mt-st (1.8-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Import missed/forgotten additional fixes from #1059408; I missed that
    bug when preparing 1.8-1, sigh. The delta is not important on
    merged-usr systems, and those should be the only one installing this
    version, but let's cleanup.
  * So belatedly, acknowledging the NMU in 1.7-1.1.

 -- Iustin Pop <iustin@debian.org>  Sun, 02 Mar 2025 22:48:55 +0100

mt-st (1.8-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream minor release.
  * Packaging improvements for adjusting to Trixie policy.

 -- Iustin Pop <iustin@debian.org>  Sun, 09 Feb 2025 22:34:48 +0100

mt-st (1.7-1.1) unstable; urgency=medium
  * Non-maintainer upload.
  * Install all files below /usr, and update references to these files.
    (Closes: #1059408)

 -- Chris Hofstaedtler <zeha@debian.org>  Sun, 24 Dec 2023 20:14:47 +0100

mt-st (1.7-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release fixing a bug triggered by the test suite on
    mips64el, arm64 and s390x, but not on amd64, so was not found until
    the 1.6 upload.

 -- Iustin Pop <iustin@debian.org>  Thu, 20 Apr 2023 23:30:00 +0200

mt-st (1.6-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream minor release, adding a couple of new density codes.
  * Note: upstream release 1.5 was broken, hence skipping it.
  * Migrate the autopkgtest suite to the new upstream test suite.

 -- Iustin Pop <iustin@debian.org>  Thu, 20 Apr 2023 00:46:01 +0200

mt-st (1.4-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Bump debhelper from old 12 to 13.
  * Remove empty maintainer scripts: mt-st (postrm)

  [ Iustin Pop ]
  * Bump standards version. Despite the large diff, this package is simple
    so no changes needed.
  * Stop requiring root for builds.
  * Add a very basic autopkgtest, just to check that binaries exist and
    show the version.

 -- Iustin Pop <iustin@debian.org>  Mon, 23 Jan 2023 14:12:34 +0100

mt-st (1.4-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Debian Janitor ]
  * Bump debhelper from old 11 to 12.
  * Set debhelper-compat version in Build-Depends.
  * Set upstream metadata fields: Bug-Database, Bug-Submit, Repository,
    Repository-Browse.

  [ Iustin Pop ]
  * Re-upload as I missed the janitor changes in the original 1.4-1
    release :((, even after being surprised at the old compat level…

 -- Iustin Pop <iustin@debian.org>  Sun, 30 Aug 2020 23:34:33 +0200

mt-st (1.4-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release (minor fixes and improvements, especially LTO-8
    and LTO-7/M8 density codes).
  * Install the bash completion script available in the new upstream
    version.

 -- Iustin Pop <iustin@debian.org>  Sun, 30 Aug 2020 23:08:21 +0200

mt-st (1.3-2) unstable; urgency=medium

    - Update standards version (trivial changes needed)
    - Bump debhelper compat version

 -- Iustin Pop <iustin@debian.org>  Thu, 25 Oct 2018 21:27:34 +0200

mt-st (1.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release (1.2 and 1.3), most important changes:
    - Many more density codes
    - Improve default tape device handling (check it is actually a
      character device)
    - Add support for Linux 4.6+'s ability to configure the size of tape
      partition #0 (via a negative argument to `mkpartition`)
    - Fix bug in stinit's parsing of the configuration file regarding
      per-mode definitions
    - Various man page updates
  * Update standards version to 3.9.8 (no changes)
  * Remove all current patches, as they were included upstream
  * Restrict architecture to linux-any, since this needs linux headers to
    build and also is only useful on Linux kernels
  * Redo device setting activation, removing the init script and modprobe
    configuration file (see NEWS.Debian) while keeping an improved udev
    rule (Closes: #796629, #775013).
  * Enable full hardening of the package.

 -- Iustin Pop <iustin@debian.org>  Fri, 06 May 2016 01:41:12 +0200

  * Add Homepage control field (Closes: #739693)
  * Add patch to note that erase is a 'full' erase (Closes: #739694)
  * Add man page patch regarding the mtio.h header file (Closes: #739694)
  * Fix description to no longer say it diverts mt-gnu.
    Thanks to Ben Harris for noticing! (Closes: #727112)
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.5 (no changes needed)
  * Improve hardening of the package
  * Source /lib/lsb/init-functions in init script (should make the package
    work better with systemd)

 -- Iustin Pop <iustin@debian.org>  Sat, 19 Jul 2014 15:10:05 +0200

mt-st (1.1-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add ".conf" suffix to modprobe.d snippet. Closes: #518245.

  * Add a remark for mtio.h (taken from glibc) to debian/copyright.

