 -- Dafydd Harries <daf@muse.19inch.net>  Sun, 1 Aug 2004 01:39:38 +0100

typespeed (0.4.4-6) unstable; urgency=low

   * debian/postinst:
     - Only do configuration things when called with "configure".
     - Don't fail if there are no high score files to move.
   * debian/changelog:
     - Insert entries by security team that went missing.

 -- Dafydd Harries <daf@muse.19inch.net>  Wed, 24 Mar 2004 14:33:11 +0000

typespeed (0.4.4-5) unstable; urgency=low

   * Seems using dpkg-statoverride was the wrong thing to do.
     - debian/postinst, debian/postrm: Remove calls to dpkg-statoverride.
     - debian/rules: Call chmod instead for correct permissions.

 -- Dafydd Harries <daf@muse.19inch.net>  Wed, 24 Mar 2004 12:55:44 +0000

typespeed (0.4.4-4) unstable; urgency=low

   * debian/postinst: Rewritten; hopefully saner now:
     - No longer tries to clean up files mis-installed by 0.3.5.3 - the note in
       README.Debian about it remains.
     - Don't try to compare md5sums of high score files - my understanding is
       that they're arch-specific anhow. Simply back up existing ones, create
       new ones, and restore the backups - this will create empty high score
       files for new word lists while preserving old high score files from
       previous versions.
   * debian/postrm: Generalise high score file removal.
   * debian/menu: Add quotes in order to satisfy lintian.
   * debian/control: Add versioned dependency on debhelper (>> 4).
   * debian/README.Debian: Tidying up; update name and timestamp.
   * debian/rules: Remove stamp files earlier on, in accordance with policy,
     other small tidyings up.
   * debian/copyright: Fix typo, some tidying up.

 -- Dafydd Harries <daf@muse.19inch.net>  Wed, 24 Mar 2004 01:51:38 +0000

   * Now includes words.dut from Wouter de Vries <sax@debian.org>
   * Migration from /var/lib/games/typespeed to /var/games/typespeed

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Fri, 4 Jan 2002 12:29:42 -0800

2001

typespeed (0.4.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release.
   * Bashisms removed from debian/rules.

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Wed, 27 Jun 2001 20:38:35 -0700

     (Closes: #84672)

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Fri, 23 Feb 2001 16:10:23 -0800

2000

typespeed (0.4.0-6) unstable; urgency=low

   * Appologies to everyone involved for not uploading this sooner; it was
     sitting ready to go in my home directory, but it had slipped my mind.
   * Did s/char merkk/int merkk/ in file.c and removed now obsolete
     flag -fsigned-char as per suggestion from C.M. Connelly <c@eskimo.com>
     in Bug#66316.  This does not close the bug, as typespeed is still
     unusable on PowerPC and possibly other bigendian architectures.
   * Set Build-Depends: libncurses5-dev instead of libncurses-dev to force
     libncurses5 to be used.  (Closes: #79743)

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Fri, 29 Dec 2000 15:55:24 -0800

typespeed (0.4.0-5) frozen unstable; urgency=low

   * postinst now uses --makescorefiles to generate appropriate high score
     files for each architecture.  This allows typespeed to actually function
     on non-i386 machines.  Nothing else has been touched, so this should be
     safe to install in frozen(potato).  (Closes: #61890)
   * bashisms fixed in postinst and postrm (Closes: #63109)

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Sun, 18 Jun 2000 11:11:07 -0700

typespeed (0.4.0-4) frozen unstable; urgency=low

   * Now compiled with -fsigned-char to avoid problems on powerpc
     (Closes: #61891)

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Sat, 8 Apr 2000 18:51:31 -0700

typespeed (0.4.0-3) frozen unstable; urgency=low

   * Added Depends: fileutils (>=4.0-5) so the postrm script
     doesn't fail miserably in some cases.  (Closes: #61126)

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Sun, 26 Mar 2000 12:39:18 -0800

typespeed (0.4.0-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Set Build-Depends in debian/control

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Sun, 19 Mar 2000 20:22:09 -0800

   * New upstream version.  Re-added directory kludges. (see 0.3.4-1)
   * Some descriptions changed to reflect changes in code and gameplay.
   * Uses manpage provided by authors.  (Section changed from 1 to 6.)

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Mon, 10 Jan 2000 18:09:49 -0800

1999

   * Policy: 3.0.1

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Thu, 21 Oct 1999 01:27:36 -0700

typespeed (0.3.5-6) unstable; urgency=low

   * Moved information about modifications to the source back to the
     copyright file from README.Debian to comply with policy
   * Added note in README.Debian and warning in postinst about bug in
     0.3.5-3 (Closes: #45305)
   * Added Danish translation of Peter Maydell's manpage by Bo Vagner Højer.

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Mon, 27 Sep 1999 22:38:04 -0700

typespeed (0.3.5-5) unstable; urgency=low

   * Now includes manpage written by Peter Maydell (Closes: #43276)

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Fri, 10 Sep 1999 15:22:58 -0700

typespeed (0.3.5-4) unstable; urgency=low

   * Fixes dumb bug in postinst: now does cd to correct directory
     (Closes: #44814)

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Fri, 10 Sep 1999 14:40:12 -0700

typespeed (0.3.5-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Now removes /var/lib/games/typespeed on purge.
   * Reversed the movement of information made in 0.3.5-2
   * copyright now refers to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Sun, 5 Sep 1999 10:33:25 -0700

typespeed (0.3.5-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Moved information about modification made in 0.3.4-1 into
     copyright from README.Debian.
   * Now creates missing /var/lib/games/typespeed/high.words.* in postinst
     to avoid making the high score files conffiles.

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Fri, 6 Aug 1999 16:18:22 -0700

typespeed (0.3.5-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream version.

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Sun, 1 Aug 1999 00:46:59 -0700

typespeed (0.3.4-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * Initial Debian package release.
   * Directories for high score files and word list files were hard-coded
     using #ifdef DEBIAN.  This is a nasty kludge that avoids typespeed's
     need to have all of its files in the same directory.

 -- William Ono <wmono@debian.org>  Fri, 16 Jul 1999 23:43:13 -0700
