2009

viewmol (2.4.1-15) unstable; urgency=low

   * Transfer to group maintainership with Debian Science.
   * Standards version: 3.8.1.
   * Build-Depends: quilt. debian/xsfbs borrowed from XSF (Xorg
     packaging) to handle quilt patches. Source patches from previous
     debian diff split into separate diffs in debian/patches:
     	   010_build_scripts.diff
 	   100_locale_exception.diff

viewmol (2.4.1-14) unstable; urgency=low

   * Add symlink from main dir /usr/lib/viewmol to docs. Closes: #478551.
   * Standards-Version: 3.8.0.
   * Specify that copyright is GPL v2.
   * Add dh_desktop to debian/rules to register mimetypes in desktop file.

2008

viewmol (2.4.1-13) unstable; urgency=low

   * Use PyObject_Del to deallocate PyObjects instead of PyMem_DEL.
     Thanks Barry deFreese for the patch.  Closes: #469008.
   * Don't create separate links for KDE support files in /usr/share/applnk
     anymore. These are handled generically (for all compliant Desktop
     environments including Gnome) via
     /usr/share/applications/viewmol.desktop.  Closes: #466998.
   * Update debian/viewmol.sgml and doc-base to encode Jörg-Rüdiger's
     name in UTF-8. Regenerate viewmol.1 using docbook2man.
   * Where pythonlib is defined in source/getmachine, add
     	  | xargs echo | awk '{print $1}'
     to ensure only one path is passed to dirname.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Tue, 18 Mar 2008 16:02:08 +1100

viewmol (2.4.1-12) unstable; urgency=low

   * What's so special about American English?  Change en_US locale to
     just en in /usr/lib/viewmol/locale (and /usr/share/viewmol/locale)
     and use it as a fallback in setAtomColors.py. Move existing
     /etc/viewmol/locale/en_US to .../en in preinst. Closes: #446755.
   * Disable kde/install's copying of "uninstall" in /usr/local.
   * Link 32x32/apps/viewmol.png into /usr/share/pixmaps so Gnome can
     get the menu icon too.
   * Standards-Version: 3.7.3.
   * Updated menu section to "Applications/Science/Chemistry".
     Use /usr/share/pixmaps/viewmol.png as icon.
   * Delete libraries from LIBS in source/getmachine flagged by
     dpkg-shlibdeps as not actually used by viewmol (-lz -lXp -lXext
     -lpthread -lutil -ldl).  Likewise remove -lm in source/Makefile
     for tm and readgamess.
   * source/getmachine: use -march instead of -mcpu for i386.

2007

viewmol (2.4.1-11) unstable; urgency=low

   * Add build support for GNU/kFreeBSD (and probably Hurd too).
     Closes: #415591.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Thu, 28 Jun 2007 10:58:10 +1000

2006

viewmol (2.4.1-10) unstable; urgency=low

   * Update for new python policy and new default python version 2.4,
     use dh_python. Closes: #380982.
   * Change to Depends:, not merely Suggests: python. A debatable point
     since viewmol will in fact work without python, but you do need
     python in order to get the full proffered functionality.
   * Use debhelper 5 (>= 5.0.37.2 to be precise, to use dh_python)

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Sat, 19 Aug 2006 19:00:52 +1000

viewmol (2.4.1-9) unstable; urgency=low

   * Updated Build-Depends to reflect current mesa packages.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Tue, 6 Jun 2006 23:51:17 +1000

viewmol (2.4.1-8) unstable; urgency=low

   * Added Categories=Education;Science;Chemistry; to
     /usr/share/applnk/Graphics/viewmol.desktop (adds a menu entry to
     freedesktop.org compliant environments). Thanks, Daniel Leidert.
     Closes: #370683.
   * Add #!/usr/bin/awk to readdmol.awk (removes a lintian warning).
   * Standards version 3.7.2.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Tue, 6 Jun 2006 22:55:28 +1000

