tetex-base (0.9-9) frozen unstable; urgency=high
* fixed ugly bug with wrongly purged files of other packes (no bugreport
yet but important)
----- Low Urgency Packages --------------
alien - Install Red Hat and Slackware Packages with dpkg.
alien 6.02hamm1 -> 6.03hamm2 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/admin
alien (6.03hamm2) frozen; urgency=low
* Fixed a security hole in alien generated rpm files that had scripts in
them, that could allow a user to clobber files on the filesystem. Any
such alien generated rpm files currently in existence already contain
this bug, so be careful with them. Such files should be rare, they have
to be generated by "alien --to-rpm --scripts", however to prevent the
generation of any more, it's important that this version of alien makes
its way into debian 2.0.
* Also, fixed --scripts, --single, and --description, all three of which
have been broken since alien 6.0.
* It used to be that only shell scripts could be converted to rpm format,
because of a stupid bug. Fixed.
alien - Install Red Hat, Stampede, and Slackware Packages with dpkg.
alien 6.08 -> 6.09 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/admin
alien (6.09) unstable; urgency=low
* Added a short document on how to generate a diff file for use by alien.
* Fixed a security hole in alien generated rpm files that had scripts in
them, that could allow a user to clobber files on the filesystem. Any
such alien generated rpm files currently in existence already contain
this bug, so be careful with them. Such files should be rare, they have
to be generated by "alien --to-rpm --scripts".
* That bug is even less likely, becuase it turns out --scripts has been
broken since alien version 6.0. Oops. Fixed.
* --single and --description were also broken since 6.0, and are fixed
now.
* It used to be that only shell scripts could be converted to rpm format,
because of a stupid bug. Fixed.
* There has been a change in how rpm outputs the file list for a
relocatable package - it used to strip the prefix from each filename,
and I could get at it in the DEFAULTPREFIX tag. Now it doesn't, and that
tag doesn't exist. The only change I actually had to make was to make
alien send rpm's error about DEFAULTPREFIX not being a valid tag to
/dev/null. All the code for dealing with DEFAULTPREFIX has been left in,
for backwards compatability.
alien - Install Red Hat, Stampede, and Slackware Packages with dpkg.
alien 6.09 -> 6.10 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/admin
alien (6.10) unstable; urgency=low
* Remove a junk file that crept in in the last version.
alien - Install Red Hat, Stampede, and Slackware Packages with dpkg.
alien 6.10 -> 6.11 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/admin
alien (6.11) unstable; urgency=low
* There was a problem converting rpm packages to tgz and slp formats (and
to a much lesser degree converting them to dpkg format): any parent
directories that were not in the rpm, but did have children in the rpm,
would end up with bad permissions (700). Alien now does a smart scan to
detect this and changes the permissions to a more sane 755.
* When converting to slp or tgz, with -g or -s, output informative
message, same as when converting to rpm or deb.
console-tools - Linux console and font utilities.
console-tools-data - Keymaps, fonts, charset maps, fallback tables for console-tools
console-tools-dev - Development files for Linux console and font manipulation.
console-tools-libs - Shared libraries for Linux console and font manipulation.
kbd-compat - Wrappers around console-tools for backward compatibility with `kb
console-tools-data 1998.04.08-2 -> 1998.06.03-1 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/utils
console-tools-dev 1998.04.08-2 -> 1998.06.03-1 into dists/slink/main/binary-i386/devel
console-tools-libs 1998.04.08-2 -> 1998.06.03-1 into dists/slink/main/binary-i386/libs

kbd-compat 1998.04.08-2 -> 1998.06.03-1 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/utils
console-tools (1998.06.03-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
* Made console-tools-data conflict with kbd which contains many
identical data files.
* Made gencontrol use -isp.
* Added dependency from kbd-compat to console-tools-libs to make
lintian happy.
* Updated init.d script and kbdconfig from kbd_0.96a-2.
* `showfont', previously distributed as `shfont' to prevent
name-conflict, was renamed upstream as showcfont.
* Renamed showfont.1 to showcfont.1 (bug in upstream package).
* console-tools-data now depends on console-tools of the at least
same version, as file hierarchy changed, and will probably change
again.
* console-tools-data now conflicts with old versions of kbd only, as
well as with kbd-data.
* Fixed kbdconfig wrt testing and immediately loading a keymap
(fixed do_preserving_keymap()).
