Closes: #64605 -- Joey Hess Wed, 24 May 2000 12:42:51 -0700 dpkg-repack (1.2) unstable; urgency=low * Removed more historical cautions in the man page. * Dragged screaming and kicking into the world of perl5. Now -w and use strict safe; lots of cleanups. Still needs a bit of a rewrite. * Can repack multiple packages in sequence now. -- Joey Hess Fri, 17 Dec 1999 19:00:07 -0800 dpkg-repack (1.1) unstable; urgency=low * Build deps. -- Joey Hess Sat, 4 Dec 1999 00:52:53 -0800 dpkg-repack (1.0) unstable; urgency=low * FHS * Integrated into my cvs build system. * It occurs to me that this is a pretty stable package, so I bumped the version number to 1.0. -- Joey Hess Fri, 10 Sep 1999 21:19:21 -0700 dpkg-repack (0.25) unstable; urgency=low * Depend on gcc, because it uses dpkg --build which brain-deadly requires dpkg be present (and of course dpkg doesn't depend on gcc..) (Closes: #40985) -- Joey Hess Thu, 8 Jul 1999 11:20:26 -0700 dpkg-repack (0.24) unstable; urgency=low * Now depends on perl5 | perl, I'll kill the | perl bit later on, but it seems to make sense for the transition. -- Joey Hess Sun, 4 Jul 1999 10:57:57 -0700 dpkg-repack (0.23) unstable; urgency=low * Quote another regexp (#39955). -- Joey Hess Tue, 22 Jun 1999 09:35:46 -0700 dpkg-repack (0.22) unstable; urgency=low * Added note to an error message that fakeroot may be used. -- Joey Hess Thu, 8 Apr 1999 21:16:22 -0700 dpkg-repack (0.21) unstable; urgency=low * Use --print-installation-architecture instead of --print-architecture (#31738) * Link to new homepage in the README. -- Joey Hess Mon, 11 Jan 1999 13:04:49 -0800 dpkg-repack (0.20) unstable; urgency=low * Changed how I disable locales when running dpkg -l - now set LC_ALL=C. -- Joey Hess Wed, 17 Jun 1998 12:27:16 -0700 dpkg-repack (0.19) unstable; urgency=low * Version 0.16 broke repacking packages that had diverted files in them, because of how dpkg -L shows that info. (#23339). It turns out that older versions of dpkg-repack packed up not the original file, but the file that was diverted to replace it. I've decided that is incorrect behavior, and changed it so if there is a diversion, the original file is placed in the repacked package. -- Joey Hess Sat, 13 Jun 1998 17:35:22 -0700 dpkg-repack (0.18) unstable; urgency=low * Removed some debugging output I accidentially put in the last version. * Workes now for packages that have filenames with spaces in them (like maelstrom). * Checged the descripton to remove the "attempts to". It should always work. (heh) -- Joey Hess Thu, 28 May 1998 06:14:27 -0400 dpkg-repack (0.17) unstable; urgency=low * Uses dpkg for querying the status file and getting the file list, rather than doing it by hand. However, dpkg-repack still accesses the dpkg database directly, becuase it copies maintainer scripts, etc, from there. There is no way to get that information via dpkg. * Fixed bug #22603 - a failure when eg. /usr is a symlink. . If the package contains a file, that locally looks like a symlink pointing to a directory that is not in the package, then change it to a real directory in the repacked package. This assummes that in this case, the symlink was a local change (eg, /usr is a symlink). . However, if the directory in question contains no files in the filelist for this package, don't do that, just preserve the symlink in the repacked package. This handles the case where a package contains a symlink to a directory elsewhere. -- Joey Hess Tue, 26 May 1998 07:02:14 -0400 dpkg-repack (0.16) frozen unstable; urgency=low * Handle directories that are symlinks properly (#20280). -- Joey Hess Thu, 26 Mar 1998 22:30:35 -0800 dpkg-repack (0.15) unstable; urgency=low * Fixed minor lintian errors. -- Joey Hess Sat, 14 Mar 1998 20:00:09 -0800 dpkg-repack (0.14) unstable; urgency=low * Updated fsf address. -- Joey Hess Mon, 9 Feb 1998 12:54:00 -0800 dpkg-repack (0.13) unstable; urgency=low * Depend on perl 5.004 or greater (For Getopt::Long). -- Joey Hess Sat, 17 Jan 1998 02:12:58 -0500 dpkg-repack (0.12) unstable; urgency=low * Added option to make it build a debian package of a different architecture than the default.

This is the same as alien works, and I made this change mainly so you can repack some large package on a spare partition when it won't fit on the partition that contains /tmp. * Added --root= option, to make it operate on the filesystem rooted at . * Remove temporary directory when done. * Man page fixes. * Added proper error trapping and handling. * Added progress messages. * Routine update of debian/rules: Run dpkg-gencontrol after debstd, and delete substvars during clean. -- Joey Hess Thu, 26 Jun 1997 18:54:40 -0400 dpkg-repack (0.6) experimental; urgency=low * Fixed problem with packaging dangling symlinks. * Fixed permissions files when creating directories. * Add Architecture: field to the control file. * Removed some debugging info that was left in by mistake. * Routine update of debian/rules: Run dpkg-gencontrol after debstd, and delete substvars during clean. -- Joey Hess Sun, 6 Apr 1997 15:11:25 -0400 dpkg-repack (0.5) experimental; urgency=high * Oops! This package was not meant to be in unstable. It's supposed to be in experimental. -- Joey Hess Thu, 20 Mar 1997 01:59:04 -0500 dpkg-repack (0.4) unstable; urgency=low * Use /var/lib/dpkg/status, not /var/lib/dpkg/available. * Routine update of debian/rules: Clean up junk files in subdirs. -- Joey Hess Mon, 17 Mar 1997 16:39:05 -0500 dpkg-repack (0.3) unstable; urgency=low * New author/maintainer email address. -- Joey Hess Tue, 24 Dec 1996 15:30:21 -0500 dpkg-repack (0.2) experimental; urgency=low * Fixed bug where it did not install shlibs and other control files. * Routine update of debian/rules (now uses debmake). * Fixed problem with perl 5.003.07. -- Joey Hess Wed, 6 Nov 1996 22:28:20 -0500 dpkg-repack (0.1) experimental; urgency=low * First release. -- Joey Hess Fri, 18 Oct 1996 00:07:24 -0400
