debconf (1.0.32) unstable; urgency=low * Fixed a bug in the Stack driver's iterator, needed by FAI. Thanks to Joerg Lehmann for the patch. * Typo and spelling corrections (did not change verbiage to verbage however; I do not intend that connotation). Closes: #131807 * Added --force to dpkg-reconfigure. * Fixed typo in debconf.conf. Closes: #140085 -- Joey Hess Thu, 7 Mar 2002 21:27:18 -0500 debconf (1.0.31) unstable; urgency=low * Versioned conflicts with debconf-tiny, see #137019 * Corrected some wording in the German translation. Closes: #137005 * Removed translated default fields in the Russian template (don't do that, folks). -- Joey Hess Tue, 5 Mar 2002 19:54:40 -0500 debconf (1.0.30) unstable; urgency=low * Matthew Palmer contributed a LDAP backend database for debconf. This will open up all kinds of new possiilities for using debconf in a cluster, etc. It is currently experimental, and will not be used unless you enable it; so there is no chance this new code will impact the freeze. * Wrote debconf-devel(8) man page, which attempts to be a complete reference for developing packages that use debconf. Read it. * Fixed the doc-base name of the debconf tutorial. * Minor change to debconf-mergetemplate man page synopsis. * Refuse to use the dialog frontend if the screen is too small, it'll fall back to the text frontend which will work on screens down to about 2 lines of 20 characters each. Closes: #132972 * Fixed typo, Closes: #134161 * Patch from Denis Barbier to make debconf-getlang work better with ll_LL form languages. Closes: #134307 * Display choices for boolean questions in the editor frontend, Closes: #135078 * Improved the section in the tutorial on translations. Patch from Denis Barbier. Closes: #96836 * Added a new Russian template from Ilgiz Kalmetev, Closes: #135839 -- Joey Hess Tue, 5 Feb 2002 20:37:19 -0500 debconf (1.0.26) unstable; urgency=low * Removed uninitialized value warning in Teletype frontend. Actually, this was a bug that did not let it display only one column on choices when necessary; triggered by quake2-data. * Incuded a short README.Debian for debconf-utils, Closes: #129541 * Made the README point to all the main docs for users and developers. Closes: #129545 * Deregister SIGPIPE handler after confmodule finishes, so it is not called after the object is gone. Closes: #129463 * Chomp whitespace at the end of field continuation lines; this fixes a bug that caused some indented lines to be accidentially wrapped up to the previous line. * Stop using funky grave quotes in this package's templates. * Updated Spanish template. Closes: #128838 * Updated Catalan. * Added German po file, updated templates. * Killed the following overly-outdated translated templates: pl, ru, zh_CN, zh_TW, nl, ja, it. * fi and gl have one fuzzy translation each, and all the rest are fine. * Corrected incorrect indents in a number of translated templates, sigh. * debconf(8) tweak, Closes: #130348 -- Joey Hess Fri, 11 Jan 2002 23:30:25 -0500 debconf (1.0.25) unstable; urgency=medium * The "bite the bullet" release. * Enhanced fix_db.pl to detect and deal with every debconf db corruption scenario that has been reported to me. Run it on upgrade from versions prior to this one. I suspect that all instances of inconsistent and corrupt debconf db's are due to past bugs in debconf and especially the transition from the crufty old data::dumper db, and the "fix" for the missing template problem, plus possibly some unclean shutdown problems. So fix them all now, and either the problems go away for good or I prove my theories wrong if they pop back up later. * Closes: #128707, #128265, #99786 -- Joey Hess Fri, 11 Jan 2002 13:25:06 -0500 See /usr/share/doc/debconf-doc/changelog.gz for the remainder of this changelog.
