Description:
debram - ramified catalog of available .debs
debram-data - debram's architecture-independent data
Changes:
debram (0.6.5a) experimental; urgency=low
.
* In a change of plan, began to update debram for etch. Noted
that 0.6.5 would not seem to be the last debram, after all.
* Observed that sarge stable users should keep debram 0.6.x installed;
that they should not update to 0.7.x or later, which concern
packages not even in sarge.
* Undertook in and after version 1.0 at least to increment the minor
version number (as from 1.0 to 1.1) when rams move or ram numbers
are reassigned. Noted however that patchlevel incrementation (as
from 1.1.0 to 1.1.1) may still suffice for some smaller changes to
the ramification plan, such as clarifications or small changes to
ram titles and, in some cases, the splitting of existing rams, the
opening of new ones or the removal of obsolete ones. Explained that
the intent in and after 1.0 is to stabilize the ramification plan so
far as the rapid ongoing pace of Debian development permits; yet to
the extent that it does not permit, at least to increment version
numbers appropriately.
* Removed GFDL licensing. (All of debram has been and continues
to be licensed under GPL-2, but for historical reasons parts of
it had been unnecessarily, confusingly been licensed in parallel
under GFDL-1.1, too.)
* Adhered to Policy 3.6.2.1.
* Revised the source generally, the revisions including the following.
- Reorganized the source directories.
- Updated the manpage.
- Revised helper/RelSteps.
- Factored common definitions from the several helper scripts.
- Reformatted the several helper scripts. Made several further
corrections and changes there.
- Pointed readers of debian/copyright to the Debian archive rather
than to the author's personal website for the latest source.
- In src/xref.c, changed "The Ramification's Principal Classes"
to "The Ramification's Principal Sections".
- In src/argp.c, slightly improved the --help list footer.
- Added the new helper/test hierarchy, containing some test data for
the developer's convenience. (What future use such test data
might be put to is not known; for the present only
helper/ramify-whatis is configured to use it.) Noted here that
future changes to helper/test will probably be regarded as too
trivial to burden this changelog with; helper/test will not
normally be tracked here.
- In helper/, added the new scripts find-cmdsel-dupes,
check-cmdsel-debs-data and cmdsel-debs, plus the data file
check-cmdsel-debs.data for the last script.
- Extended helper/check-ram-titles to check cmdsel.txt as well as
debram.txt.
- Fixed helper/buff-expand's response to illegal options.
- Slightly improved helper/Alpha.pm's sorting of names having
several capital letters, so that it correctly sorts "Tm Test"
before "Tm TESTA" despite the capital "E" in the latter.
- Let helper/update-date work also on the README.
- Added appropriate "Notes on the Ramification Numbering System" to
the backmatter of both debram.txt and cmdsel.txt.
* Refined the ramification plan as follows.
- Totally reramified [3600 Perl], from four branches into thirty-one,
largely without regard to the old 3600 ramification plan.
- Similarly totally reramified [3500 Python], from four branches
into twenty-seven.
- Added development notes relevant to the previous two points in the
new file helper/PerlPythonNotes.
- Split the old [1122 Text Scanning and Filtering] into separate
scanning and filtering branches. Consequently, because the
last free number in the [1120 Text Commands] group was the
unsuitable 1129, renumbered the other branches in the group to
make room for the split.
- Split [1211 Compression, Archival and Text/Data Codec] into three
branches: 1211, 1215 and 1217.
- Promoted [1245 Emacs] to a group: 1290. Subramified the new
group.
- Reorganized the [1250 Console and TTY] group.
- Added the new [1315 CUPS].
- Subramified [1320 Fonts].
- Reramified [1350 TeX] from two branches to nine.
- Because [1640 Network Clients and Servers] had no more branch
numbers available, removed [1642 FTP] therefrom, giving it its own
new group: 1630. Reserved the newly available number 1642 for
future use.
- Subramified [2210 Kernel Control and Management of Central
Hardware].
- Added the new [3273 Haskell].
- Retired [4476 X-10], merging its remaining packages
into [4477 Further Unusual or Specialized Devices].
- Shifted [1313 PDF] to 1314, the better to accommodate related
cmdsel.txt numbering .
- Split the new [1276 Gettext] out from ram 1126.
- Split [1115 File Moving, Copying and Naming] into [1115 File
Moving and Naming] and [1116 File Copying].
- Created the new group [3150 Message Passing, ORB, and Interface
Definition], shifting the old ORB rams 3117 and 3147 thereto and
adding the new [3151 Dbus] branch.
- Added the new [8627 Further Network Foundation]. (At the moment,
the branch remains empty, but it is a logical branch and its
analog 1627 in cmdsel.txt is not empty.)
- Subramified [1180 Date and Time].
* Thoroughly revised and updated cmdsel.txt, which naturally lags,
to track Debian 3.1r0a.
* Added version 0.1.1 of the author's otherwise unpackaged DebParse
Perl modules in the new helper/debparse/. (This is not Debram
software as such, but as far as the author knows it has never been
used anywhere but in Debram development, so as it is unpackaged
elsewhere it seems logical to keep it here with the Debram source.)
* Updated the author's e-mail address here, in debian/control,
in src/argp.c, and elsewhere.
* Updated maint.txt.
