puoi rispoderti da solo (senza croci) per qualsiasi pacchetto (non solo
per X) guardando in /usr/share/doc/<pacchetto>/changelog.Debian.gz. ecco
per esemio la entry di X 4.1.0-15 (cioe' tutte le cose fatte dalla -14
alla -15):
xfree86 (4.1.0-15) unstable; urgency=high
* the "I want super-stable releases every 2 months and CVS HEAD every day"
release
* patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD:
- Alan Hourihane's fix for calculation of DPI when Xinerama is in use
(Closes: #127749)
- SECURITY: Don't abuse the priviledges of the X server to access shared
memory segements in MIT-SHM (Roberto Zunino, Matthieu Herrb).
(Closes: #140862)
- fix erroneous variable reference that could cause Xft to be disabled
when LD_BIND_NOW is used, causing stack poisoning (Keith Packard, Kevin
Puetz) (Thanks, Kevin!) (Closes: #137145)
* patch #064: fix in fbdev driver; fbdev wasn't telling shadow layer when
there was no framebuffer available (i.e., when switched away to a
different VT) (patch courtesy of Keith Packard, Roland Schulz, and Michel
Dänzer)
* patch #065: raped again by Herbert Xu and Ben Collins; you're not
"supposed to" Build-Depend on a kernel package and at the same time the
glibc versions of the kernel headers exclude SiS DRM ioctls that we need
#defined to compile properly. Kludge these #defines into sis_alloc.c
because, of course, it's XFree86's job to know what the uderlying kernel's
ioctl numbers are. While we're at it, why don't we just stop using
standardized constants in our C programs altogether? :-P Oh, by the way,
these are the ioctl's for i386 Linux. Talk to Herbert and Ben if this
sucks for you. (Closes: #139511)
* patch #451: fix for page size problems on ia64 (thanks, Bdale Garbee and
Chris Ahna)
* patch #452: workaround for an ATI expansion ROM problem that is fatal on
HP McKinley prototype systems (thanks, Bdale Garbee)
* patch #500: Gerhard Tonn's patches to enable X server code on the s390
architecture; however, the XFree86 X server itself is still not built.
Also affected:
+ debian/MANIFEST.s390
+ debian/control
+ debian/rules
+ debian/scripts/vars.s390
+ debian/xbase-clients.conffiles.s390
+ debian/xbase-clients.files.s390
+ debian/xlibs-dev.files.s390
* debian/control:
- xlibs Conflicts: xcontrib (<< 4.0) and xsm (<< 4.0); this should help
apt figure out some upgrade paths
- xvfb Suggests: xbase-clients (Closes: #134947)
- x-window-system-core Depends: ${F:XWSC-Special-Depends} instead of
"xserver-xfree86" (see below, should make this package installable on
s390) (Closes: #137587)
* debian/local/FAQ: added new question; "Why doesn't the X server package
just depend on the xfonts-base package?"
