Changes:
debconf (1.0.00) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Let's call it 1.0, folks!
* This leaves the following big things for later:
- a better confmodule interface that doesn't eat stdin/out
- container template types
- select list with explainations
- a textual replacement for the dialog frontend that is just as
easy to use, and sucks less
- better developer's documentation
- regression tests
- everything else in the TODO file
* I mention a dialog frontend replacement that does not suck. The slang
frontend was intended to be just that, but it is a failure, with big
problems like unscrollable extended descriptions, UI clunkiness, etc.
Nobody wants to fix these issues, and so the best thing to do is remove
it, before a lot of people begin to use it.
Closes: #66170, #81344, #96302, #74722, #77085, #101643
* Removing the slang frontend also involved:
- getting rid of debconf/helpvisible, which was only used by it
- modifiying the debconf/frontend's template description, thus making
all the translatione be out of date again, right as I release 1.0.
Bleh. I was able to clean up the french template, but all the other
translations of that template were too out of date to live, so I
removed it from them. I am accepting updated translations, and I would
love to get a 1.1 release out with fully up-to-date translations of
everything.
- doc updates
- libterm-stool-perl will be removed, so removed relations to it
- ensuring an upgrade path, if not a very clean one, for people who had
it set to use the slang frontend. You'll get dialog now, and just
ignore that nasty set of perl errors you get while upgrading to this
version, I can't do anything about it w/o some nasty hacking.
* Jordi Mallach <jordi@debian.org> quickly updated the Spanish translaton
and added Catalan as well.
* Allow notes to be saved from the gnome frontend even if they have
already been seen. Closes: #110510
