.d-only script) for policy reasons.
   * Lintian fix: make symlink for license file relative.
   * Lintian fix: don't use menu icon "none".

   * Move app-defaults to new /etc/X11 location and make it a

     (Closes: #72584)
   * Fixed LOGDIR typo long ago. (Closes: #65486)
   * Remove call to dh_suidregister and add Conflicts: suidmanager (<< 0.50)
   * Change calls to /usr/X11R6/bin/ utilities to /usr/bin/X11/.
   * Add Depends: on xutils, as we call mkfontdir in postinst/postrm.

nethack (3.3.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream version. (Huzzah!)
   * Wow. I don't have to build with special patches any more; just
     about everything was accepted upstream. Go DevTeam! You guys
     rule. :) (One thing I noticed wasn't patched upstream was
     disabling IBMgraphics on the Rogue level. If people still notice
     problems, let me know; the historic problems with IBMgraphics
     on the rogue level may have been fixed.

   * Patch to fix bones-file handling in /var/lib/games/nethack.
     (The bones-file functions were changed from 3.2.2 and so
     broke my older patch.) Closes: #54961

 -- Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org>  Wed, 12 Jan 2000 21:50:01 -0800

nethack (3.3.0-6) unstable; urgency=low

   * Change /usr/games/nethack script to remove stupid 'max number of
     Nethack players at once' hack.
   * Change /etc/init.d/nethack to work on any lock files in
     /var/lib/games/nethack (use *.0 instead of *lock.0)
   * Patch to fix nasty bugs introduced by separating lock/savefiles
     into /var/lib/games/nethack. (Forgot some /s to a few sprintfs,
     ouch!)
   * Patch to fix recover to work with separate /var/lib/games/nethack
     once again. Closes: #52995
   * Change default cat/dog/fruit names when using xnethack to be
     more.. Debian-y. :)

     instead of user 'wizard', the old default. Closes: #53901
   * Add link from /usr/lib/games/nethack/license ->
     /usr/share/doc/nethack/copyright so ?i works in game. Closes: #53979
   * Make sure we pass arguments to nethack when run from xnethack
     script. Fixes: #54104

     building slink packages easier. Closes: #52968

   * Improve logic in preinst for various combinations of 'install' and
     'upgrade' arguments.
   * Test for existence of /var/lib/games/nethack before trying to archive
     it in preinst. Closes: #52666
   * (Yes, 3.3.0 fixes the Y2K bugs in Nethack! Sorry for not mentioning
      this below.)

 -- Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org>  Mon, 13 Dec 1999 22:15:10 -0800

nethack (3.3.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * Finally! A new upstream version! Fixes: #52565
   * No more bashisms in postinst. Fixes: #36006
   * Use /etc/init.d/nethack and a link /etc/rcS.d/nethack instead
     of /etc/rc.boot/nethack. Fixes: #32441
   * Spoilers split off into separate nethack-spoilers package. (Note:
     spoilers may be out of date now for 3.3.0!)
   * NOTE NOTE NOTE: Save files from 3.2.2 are NOT COMPATIBLE with
     3.3.0 so the preinst will prompt the user and archive the old
     save directory, or abort.
   * Now depends on debianutils (>= 1.13) because we use 'tempfile'
     program in the preinst to get a safe filename for archiving
     into for the above NOTE NOTE NOTE. This sucks, though, because
     slink's debianutils is 1.10, but it doesn't support the
     --suffix we need to make a tempfile with .tar.gz as the extension.

nethack (3.2.2-14) unstable; urgency=low

   * Add test in preinst to make sure we don't check $2 on anything
     but an upgrade, as dpkg can call the preinst with no $2 if
     we're doing a fresh install, and that'll make my test to see
     what version we're upgrading from crash. (Fixes: #27101)

   * Converted debian/rules to debhelper. (Fixes: #14492)
   * /var/lib/games/nethack/{record,logfile,perm} are no longer conffiles,

   * Enabled tiles by default when running with X enhancements.
   * Created xnethack script to run the X-based nethack.
   * Disabled the mail daemon mail-check in X-based nethack, as it
     could cause nethack to freeze if run from the menu entry (as
     opposed to from within an xterm).
