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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <wart@softhome.net>  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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 Dnzer.
  * Accept tab at the right spot for Acorn RiscPCs.

 -- Martin Michlmayr <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <algernon@debian.org> for support and testing!  Thanks to
    Brendan O'Dea <bod@debian.org> 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 Dnzer <daenzer@debian.org>.  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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <tbm@cyrius.com>  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 <dirson@debian.org>  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 <dirson@debian.org>  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 <dirson@debian.org>  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 <dirson@debian.org>  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 <dirson@debian.org>  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 <dirson@debian.org>  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.
