included in the previous releases.
* cvs-buildpackage now checks for and offers to abort if there are
uncommitted files in the source tree.
* Now, one may opt to have a default mechanism of gaining root access
for a buildo (I always use fakeroot, and can now put it in
/etc/cvsdeb.conf or ~/.cvsdeb,conf). One can now just call
cvs-buildpackage with no options and build a package ;-)

debhelper 0.74 -> 0.79 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/devel
debhelper (0.79) frozen; urgency=low

dutch (1:0.1e-4) frozen unstable; urgency=low
* Use Charles Briscoe-Smith's postinst, prerm, and postrm scripts
for wdutch. This partially deals with the excessive prompting
mentioned in #7454 and #19600. A proper solution requires changing
all wordlist packages to use update-alternatives, but that is best
left for Debian 2.1.

args (closes: #20383).

pkg-order 1.01 -> 1.02 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/misc
pkg-order 1.02 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/misc

sgml-data 0.10 -> 0.11 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/text

sgml-data (0.11) frozen unstable; urgency=low

sgmlspm 1.03ii-5 -> 1.03ii-6 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/text

wenglish 1.0-8 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/text
wenglish (1.0-8) frozen unstable; urgency=low
* Rewrite maintainer scripts, and properly this time (and thus fixes
bug 7454 slightly better than last time, but still not completely;
that will be done in slink). All cases handled, and it's properly
tested. The new scripts used here are intended to go in all the
w<language> dictionary packages before the release of hamm so that
they all ask questions consistently, and only when they need to.
(If all the dictionary packages use these, bug 19600 will be fixed.)
Major changes are:
* Don't randomize the /etc/dictionary symlink on mass-upgrade.
* No longer use relative symlinks between top-level directories.
* Don't remove /etc/dictionary symlink, which records the system's
default dictionary language, unless the corresponding dictionary is
being purged.

* Gack. Maybe I should actually -install- the postrm script?
(How embarrassing.) Postrm script now installed properly.
* Remove leftover half-email from the end of the changelog. (How did
that get there?)
* Remove quibble from copyright file; simple lists of words can't
be copyrighted.
wfrench - The french dictionary words for /usr/dict.
wfrench 1.0-6 -> 1.0-6.1 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/text
wfrench 1.0-6.1 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/text
wfrench (1.0-6.1) frozen unstable; urgency=low
* Non-maintainer release.
* Use the same postinst, prerm, and postrm scripts for wfrench as for
the other wordlist packages. This partially deals with the excessive
prompting mentioned in #7454 and #19600. A proper solution requires
changing all wordlist packages to use update-alternatives, but that
is best left for Debian 2.1.

prompting mentioned in #7454 and #19600. A proper solution requires
changing all wordlist packages to use update-alternatives, but that
is best left for Debian 2.1.
* Updated FSF address in copyright file.

wspanish 1.0-6 -> 1.0-6.1 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/text
wspanish 1.0-6.1 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/text
wspanish (1.0-6.1) frozen unstable; urgency=low
* Non-maintainer release.
* Use the same postinst, prerm, and postrm scripts for wspanish as for
the other wordlist packages. This partially deals with the excessive
prompting mentioned in #7454 and #19600. A proper solution requires
changing all wordlist packages to use update-alternatives, but that
is best left for Debian 2.1.
