Changes:
man-db (2.5.2-2~bpo40+1) etch-backports; urgency=low
.
* Rebuild for etch-backports.
.
man-db (2.5.2-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Update DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS parsing code from policy 3.8.0.
* Skip building the database on buildds (just Ubuntu buildds for now,
since Debian buildds aren't detectable; see the comment in the postinst
for more detail).
.
man-db (2.5.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream release.
- Make /usr/local/share/man mandatory rather than /usr/local/man
(thanks, Reuben Thomas; closes: #463892).
- Whatis parsing stops at .ie or .if conditionals (closes: #467444).
- In the CJK UTF-8 special case, check the canonicalised encoding in
order that locale specifications such as "zh_CN.utf8" work (closes:
#467249).
- Improve 'man -E' to allow overriding the output encoding explicitly,
rather than implicitly (and unreliably) by changing the *roff device
(closes: #466396).
- Don't emit encoding conversion errors in mandb's quiet mode (closes:
#473862).
- Clean up some loose ends of Chinese support, adding zh_SG and EUC-TW
support (thanks, Wu Songhai; closes: #354321).
- Fix jless support to avoid breaking less (closes: #217519).
* Backport from trunk:
- #include <string.h> in lib/cleanup.c for memset.
.
man-db (2.5.1-4) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Add support for dpkg triggers per
http://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2007/04/msg00076.html. There's no
versioned dependency on a trigger-supporting version of dpkg since this
is an optional feature, but now installation of any package including
manual pages will trigger a database rebuild at the end of the dpkg run
once the new dpkg is available (closes: #133917, LP: #50110).
* Build-depend on debhelper (>= 5.0.59) for triggers installation in
dh_installdeb.
* Configuration always needs to be a superset of triggering, so we always
need to build or update the database on upgrade. After some thought,
I've decided that we can live with doing this unconditionally in the
foreground: mandb is faster than it used to be, hardware is faster than
it used to be, and most builds from scratch will be due to installing
from scratch when relatively few manual pages are installed. Thus, I've
ripped out the two debconf questions dealing with this.
* Move doc-base entry to Viewers (from Applications/Viewers).
.
man-db (2.5.1-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Only replace manpages-de (<< 0.5-4), per Daniel Kobras.
* Backport from upstream:
- 'man -H' (without a browser argument) was completely broken in 2.5.1
and is now fixed.
.
man-db (2.5.1-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Replaces: manpages-de, which provides out-of-date copies of man-db's
manual pages for some reason (closes: #463027).
.
man-db (2.5.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream release.
- Fix a number of problems with the localisation changes in 2.5.0.
Notably, manual pages are converted to the proper input encoding for
troff output as well as nroff output, and manconv's encoding fallback
mechanism should now actually fall back as intended.
- Add a 'man --recode' option to output a source manual page converted
to a specified encoding. This is expected to be used by debhelper to
install UTF-8 manual pages.
- Fix "occured" typo in mandb(8) (thanks, Alfie Costa; closes: #446044).
- Allow only alphanumerics and "-_/:.()" in encoding names (closes:
#446055).
- Enable localisation in accessdb, globbing, lexgrog, and zsoelim
(closes: #448395).
- Allow passing warning options to groff, either using the environment
variable MANROFFOPT or the new 'man --warnings' option (thanks, Ivan
Shmakov; closes: #451187).
- Add 'man -s' as an alias for 'man -S' (closes: #458499).
- 'man -l' guesses language based on absolute path to provided file,
rather than relative (closes: #460014).
- mandb sets the new file's mode to DBMODE in order to try to defend
against strange problems with databases being left world-unreadable
(closes: #430800).
- Don't ignore SIGINT and SIGQUIT just because a decompression process
is running (closes: #462276).
- Update Russian translation (closes: #452417).
- Add Korean support, requiring groff >= 1.18.1.1-16 (LP: #176896).
* Policy version 3.7.3:
- Move doc-base entry to Applications/Viewers.
* Update debian/copyright. Due to incorporating parts of Gnulib, the
man-db package as a whole now falls under GPLv3.
.
man-db (2.5.0-4) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Always pass an appropriate --build= option to configure.
* Add debconf translations:
- Simplified Chinese (thanks, Ming Hua; closes: #447421).
- Finnish (thanks, Esko Arajärvi; closes: #448769).
* Update debconf translations:
- Dutch (thanks, Bart Cornelis; closes: #447719).
.
man-db (2.5.0-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Backport from upstream (closes: #446302):
- Fix apropos/whatis segfault with explicitly specified locale.
.
man-db (2.5.0-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Backport from upstream (closes: #446189):
- Connect up the decompression pipeline in the display_to_stdout case
too.
.
man-db (2.5.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream release.
- Remove /usr/X11R6/man from MANDATORY_MANPATH (closes: #413349).
- man now supports the MANPAGER environment variable, overriding PAGER.
- Resolve ambiguous error message when asking for a nonexistent manual
page that might also be a section name (closes: #421481).
- MANSEC -> MANSECT in German man(1) and catman(8) (closes: #430635).
- Truncate apropos/whatis output to the terminal width by default
(closes: #411721).
- lexgrog now ignores alleged manual page names containing spaces, as
these usually indicate parsing errors or ill-formed NAME sections and
they clutter up apropos output badly.
- Discard stderr from formatting processes when outputting to a pager,
to avoid visual corruption from any error messages (closes: #372939).
