Debian Changelog sparc-utils (1.9-3)

2006

sparc-utils (1.9-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Gratefully acknowledge previous NMUs.
     Closes: #216131, #246879, #346584, #379414
   * Force 4-byte alignment of global array buf and array buf2 in
     print_all_options() of prtconf-1.3/eeprom.c. That ensures that
     when we cast struct openpromio into such a buffer, oprom_array
     ends up at a properly aligned location, and we don't catch a
     SIGBUS when trying to assign an int to it. Closes: #388315
   * Use syscall() interface in sparc32.c to perform the personality
     setting instead of _syscall1() which is no longer exposed to
     userland starting with linux-kernel-headers 2.6.18-1.
   * Disable installation of /etc/default/audioctl, as we no longer
     provide audioctl utility. Disable installation of /etc/init.d
     and /etc/default directories, since they are empty now. Remove
     debian/conffiles, where /etc/default/audioctl was the only
     entry.
   * Fix CFLAGS:
     - set the correct default (-g -O2).
     - implement logic to honor the 'nostrip' and 'noopt' settings
       in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.
     - make sure that CFLAGS are passed correctly to all sub-makes.
     - tweak sparc32 Makefile to honor CFLAGS we pass to it, instead
       of using hardcoded ones.
   * Do not end the Description with full stop (lintian warning).
   * Update and expand the copyright file.
   * Add myself to Uploaders, with maintainer's permission.

2003

sparc-utils (1.9-2.2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Look people. If you aren't willing to test shit, don't change it, or
     upload it for that matter.
   * Fix sparc32, which Wilmer broke. This caused us great pain, such as the
     buildd starting to build 64-bit by default. What fun to have things like
     that happen.

sparc-utils (1.9-2.1) unstable; urgency=low