* New undocumented program: charset.
* Renamed /etc/init.d/keymaps.sh to keymaps-lct.sh to fix a conflict
with kbd (Fixes: Bug#23582).
* Moved unicode-related examples to their own subdir (Fixes:
Bug#21973).
* Applied patch from upstream (that's me ;) to consolechars.c to fix
occasional problem with interrupted read() when loading a font.
* Passed lintian 0.4.8.
debhelper - helper programs for debian/rules
debhelper 0.90 -> 0.91 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
debhelper (0.91) unstable; urgency=low
* dh_installdocs: support debian/<package>.{README.Debian,TODO}
debhelper - helper programs for debian/rules
debhelper 0.91 -> 0.92 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
debhelper (0.92) unstable; urgency=low
* dh_gencontrol: pass -isp to dpkg-gencontrol to make it include section
and priority info in the .deb file. Back in Jan 1998, this came up, and
a consensus was reached on debian-devel that it was a good thing for
-isp to be used.
debhelper - helper programs for debian/rules
debhelper 0.92 -> 0.93 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
debhelper (0.93) unstable; urgency=low
* Depend on file, since several dh_*'s use it.
debian-policy - Debian Policy Manual and related documents
debian-policy 2.4.1.1 -> 2.4.1.2 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/doc
debian-policy 2.4.1.1 -> 2.4.1.2 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/doc
debian-policy (2.4.1.2) frozen unstable; urgency=low
* non-maintainer release
* rebuild package to fix truncated Chapter 3 (Bug#23408, not marked as
important but should be, since a gaping hole in policy is very
annoying.)
* bumped version of policy, within the document, to this version number,
but not the date, indicating nothing really changed since then
* no content changes
* debian/rules: clean is a little cleaner
developers-reference - Debian Developer's Reference
developers-reference 2.4.1.1 -> 2.4.1.2 into dists/hamm/main/binary-all/doc
developers-reference 2.4.1.1 -> 2.4.1.2 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/doc
developers-reference (2.4.1.2) frozen unstable; urgency=low
* non-maintainer release
* rebuilt since HTML versions of Chapters 1 and 2 were truncated
(important bug, no number yet, bugs.debian.org isn't working;
regardless, this should go in hamm because a broken developers
reference won't win us many friends in hamm, and after all, it's just
text, it can't hurt you.)
* no content changes, except that the version number in the SGML file
reflect this packages version number
* debian/rule: clean is cleaner now
dh-make - Debianizing Tool for debhelper
dh-make 0.2 -> 0.5 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
dh-make (0.5) unstable; urgency=low
* New version as hamm is in the deep freeze
dpkg-repack - puts an unpacked .deb file back together
dpkg-repack 0.18 -> 0.19 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/admin
dpkg-repack (0.19) unstable; urgency=low
* Version 0.16 broke repacking packages that had diverted files in them,
because of how dpkg -L shows that info. (#23339). It turns out that
older versions of dpkg-repack packed up not the original file, but the
file that was diverted to replace it. I've decided that is incorrect
behavior, and changed it so if there is a diversion, the original file is
placed in the repacked package.
dpkg-repack - puts an unpacked .deb file back together
dpkg-repack 0.19 -> 0.20 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/admin
dpkg-repack (0.20) unstable; urgency=low
* Changed how I disable locales when running dpkg -l - now set LC_ALL=C.

musixlyr 1.02a-2 -> 1.1-1 into dists/slink/contrib/binary-all/tex
musixlyr (1:1.1-1) frozen unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream official release.
* [debian/control]: Revised package description;
and revised dependencies to work with Debian 2.0 (Hamm):
Depends: tetex-base (>= 0.9-5)
Recommends: musixtex (>= 1:0.89-2)
Suggests: pmx (>= 1.3.6-1)
* [debian/postinst]: Replaced the obsolete append_db command in
tetex-0.4 with mktexupd in tetex-0.9.
* Removed debian/postrm.
* [debian/copyright]: Updated author's e-mail address.
* [debian/rules]: Added "dh_installexamples auxl-exa.pmx".
* Not fair! dpkg thinks that 1.1 << 1.02a! Added epoch version.
* Please put this in Hamm: postinst in previous versions (<= 1.02a-2)
failed to do its job with tetex-0.9, rendering musixlyr unusable
for first-time installers.