- Disallow sectional extensions of alphabetic sections, e.g. n and l
from the default configuration (closes: #391977), and sectional
extensions beginning with a digit (closes: #421481).
- Suppress warnings in --quiet mode (closes: #348008, #378428, #411220;
also closes: #334280 since that suggestion is no longer relevant).
- If MAN_KEEP_FORMATTING is set in the environment, don't strip
formatting characters with col (closes: #340673).
- Implement and use a decompression library. This allows cat pages to be
saved in the background while the pager is active (closes: #18452) and
operation with a read-only /tmp (closes: #165499).
- Add a configuration file flag (NOCACHE) to disable cat page caching
(closes: #196642).
- Add output keys to a hashtable, and skip any that have already been
seen (closes: #259338).
- Execute system utilities by command name rather than by full path
(closes: #385651).
- Add apropos -a/--and option to display only items matching all
keywords (closes: #259340).
- Adjust Finnish translation of "No manual entry for %s"
(closes: #320108).
- Create and use databases for non-English manual hierarchies
(closes: #29448, #281811).
- Improve per-locale directory handling. Directories such as "fr.UTF-8"
may be used for occasions when it is appropriate to specify the
character set but not the country, and so a full locale name is
inconvenient.
- There is a new "manconv" program which can try multiple possible
encodings for a file, thus allowing UTF-8 manual pages to be installed
in any directory even without an explicit encoding declaration.
- Don't escape the hierarchy path while globbing; it isn't necessary and
it causes problems for paths containing metacharacters
(closes: #444187).
* Use new configure options for external programs rather than hardcoding
them in configure.ac.
* Remove code in debian/rules to fiddle manual page paths for Debian,
since the default of $LL.UTF-8 is now reasonable. (An
announcement/discussion about what other Debian packages should do will
be forthcoming shortly.)
* Build-depend on zlib1g-dev so that we use zlib rather than gzip to
decompress gzipped manual pages.
.
man-db (2.4.4-4) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Ignore chown failures, though affected systems are buggy and should be
fixed (closes: #432029).
* Apply results of debconf templates and package descriptions review by
debian-l10n-english (closes: #430837).
* Update debconf translations:
- Catalan (thanks, Jordà Polo; closes: #430857).
- Galician (thanks, Jacobo Tarrio; closes: #430861).
- Swedish (thanks, Daniel Nylander; closes: #430869).
- Vietnamese (thanks, Clytie Siddall; closes: #430945).
- Turkish (thanks, Mehmet TURKER; closes: #430910).
- Portuguese (thanks, Miguel Figueiredo; closes: #431119).
- Japanese (thanks, Kenshi Muto; closes: #431183).
- Italian (thanks, Luca Monducci; closes: #431195).
- Czech (thanks, Miroslav Kure; closes: #431282).
- Russian (thanks, Yuri Kozlov; closes: #431290).
- Spanish (thanks, Carlos Valdivia Yagüe; closes: #431416).
- German (thanks, Helge Kreutzmann; closes: #431448).
- French (thanks, Christian Perrier; closes: #431503).
- Polish (thanks, Wojciech Zareba; closes: #431550).
* Add debconf translations:
- Basque (thanks, Piarres Beobide; closes: #430929).
- Tamil (thanks, Tirumurti Vasudevan; closes: #431063).
* Override syntax-error-in-debian-changelog lintian warning. I'm not going
to edit history from over eight years ago just for this.
* Don't ignore errors from 'make distclean' other than the Makefile not
existing.
* Drop source-compatibility with woody.
.
man-db (2.4.4-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Backport from upstream (closes: #420843):
- lib/pipeline.c (pipeline_start): Don't ignore SIGPIPE in subprocesses;
this has undesirable consequences in some situations.
(pipeline_wait): Flatten SIGPIPE exit statuses to zero instead.
.
man-db (2.4.4-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Update debconf translations:
- Catalan (thanks, Jordà Polo; closes: #412304).
* Backport from upstream:
- src/lexgrog.l: Break whatis definitions at .IP, .HP, .RS, and .RE
(thanks to Ori Avtalion for the report).
.
man-db (2.4.4-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New upstream release.
- Drop "Reformatting %s, please wait..." message (LP: #18786,
closes: #378781).
- Fix "gditview" typo (closes: #317696).
- Avoid splitting up a sentence into two translatable pieces
(closes: #320111).
- Add Russian translation of NAME (thanks, Yuri Kozlov;
closes: #338991).
- Fix mistaken use of .l instead of .I (thanks, Valéry Perrin;
closes: #349208).
- Add Danish translation of NAME (thanks, Henning Makholm;
closes: #353959).
- Skip "exec" at the start of a command, to make old configuration files
work (closes: #353959).
- Ignore SIGPIPE in child processes (closes: #387864).
- Fail with an error message if argv is a character or block device, as
we may well hang trying to read from it and it almost certainly isn't
what the caller intended anyway (closes: #341706).
- Teach lexgrog front-end about pages with multiple name/description
pairs (closes: #342834).
- Fix a slew of memory leaks, including a nasty per-search leak in
apropos (closes: #368749).
- Add cross-references to mandb in apropos and whatis documentation
(thanks, Phil Endecott; closes: #388755).
- Document man -X option (thanks, Sam Morris; closes: #360112).
- Don't try to pass -X or -P-g options to eqn, only troff
(closes: #327772).
- Stop claiming that -d does not display any manual pages (thanks, Dan
Jacobson; closes: #340910).
* Policy version 3.7.2: no changes required.
