Description: 
 vtwm       - Virtual Tab Window Manager
Closes: 193695 194110 194158 201738 201741 225945 286951
Changes: 
 vtwm (5.4.6b-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Update to new upstream version.  (Closes: #193695)
     + Fixes problem where certain window types (often transient dialogs) cause
       VTWM to restart itself.  (Closes: #286951)
     + The "VirtualDesktopFont" configuration variable is now documented under
       that name, instead of the incorrect "VirtualFont".  (Closes: #201738)
   * Resync Debian patches with new version.
     + Fix for gram.y is now upstream.
     + Replace VTWMLIBDIR symbol with VTWMCONFDIR since all we use it for is
       installation of the configuration file.  Create a new TWMCONFDIR symbol,
       which we use to locate twm's configration file.  If Imake defines
       EtcX11Directory, use a subdirectory of ETCX11DIR for vtwm's
       configuration; otherwise, use a subdirectory of LIBDIR.  (This is an
       improved -- and hopefully upstream-tolerable -- version of a patch
       previously applied.)
   * Update copyright information:
     + Update URL to new source version and hosting location.
     + Update list of copyright holders, authors and contributors based on
       current version of manual page.
     + Undocument Martin "Joey" Schulze as a Debian package author, as he
       wasn't responsible for *this* packaging (which has been done at least 3
       times from scratch in the past 10 years, most recently by me).
       Acknowledge Joey's previous packaging.
     + Update my copyright notice.  I have never signed a written instrument
       assigning my copyright in the packaging desiderata to Software in the
       Public Interest, Inc., so it's probably misleading to claim the
       copyright belongs to them.
   * Rewrite package's extended description based on current information from
     upstream.
   * Update build-dependencies to depend on real X protocol header and library
     development packages, rather than xlibs-dev, which is a dummy package
     nowadays.
   * Update menu item quoting functions in vtwm's menu-method file to align
     them with twm's, which are a little easier to understand.
   * Add support for launching other window managers to menu-method file, using
     VTWM's f.startwm function.  Add 10 points to vtwm command's alternatives
     priority per Debian Policy section 11.8.4.  (Closes: #194158)
   * Re-case VTWM's name in its menu entry per upstream usage.
   * Use a debian/compat file instead of the DH_COMPAT variable in the rules
     file, per debhelper(7).
   * Add "FixManagedVirtualGeometries" and "FixTransientVirtualGeometries" to
     system.vtwmrc-menu file per suggestion from Neil Stewart; this should fix
     various problems with placement of transient and pop-up dialog windows.
     (Closes: #194110, #225945)
   * Grab fix to twm's parse.c from XFree86 CVS (revision 1.9, 2001/04/23) that
     fixes line numbers in error messages about the vtwmrc file from being
     double their correct value.  (Closes: #201741)
   * Bump Standards-Version to 3.6.1; no changes necessary.
   * Quote strings in menu file, per Lintian.
   * Tidy up the manual page in several respects:
     + Add copyright notice to the manual page itself, copied from the
       copyright information on twm's source files in X11R4, from which VTWM
       was forked.
     + Fix up the .TH directive:
       - Downcase the command name (rendering a command's name in full caps is
         a presentation decision).
       - Change the date to reflect my modifications.
       - Indicate the source as "VTWM 5.4.6b", not "X11R4-6", since this
         manual page is independently maintained by the VTWM hackers.
     + Fix up the NAME section:
       - Remove spurious paragraph break at the beginning of the section.
       - Use \- instead of - to separate the manpage's name and summary and so
         that mkwhatis is less easily confused.  (See man(7).)
     + Rename the SYNTAX section to SYNOPSIS.  (See man(7).)
     + Use an macros for type face selection in the SYNOPSIS section.
     + Use \- instead of - in the SYNOPSIS section to notate literal dashes
       that the user will type (e.g., when specifying command-line options).
     + Rename the SIGNALS section to ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS (after SUSv3
       manpages).
     + Rename the ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES section to ENVIRONMENT.  (See
       man(7).)
     + Use "an" typeface macros instead of roff \f escapes for font changes
       where practical in the ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS, BUGS, FILES,
       ENVIRONMENT, COPYRIGHT, and SEE ALSO sections.
     + Quote multi-word arguments to the .SH macro in the ASYNCHRONOUS
       EVENTS and AUTHORS AND CONTRIBUTORS sections.
     + Use \(oq and \(cq named characters instead of literal double-quotes
       in the BUGS section.
     + Italicize signal names in the ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS section.
     + Put a newline at the ends of sentences per the GNU Roff info
       documentation.
     + Move the SEE ALSO section to the end of the page.
     + Update COPYRIGHT section based on the information I gathered from
       trawling the source tree.
