Changes since the last upload:
opencpn (4.8.8+dfsg.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream version
* Fix ITP bugs. (closes: #907065, closes: #538067).
* README.harmonics: dropped, we now use the opencpn data.
* README.lucid: dropped, outdated.
* Drop all existing patches (outdated).
* compat level bumped to 9.
* The copyright file is updated and now also supports the repacked source,
but #831870 makes it necessary to use get-orig-source.
* Add 14 patches (0001..0014) backported from current upstream/master,
mostly build fixes.
* Add two patches currently in an upstream PR (0015, 0016).
* Add one downstream patch 0017.
* Patching includes flexible freedesktop plugin paths, see new manpage.
* The manpage which used to be a debian patch is upstreamed.
* The -doc package is dropped in favor of downloading the manual from
the opencpn website. Downstream patch provides HTML pointer-to-docs
page.
* A large number of new build dependencies.
* The -plugins package is dropped, opencpn is not usable without the
default, limited set of plugins.
* A debian/upstream/metadata file is added.
Regards,
Alec Leamas
