   * Updating bash completion, based on a patch by
     Eduard Bloch <edi@gmx.de>
   * Dropped debian/README.source, long ago pointless
   * Switched to dh 7 debian/rules.
   * It seems pmount already conforms to standards 3.9.1
   * Drop hal support, as hal is obsolescent (closes: #612794)
     - that also means that all pmount-hal related problems are now gone
       (closes: #385238, #580179, #379799)
     - document the reasons in debian/NEWS
   * Disable dh_auto_test as it shows some files were forgotten while
     building the original tarball...

pmount (0.9.16-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream bugfix release:
     - pmount-hal: Minor change to build with dbus 0.91.
     - pmount: If pmount is installed setgid, use pmount's group for gid mount
       option, otherwise use the user's group, as usual (patch from Wilhelm Meier
       <wilhelm.meier@fh-kl.de>).
     - pmount: Consider devices on pcmcia bus as hotpluggable (and thus
       pmountable). (https://launchpad.net/bugs/50226)
     - Fix automake file to ship README.devel.
     - Fix default path of /etc/pmount.allow (regression from 0.9.12).

pmount (0.9.12-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream bugfix release:

       locales). (https://launchpad.net/bugs/49655)

       Closes: #320696, https://launchpad.net/bugs/55422

       https://launchpad.net/bugs/46536
     - pmount: Mount UDF with default umask 000, so that the UDF permissions are not
       altered. Closes: #348080
     - Check for HAL libraries at configure time and conditionally build
       pmount-hal. Closes: #375230
     - Add configure options for external programs and paths, so that policy.h
       does not need to be altered for installation customizations any more.
       Closes: #375229
     - Update translations from Rosetta.

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Tue, 8 Aug 2006 12:21:07 +0200

pmount (0.9.11-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream bugfix release:
     - pmount: Refuse to mount devices to a mount point that is already in
       /etc/fstab.
     - pmount-hal: Do not try mount non-fstab devices to fstab mountpoints.
       (https://launchpad.net/bugs/28920)
     - Update translations from Launchpad Rosetta.

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Thu, 11 May 2006 22:25:40 +0200

pmount (0.9.10-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream bugfix release:
     - Fix processing of hal's mount options. (patch was already applied in
       previous version).
     - pmount-hal: Directly call mount for devices in /etc/fstab. This allows
       non-plugdev users to mount CD-ROMs and the like with GUIs like Gnome

     - Document PMOUNT_DEBUG environment variable in pmount-hal manpage.

     - Patch taken from bzr head.

   * Remove debian/pmount.dirs so that /media is not owned by pmount any more
     (base-files creates it nowadays). Create /media in the postinst instead if
     it does not exist. Closes: #355405

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Mon, 13 Mar 2006 19:15:35 +0100

pmount (0.9.9-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release, only fixes two major bugs in pmount-hal:
     - Fix crash for label-less volumes with hal 0.5.7.
     - Assign a proper mount point to devices with empty labels (with hal
       0.5.7, they became /media/-1).

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Fri, 3 Mar 2006 17:38:07 +0100

pmount (0.9.5-1) experimental; urgency=low

   * New upstream bugfix release:
     - Fix race condition with several parallel pmount instances which could
       cause double mounts to the same mount point. Also, pmount-hal now
       handles this case gracefully and reattempts pmount call with a fresh
       label. (Ubuntu #14415)
     - pmount-hal: Use storage.policy.mount_filesystem as a fallback if
       volume.policy.mount_filesystem does not exist. (Ubuntu #14848)

   * New upstream bugfix release.

