console-common (0.7.14) unstable; urgency=high * debian/control: since we are using debconf in console-common's preinst (yuck), add a Pre-Depends on debconf in accordance with Policy 7.2. Closes: #143837 -- Martin Michlmayr Mon, 22 Apr 2002 23:17:21 +0200 console-common (0.7.13) unstable; urgency=medium * This release is needed for woody since it fixes two serious bugs for upgrades and new installations. * Don't fail in postinst if a console cannot be opened (this can happen without vga card, on ssh/serial console). Closes: #60565, #112202, #129242, #129643 * Don't fail when console-data/keymap/full has a bogus value. This is a workaround. I'm still not sure under which circumstances this occures. However, the workaround should fix the problem in all situations. Closes: #110873, #130008 * Don't show dpkg warning when console-tools or kbd are not installed. Closes: #131767 -- Martin Michlmayr Sat, 02 Feb 2002 17:15:01 +0100 console-common (0.7.12) unstable; urgency=high * This release is needed for woody since it fixes a bug in the configuration of console-common and console-data (which breaks base installs) on all ARM RiscPCs. * common.pl: the grep testing for RiscPC displayed output which breaks debconf. Since ARM/RiscPC and ARM has the same keymaps (since the last release) there is no need to test for this at all. The keymaps are converted on the fly on RiscPC by install-keymap anyway. Thanks to Phil Blundell for giving me access to a ARM/RiscPC system so I could find the problem. (Closes: #126633). * common.pl: Define a variable so perl doesn't print ugly warning uring installation (Closes: #127552). * config.in: Update maintainer address (Closes: #127552). -- Martin Michlmayr Thu, 03 Jan 2002 17:00:31 +0100 console-common (0.7.11) unstable; urgency=high * This release is needed for woody since it fixes a bug in the configuration of console-common and console-data (which breaks base installs) on all ARM RiscPCs. * common.pl: there are no "riscpc" keymaps so don't even try to use them. Only use "pc" keymaps on RiscPCs since they are converted before loading anyway. This should fix #126633. * debian/control: add myself to Uploaders. -- Martin Michlmayr Tue, 01 Jan 2002 14:57:34 +0100 console-common (0.7.10) unstable; urgency=medium * Use `tempfile --suffix .gz` instead of `tempfile`.gz in install-keymap (Closes: #114609). * Incorporate ru_RU translation into templates. -- Wartan Hachaturow Sun, 7 Oct 2001 01:42:56 +0400 console-common (0.7.9) unstable; urgency=medium * NMU * Use = instead of == for comparison so it does not break if /bin/sh is /bin/ash (Closes: #111577). -- Martin Michlmayr Fri, 07 Sep 2001 18:30:31 +0200 console-common (0.7.8) unstable; urgency=medium * NMU * s/Standard/Programmer/ in the debconf database for the German entry. This is necessary because I renamed it (see console-data changelog) and some still have 'Standard' in their database which breaks getkmapchoice.pl. Thanks to Gergely Nagy for helping me debug this (Closes: #111255). -- Martin Michlmayr Wed, 05 Sep 2001 23:51:13 +0200 console-common (0.7.7) unstable; urgency=medium * NMU * Don't loop indefinitely on upgrades with ADB keycodes (Closes: #109666). -- Martin Michlmayr Thu, 23 Aug 2001 10:12:03 +0200 console-common (0.7.6) unstable; urgency=medium * The Edward-and-Colin-are-at-HAL-and-I-am-not NMU * Check if the layout template exists in debconf before calling a script which fails if it doesn't. This allows console-common to upgrade if console-data was removed. This is the real fix; the last upload only introduced a workaround which would only work for the future but not for current installations anyway (Closes: #96772, #97354, #108400). * Improved PowerPC ADB debconf template based on comments by Michel Dänzer. * Accept tab at the right spot for Acorn RiscPCs. -- Martin Michlmayr Sun, 12 Aug 2001 16:45:21 +0200 console-common (0.7.5) unstable; urgency=medium * NMU * Don't overwrite 'full list' choice if question is not asked (Closes: #108357). * Don't abort if no layout is found in the debconf database although a family is defined. This happens when you upgrade console-common after removing console-data. The full discussion can be found in #108400. Instead of aborting, getkmapchoice.pl now returns NONE (i.e. no keymap will be loaded). -- Martin Michlmayr Sat, 11 Aug 2001 14:51:02 +0200 console-common (0.7.4) unstable; urgency=medium * NMU * Use a workaround if console-data/keymap/policy does not exist in the debconf database. (Closes: #107700). * Accept 'Norvegian' as well since it might be stored in some people's debconf database (Closes: #107828). * Accept tab and space when testing for the Acorn RiscPC. * Fix the default value for console-data/keymap/policy. * Use PERL_BADLANG=0 in one more call of getkmapchoice.pl. -- Martin Michlmayr Fri, 10 Aug 2001 14:40:25 +0200 console-common (0.7.3) unstable; urgency=medium * NMU * On PowerPC with ADB keycodes, warn the users that they should quit X before continuing to configure their keyboards since it might break the X configuration (Closes: #107484). * Fix stupid typo which causes only some instead of all keymaps to be shown in the 'full' listing. Spotted by Brendan O'Dea. -- Martin Michlmayr Thu, 02 Aug 2001 23:44:49 +0200 console-common (0.7.2) unstable; urgency=medium * NMU * Show a listing of all keymaps so people with adapters or USB keyboards can choose the right keyboard. (Closes: #74350, #85128). Thanks to Gergely Nagy for support and testing! Thanks to Brendan O'Dea for help with Perl. * export PERL_BADLANG=0 so install-keymap does not fail (Closes: #106084, #107134). * Changed the PowerPC/MAC fix for #104298 according to comments by Michel Dänzer . Use pc keymaps in all cases; if ADB keycodes are enabled, disable them and warn the user (closes the whole bug; my last NMU only fixed the 1st paragraph in the bug report, not the 2nd (the less important one). Closes: #104298). * Sort list of keymaps so entries are easier to find (Closes: #94961, #82945). * s/defering/deferring/ (Closes: #106471). -- Martin Michlmayr Tue, 31 Jul 2001 00:32:33 +0200 console-common (0.7.1) unstable; urgency=medium * NMU to fix non-i386 RC bugs. * SPARC can have PC keyboards (Closes partly #74350 and #85128). * Make test for Acorn PCs case insensitive (finally Closes: #85629). * Use PC keymaps on some PowerPC machines (Closes: #104298). * s/differing/defering/ (Closes: #99435). -- Martin Michlmayr Fri, 27 Jul 2001 19:56:08 +0200 console-common (0.7) unstable; urgency=medium * Added support for detection of 'arm/riscpc' machines, to allow for a new "riscpc" family of keymaps. * Try to have debconf display a note when a boot-time keymap for old packages is found, and the selected behaviour is to not mess with the user's settings. That should be enough for people using their own keymaps (Closes: #94221). * Fixed various typos in debconf templates (Closes: #94516). -- Yann Dirson Thu, 19 Apr 2001 23:50:07 +0200 console-common (0.6) unstable; urgency=high * The "Looking forward to 2.8 kernel" release. * Changed Build-Depends to -Indep, as there are only arch-indep packages here. * Added docbook-to-man to those, now that install-keymap has a manpage (Closes: #93175). * Moved ps2-to-riscpc from /usr/share/debhelper/dh-consoledata/ to /usr/share/console/ (and hence from dh-consoledata to console-common). * When on a RiscPC machine and trying to install a PC (PS/2) keymap, translate it so that it works with the current RiscPC keyboard driver. Hopefully the need for this hack will disappear in the 2.5 kernel series. This was not done in the One True Right Way because it would require far more work and would impact all other archs, which I'd like to avoid. So if this hackish way of doing things actually works, it will stay that way until we don't support 