2005

viewmol (2.4.1-7) unstable; urgency=low

   * Recompile for new C++ ABI.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Fri, 12 Aug 2005 18:19:06 +1000

viewmol (2.4.1-6) unstable; urgency=medium

   * Exec should be /usr/bin/viewmol not /usr/local/bin/viewmol in
     /usr/share/applnk/Graphics/viewmol.desktop. Closes: #290641.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Sun, 16 Jan 2005 14:11:50 +1100

2004

viewmol (2.4.1-5) unstable; urgency=high

   * Remarkable. The buildds aren't reporting failure over unknown -mcpu
     either.  Enable -mcpu only for i386 and powerpc (in source/getmachine).

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Wed, 22 Dec 2004 10:41:33 +1100

viewmol (2.4.1-4) unstable; urgency=high

   * Use `dpkg --print-architecture` to identify the processor, and only
     compile with -malign-double on i386 (in source/getmachine). Why on earth
     do the buildds say "maybe-successful" when they cannot compile because
     the compilation flags are wrong???

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Tue, 21 Dec 2004 19:24:32 +1100

viewmol (2.4.1-3) unstable; urgency=high

   * Actually, remove the Build-Dependency on libdb4.3-dev altogether.
     Viewmol 2.4 no longer compiles with -ldb.  Thank goodness.
     Closes: #286600.
   * Split xlibs-dev again while we're at it.
   * By the way, the russian fonts are working fine after all. Most likely I
     hadn't restarted the X server after installing xfonts-cyrillic.
   * Selecting a language and saving doesn't seem to have any effect when
     viewmol is started the next time, unless you do "xrdb ~/.Xdefaults" or
     login afresh.  Otherwise you need to reset the language again each time.
     This needs to get fixed.  Logged at
     http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&atid=106845&aid=1088821&group_id=6845.
   * The menu entries at Annotate and below are not aligned against the
     margin correctly, and some of them are being blanked out by the margin.
     This is logged at
     http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&atid=106845&aid=1088824&group_id=6845
   * Did you notice all the scripts are now working in 2.4.1. You can colour
     your atoms various shades of green, or be mesmerised by the demo.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Tue, 21 Dec 2004 16:13:27 +1100

viewmol (2.4.1-2) unstable; urgency=medium

   * Restore lost changelog entries (2.4-2..2.4-5).
   * Reinstate changes to kde/install. Closes: #285409.
   * i386 optimisation is left at i486: tests indicated that i586 offers
     small advantage (in fact performance degraded on my i686 test system).
     As mentioned in README.Debian, recompile for yourself if you use i686.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Wed, 15 Dec 2004 11:01:10 +1100

viewmol (2.4.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream version.
   * Upgraded Build-Depends: libtiff4-dev, libdb4.3-dev
   * Altered Build-Depends: mesag-dev|libgl-dev due to conflict between
     mesag-dev and libgl-dev.
   * Added Suggests: xfonts-cyrillic to help make sure Russian fonts are there
     when needed. Actually, they're screwed anyway. No size 14 koi8 fonts. Pity.
   * Updated the description to that given in the spec file.
   * Compile with -mcpu=i586 on i386.  In my opinion, compiling for i486 runs
     too slow.  Let me know if you really need to run viewmol on a true i486.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Thu, 2 Dec 2004 01:11:45 +1100

viewmol (2.4-5) unstable; urgency=medium

   * Recompiled against libtiff4 (updated Build-Depends in debian/control).

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Sun, 1 Aug 2004 01:04:44 +1000

viewmol (2.4-4) unstable; urgency=low

   * Removed use of -mcpu altogether from source/getmachine, since it's
     just too much trouble when porting to all architectures.
   * Altered kde/install to install KDE icons in
     /usr/share/icons/crystalsvg, not .../default.kde, since default.kde is
     supposed to be a symlink to crystalsvg, supplied by kdelibs-data.
     Otherwise there will be a problem with viewmol's real default.kde
     directory, if viewmol is installed before kdelibs-data.  Installing
     into crystalsvg was recommended by the KDE guys at the debian-qt-kde
     mailing list. Closes: #254247.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Wed, 16 Jun 2004 15:06:08 +1000

viewmol (2.4-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Altered source/getmachine to handle different machine
     architectures under Linux. In particular, use "powerpc" rather
     than "ppc", "i386" instead of "i686" and use -malign-double only
     with "i386".