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Fri, 29 Jul 2005 13:17:04 +0200

pmount (0.9.2-1) experimental; urgency=low

   * New upstream release:
     - pmount-hal: Ported to new dbus 0.3x/hal 0.5.x APIs.
     - Supports mounting LUKS encrypted devices with LUKS capable cryptsetup
       package (which is not in Debian yet, though).
     - pmount-hal: Now read volume.policy.mount_filesystem instead of
       volume.fstype. Closes: #306332
     - pmount-hal: Now read umask setting from hal. Closes: #310228, #296914
     - Now mount VFAT with shortnames=winnt. Closes: #310618
     - Fix typos in manpage. Closes: #310802
     - Release an encrypted device again if mounting fails. Closes: #315530
     - Proper error message if mapped device for an encrypted volume already
       exists. Closes: #315527
     - iso9660 file system is now marked as capable of 'iocharset'.
       Closes: #312822
   * Droped debian/patches/02-async_by_default.patch: This is upstream now.

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Sun, 3 Jul 2005 13:25:06 +0200

pmount (0.8-2) unstable; urgency=high

   * Urgency high since this fixes an RC bug, the fix should reach Sarge.
   * Added debian/patches/02-async_by_default.patch:
     - Mount devices 'async' by default instead of 'sync'. This will avoid
       physical damage of flash chips due to exaggerated updating of inode/FAT
       structures and greatly speed up the write throughput. On the bad side
       this makes it much less safe to remove devices without proper umounting.
     - Replace option "--async" with option "--sync".
     - Document change in the manpages.
     - Closes: #309591
   * debian/control: Correct package priority to optional, to match the katie
     overrides.

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Wed, 18 May 2005 15:41:13 +0200

pmount (0.8-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release:
     - Unbreak locking. (closes: #302174)
     - More symmetry between pmount and pumount: pumount now works with label
       name, pmount with a complete mount path (only in /media).
       (closes: #299468)
     - Now supports --umask option. (part of #296914)
   * debian/pmount.postinst: Remove .created_by_pmount stamps from
     /var/lock/pmount to clean up broken locking from versions < 0.8.
     (see #302174)
   * Compile with Sarge's dbus-1 version, since version 0.23.4 is not yet
     available on all platforms. (closes: #303291)

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Mon, 11 Apr 2005 10:24:57 +0200

pmount (0.7.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release:
     - Pulled updated and new translations from Rosetta.

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Mon, 4 Apr 2005 18:02:35 +0200

pmount (0.7.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream bugfix release: pmount-hal now reuses an existing
     /media/<label> directory if it only contains a ".created-by-pmount" stamp
     file, which makes it work with unmounts using umount instead of pumount
     (which happens at reboot/shutdown).

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Mon, 7 Feb 2005 11:40:59 +0100

pmount (0.7-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release
   * Added build dependency libhal-dev, the new pmount-hal (which is now
     written in C) needs it.

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Thu, 3 Feb 2005 15:53:00 +0100

pmount (0.6-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release
     - now mounts vfat file systems with the "quiet" option (closes: #291645)
     - pmount-hal now uses the file system provided by hal (if present) instead
       of always autodetecting it; this saves some time and also avoids
       confusing kernel log error messages (closes: #287815)
     - now supports pmount/pumounting by mount point
     - new translations
   * Explain the "plugdev" group in README.Debian and in the manpages (patched
     by 01-man-plugdev.patch.patch). (closes: #288957)
   * postinst: Check for existence of group 'plugdev' before calling 'adduser'
     to avoid confusing warnings.

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Thu, 27 Jan 2005 09:36:04 +0100

pmount (0.5.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release
     - do not allow empty media labels; this allowed to mount a
       device directly under /media if /media was empty (closes: #288644)

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Wed, 5 Jan 2005 12:44:46 +0100

pmount (0.5-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release, see upstream changelog for details
     - does not remove directories it did not create (closes: #286936)
     - default mountpoint is now given device name instead of symlink-resolved
       one to support nicer names from symlinks (closes: #286695)

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Tue, 23 Nov 2004 16:12:41 +0100

pmount (0.4.2-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * pmount.postinst:
     - simplified, the "plugdev" group approach is now used in both Debian and
       Ubuntu
     - protected adduser call with || true; this seems to fail on some weird
       systems if the group already exists (closes: #282145)

 -- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org>  Sat, 20 Nov 2004 16:49:33 +0100