* debian/local/Xsession.d/20xfree86-common_process-args: also test for null
return from "which" run on program specified on command-line
(Closes: #133002)
* debian/local/Xsession.d/50xfree86-common_determine-startup: correct and
quote a variable reference to prevent unintended reads from standard input
(thanks, Robert Bihlmeyer) (Closes: #131291)
* debian/local/Xwrapper.config: correct range of permitted nice values
* debian/local/dexconf: give users more information in comment block of
written X server configuration files (Closes: #136438)
* debian/local/dexlet/main.py:
- update BusID validation code to reject hexadecimal digits, and accept
3-digit bus numbers (thanks, Richard Hirst)
- update BusID validation code to accept XFree86's special "-1" value,
which appears to indicate an ISA bus
- store selection_method template from configlet (thanks, Richard Hirst)
* debian/local/xvfb-run{,.1}: xvfb-run checks for existence of xauth, and
exits with an error message if it cannot be found (thanks, David Schleef)
* debian/local/xserver-wrapper.c: change nice() usage to fit SuSv2
semantics; see Debian Bug #140012
* debian/rules:
- define special substvar F:XWSC-Special-Depends to take care of the fact
that s390 doesn't build xserver-xfree86, and still keep the
x-window-system-core metapackage useful
- ship text version of xterm FAQ again (thanks, Laurent Bonnaud)
(Closes: #137529)
* debian/scripts/vars.*: define XWSC_SPECIAL_DEPENDS for all architectures
except s390
* debian/shlibs.local: resynced with xlibmesa3.shlibs (see below)
* debian/xbase-clients.preinst.in: remove obsolete xconsole alternative if
it exists (Closes: #131251)
* debian/{xdm,xserver-common,xserver-xfree86}.templates.ca: added Catalan
translations (thanks, Ivan Vilata i Balaguer) (Closes: #133791)
* debian/xdm.templates.fr: added French translation (thanks, Jean-Christophe
Dubacq)
* debian/xdm.templates.it: added Italian translation (thanks, Matteo
Dell'Amico) (Closes: #135915)
* debian/xdm.templates.ja: added Japanese translation (thanks, Tomohiro
KUBOTA)
* debian/xfree86-common.doc-base.debian-x-faq: correct typo (thanks, Laurent
Bonnaud) (Closes: #137524)
* debian/xlibmesa3.shlibs: "libgl1" to "xlibmesa3 | libgl1" so that packages
using this library don't get a pure virtual dependency in their control
data (Closes: #135443)
* debian/xserver-common.preinst.in: if /etc/X11/Xserver exists, echo a note
it being obsolete, and move it (thanks, Joey Hess)
* debian/xserver-common.templates.dk: added Danish translation (thanks,
Dennis Haney) (Closes: #131611)
* debian/xserver-common.templates.fr: updated French translation (thanks,
Jean-Christophe Dubacq)
* debian/xserver-common.templates.it: added Italian translation (thanks,
Matteo Dell'Amico) (Closes: #135908)
* debian/xserver-common.templates.ja: updated Japanese translation (thanks,
Tomohiro KUBOTA) (Closes: #137861)
* debian/xserver-xfree86.config:
- big-time changes, mostly to support DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
- documented proper syntax for the shell functions used
- changed syntax of exiting validate_* functions so that question priority
is supplied as an argument, and updated all function invocations to
correspond to this
- new functions; validate_bus_id_db_input(),
validate_monitor_frequency_db_input(), and auto_answer(); use these
new validate_* functions when getting bus ID's and monitor data, instead
of inlining the code
- stopped using and eliminated tsl() function; dropped in favor of
auto_answer() instead
- collect information about installed video cards in one pass at the
beginning of the script, and set NSERVERS, NDRIVERS, NCARDS, and MULTIHEAD accordingly
- MULTIHEAD is now set if NCARDS is greater than one, not NSERVERS
- updated and added some debugging messages
- migrated debconf questions that *MUST* have answers, and do not have
"safe" defaults, to use auto_answer() instead, note that if you do not
pre-answer these questions and configure this package with the
noninteractive frontend, the X server is NOT guaranteed to be configured
in a sane way
- change all autodetect questions to use auto_answer() function, set to
false if the question cannot be asked, and stop setting the seen flag to
false before asking the question (Closes: #137869)
- specify MAY_BE_NULL variable on the same line as the call to
validate_string_db_input, always
- handle case where mdetect returns no output at all; also, break out of
autodetection loop after one iteration if the autodetection question is
not being aksed
- don't do string compares on $?
- pre-answer video card and monitor identifier questions with
locale-specific generic answer when a default cannot be determined with
probing
* debian/xserver-xfree86.templates.fr: updated French translation (thanks,
Jean-Christophe Dubacq)
* debian/xserver-xfree86.templates.it: added Italian translation (thanks,
Matteo Dell'Amico and Emanuele Aina) (Closes: #135966)
* debian/xserver-xfree86.templates.ja: updated Japanese translation (thanks,
Tomohiro KUBOTA)