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Mon, 14 Jun 2004 16:31:52 +1000

viewmol (2.4-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Rationalised the mesa build-dependencies (libglu-dev, libgl-dev) in
     debian/control.
   * There is some python problem with setAtomColors.py, so remove it
     for now out of scripts into examples.  Let me know if you know how
     to fix it.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Sun, 13 Jun 2004 18:28:32 +1000

viewmol (2.4-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * New upstream release.
   * Use `uname -m` not `uname -p` in source/getmachine.
     This means my Pentium II compiles with -mcpu=i686, but gcc docs
     say the binary will nevertheless be compatible with i386, so I won't
     fiddle with it further.
   * KDE support files are now installed in their proper place.
   * Russian font references (locale/ru/Viewmol, init.c) changed to refer to
     fixed-cyrillic.  But I couldn't fixed the russian display of the menu and
     the background text at the same time ;(  I left it in favour of the menu.

2003

viewmol (2.3-7) unstable; urgency=low

   * Recompile for new default python version, python 2.3.
   * Changed Build-Depends to libdb4.1-dev from libdb2-dev. I wonder if I can
     get rid of it altogether, is it really used?
   * Remove man compilation line from debian/rules, along with
     Build-Dependency on docbook-to-man.  Compile the man page once for all
     during packaging, using docbook2man (gives better results than
     docbook-to-man). Fixed some unknown entities in viewmol.sgml. Use
     dh_installman not dh_installmanpages in debian/rules.
   * Standards version 3.6.1.
   * BTW, I've submitted a patch to convert the development version (v2.4)
     to automake, but there were problems with it for non-Debian systems.
     If you want to help fix it up, give me (or upstream) a buzz.

2002

viewmol (2.3-6) unstable; urgency=low

   * Standards version 3.5.8.
   * Changed menu entry to Apps/Science, hint "Chemistry".
   * Suggests: openbabel (babel directory no longer needed in
     /usr/share/doc/viewmol).
   * Bumped Build-Depends on lesstif-dev to lesstif2-dev (seems to work fine).
   * Removed debian/conffiles: debhelper now marks everything in /etc as a
     conffile.
   * As a side effect, automated dependency on python is updated to current
     default (python2.2).  Closes: #171044.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Thu, 12 Dec 2002 20:10:04 +1100

2001

viewmol (2.3-5) unstable; urgency=low

   * Added doc-base control file.
   * Standards version 3.5.6.0.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Sat, 8 Dec 2001 01:01:22 +1100

viewmol (2.3-4) unstable; urgency=low

   * Added -lXmu to default LIBS in source/getmachine. Closes: #90459 (really).

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Tue, 3 Apr 2001 23:33:24 +1000

viewmol (2.3-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Added xlibs-dev to Build-depends.  Closes: #90459.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Mon, 26 Mar 2001 23:15:15 +1000

viewmol (2.3-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * Removed -malign-double from default OPT for Linux in source/getmachine.
     Closes: #89898.

 -- Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>  Tue, 20 Mar 2001 00:03:33 +1100

viewmol (2.3-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * Initial Release.  Closes: #89051.
   * DEFAULTPATH in getrc.c changed from /usr/local/lib/viewmol to
     /etc/viewmol.  This defined the default value of $VIEWMOLPATH,
     where viewmolrc resides.
   * Location of supplementary binaries and sources as defined in default
     viewmolrc was split into /usr/lib/viewmol (C binaries) and
     /usr/share/viewmol (scripts).
   * -m486 option deleted from default OPT definition for Linux in
     source/getmachine.