2.4 kernels any more and we'll all happilly forget it afterwards. * Ensure in postinst that we get rid of the old keymap-loading rcS.d scripts, which could produce bad behaviour. This is caused by dpkg bug #59740 (Closes: #93363). * Really have 'install-keymap KERNEL' remove any previously installed keymap (yes, again). -- Yann Dirson Wed, 11 Apr 2001 00:38:14 +0200 console-common (0.5) unstable; urgency=low * Fixed typo in install-keymap "differing" message (Closes: #88640). * Include kmap-to-riscpc script from Richard Atterer; install it as /usr/share/debhelper/dh-consoledata/ps2-to-riscpc. * Removed from source debhelper files that had been probably erroneously generated at some time for dh_consoledata. Even on my box it did not cause "erroneous" owners to get into the debconf cache, so I guess it would be useless to attempt to purge it, bug who knows, the info is here. * Provide a manpage for install-keymaps. -- Yann Dirson Fri, 6 Apr 2001 00:32:20 +0200 console-common (0.4) unstable; urgency=low * Use strict and -w, skeleton of POD doc in dh script. Install manpage. * Use strict in the debconf script as well; changed $keymaps to $::keymaps to cope with this. Conflict with old console-data using $keymaps. * Make dh script insert its necessary postinst snippet. * Use the dh script to build console-common. Added a DH_LCDDIR env var to support this. * Add to substvars ${console:depends}, that should expand to a correct versionned dependency on console-common. To make maintainance easy and less error-prone, this will always require at least the console-common with same version that the dh_consoledata used to build. This may be suboptimal in some cases, but who cares. -- Yann Dirson Mon, 5 Mar 2001 18:36:07 +0100 console-common (0.3) unstable; urgency=medium * Use << comparison instead of <= for Replaces field, so that we don't miss NMUs and local recompiles (Closes: #87942). * Use 0 and 1 instead of undefined FALSE and TRUE keywords (Closes: #88353). * Fix extended description (Closes: #88310). -- Yann Dirson Sun, 4 Mar 2001 12:33:59 +0100 console-common (0.2) unstable; urgency=low * Install /usr/share/console/lists/keymaps/, not /usr/share/console/lists/keymap/. Thanks to Michael Meskes and Gordon Sadler for finding this one (Closes: #88227). * Changed priority for dh-consoledata to "extra". * Added clarifying message to postinst. -- Yann Dirson Fri, 2 Mar 2001 12:14:30 +0100 console-common (0.1) unstable; urgency=low * Initial "Oh, yes, flame me again !" release. * Start with install-keymap from console-tools 1:0.2.3-17. * Really have 'install-keymap KERNEL' remove any previously installed keymap. * Keymap now put in /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz. Location change will allow kbd and console-tools to share as much as they should. Filename changed from "default.kmap" because the latter appears to be too confusing. * Import boot-time keymap from old console-tools/kbd if any. * Start with console-tools' keymaps-lct as /etc/init.d/keymaps; removed hardcoded path to loadkeys. * Start with common.pl, config.in, getkmapchoice.pl.in from console-data 1999.08.29-17. * Use /usr/share/console/lists/keymaps/, instead of .../keymap/. * Exit in error from getkmapchoice if no map was found; now postinsts work slightly better. * Install question templates for fonts, and config script with no keymaps. * getkmapchoice: do not fail on initial install, when no keymaps have been installed/declared. * Changed default policy to "Select keymap from list", as I thought was already done. * install-keymap: if no console-utility is installed, print a warning and do nothing. * keymaps config: support for empty keymaps list so that console-common can configure. * Alcove earned to be copyright holder by providing me with time to work on this package; mentionned this in the copyright file. -- Yann Dirson Mon, 12 Feb 2001 23:44:22 +0100
