Debian Changelog xview (3.2p1.4-24)

2009

xview (3.2p1.4-24) unstable; urgency=low

   * Compile with -D_GNU_SOURCE for glibc 2.9 compatibility in regex.h.
     Closes: #544252
   * Added Recommends: xviewg-dev, xutils-dev to xview-examples since the
     example sources need the header files from these packages for
     compilation.
   * Moved /etc/X11/xview/textswrc to /usr/share/doc/xviewg/examples/textswrc
     since it's never read there by XView and servers only as an example
     for copying into ~/.textswrc

     - Made xviewg & xviewg-dev pre-depend on x11-common as required by
       policy 11.8.7
