  Description     : A light Browser for Pixmaps and Bitmaps


XbmBrowser was already up to Sarge in the Debian GNU/Linux Distribution
and was orpahed on 2005-07-29 by the Debian QA-Team since no one want
to maintain it.  For some weeks I have installed a new workststion and
found out, that xbmbrowser is not more availlable...

After searching the BTS I have considered to download the last Debian
version 5.1-8.2 solved three bugs build the package, made the lintian
test (terminated with success) and installed it.

It works like expected.

The last Changelog is:

xbmbrowser (5.1-10) unstable; urgency=low

  * Forgotten to change the current maintainer in debian/copyright.
  * Converted debian/changelog to utf-8
  * Added forgotten Build-Depends
  * Correcting two unquoted Strings in xbmbrowser.menu
  * Correcting errors in xbmbrowser.{prerm,postrm,postinst}
  * Added missing include <stdlib.h> to xbmbrowser.c

xbmbrowser (5.1-9) unstable; urgency=low

  * Since it was orphaned in 2005-07-29 I push it back because I and some
    other peoples need it.
  * Rewrite of debian/rules to use debhelper.
  * Correcting (Bug#153147) and changing x-terminal-editor to
    x-terminal-emulator in all xbmbrowser menu files
  * Moved /usr/share/xbmbrowser/xbmbrowser.menu to /etc/xbmbrowser.menu
    and configured it as config file. I can not support the wish to enlarge
    the global menu to /usr/lib/tkdesk/... links, since it would mean, that
    I have to add another directories too (this can be done by USER configs).
    But however, I have included an heavy updated /etc/xbmbrowser.menu with
    more security and overwrite protection. (closes: #18005)
  * Patch from Andree Leidenfrost <aleidenf@bigpond.net.au> applied.
    (closes: #153153)
  * Patch from A. Costa <agcosta@gis.net> applied. (closes: #306705)

I have already uploded the package to <http://mentors.debian.net/> and
searching now for a sponsor.

The only thing I have forgotten was to change the debian/copyright file
and the maintainer Info which point currently to Martin Mitchell
<martin@debian.org>