 -- Jan Christoph Nordholz <hesso@pool.math.tu-berlin.de>  Fri, 20 Mar 2009 02:28:53 +0100

mt-st (1.1-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * Document that udev has invalidated both glibc and kernel
    documentation by changing the /dev/tape symlink into a
    directory. Talk about backwards-compatible changes.
    As there's no sensible default left, this is all I can do.
    Closes: #499152.
  * Minor packaging cleanup changes.

 -- Jan Christoph Nordholz <hesso@pool.math.tu-berlin.de>  Sun, 01 Mar 2009 16:36:22 +0100

  * Reformat and clarify copyright file.

 -- Jan Christoph Nordholz <hesso@pool.math.tu-berlin.de>  Fri, 11 Apr 2008 22:47:32 +0200

mt-st (0.9b-5) unstable; urgency=low

  * Introduce dpatch.
  * Fix an off-by-one error when reporting mode numbers. Closes: #437259.
    Thanks to Joerg Sommrey for noticing!
  * Prevent upstream from stripping the binaries. Closes: #437588.
  * Do not ignore errors from 'make clean' (upstream only does one rm -f
    there, so there's nothing to ignore anyway).

 -- Jan Christoph Nordholz <hesso@pool.math.tu-berlin.de>  Mon, 20 Aug 2007 01:12:09 +0200

mt-st (0.9b-4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Fix #include statements to accommodate the linux-kernel-headers /
    linux-libc-dev transition. This closes an FTBFS bug, so raised urgency.
    Closes: #428948. Thanks to Lucas Nussbaum.
  * Add density code for LTO-3 drives. Closes: #429589. Thanks to Mike
    Castleman.

mt-st (0.9b-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * Work around something I believe to be a debhelper issue:
    Fix postrm exit status, closes: #381901, forwarded as #381940.
    Thanks to Eric Lavarde.

 -- Jan Christoph Nordholz <hesso@pool.math.tu-berlin.de>  Sat, 12 Aug 2006 15:01:23 +0200

mt-st (0.9b-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * linux-kernel-headers was meant to be a _build_-dependency. Sorry.
    Adjust dependencies, closes: #378391.
  * Introduce udev rules to augment the list of scripts that may
    be triggered by module load/unload and device insertion;
    thanks to Alex Owen. Closes: #251114.
  * Entrust most of the installation/removal package scripts' content
    to debhelper.
  * Update upstream hostname in debian/copyright in order to match
    upstream's license file.
  * Include a debian/watch file.

 -- Jan Christoph Nordholz <hesso@pool.math.tu-berlin.de>  Mon, 17 Jul 2006 00:58:55 +0200

mt-st (0.9b-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version, closes: #294646.
    * Copy SG 3.x protocol definitions from the (2.6-)kernel scsi/sg.h
      header. The stinit code provides a fallback, so this is safe
      when running on kernels < 2.6.
    * Introduce a new build-dependency on linux-kernel-headers for
      the copied kernel header.
  * Supply modprobe.d/ snippet in analogy to the already existing
    modutils config file. Closes: #251114.
  * Bump debhelper to version 5, clean up package build process.
  * Remove -g from the compiler options.

 -- Jan Christoph Nordholz <hesso@pool.math.tu-berlin.de>  Sun,  9 Jul 2006 02:47:08 +0200

mt-st (0.8-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix short package description (Closes: #374877)
  * Bump up compat level, depend on at least dh 4.0.0
  * Prefer using invoke-rc.d instead of directly calling the init
    script in postinst.
  * Call update-modules only if command exists, otherwise package
    fails to install on module-less kernels (Closes: #271230)
  * Conforms to latest Standards Version

 -- Michael Ablassmeier <abi@debian.org>  Thu,  6 Jul 2006 11:11:04 +0200

mt-st (0.8-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version.
  * Updated copyright to specify both copyrights and licensing terms.

  * Applied a patch from upstream to fix a bug when stinit fails to
    initialize the second of two identical drives.
  * Changed build-depends on debhelper for v 3.0.0 instead of 2.2.0.
  * Removed debian/mt-st.conffiles since debhelper does it for us.

 -- Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org>  Fri, 12 Mar 2004 17:14:20 -0800

mt-st (0.7-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Allow stinit to detect tapes when /dev/tape<n> does not match the st
    driver's idea of tape number <n>. This can happen with a modularized
    st driver that is inserted and removed more than once.

 -- Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org>  Fri, 15 Mar 2002 20:11:47 -0800

mt-st (0.7-1) unstable; urgency=low

 -- Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org>  Mon, 26 Nov 2001 19:34:37 -0800

mt-st (0.6-5) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added debhelper to build-depends; closes: #104631.
  * Upgraded to standards version 3.5.5.0.

 -- Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org>  Tue, 20 Feb 2001 14:38:38 -0800

mt-st (0.6-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Avoid stat()'ing all devices to prevent loading all possible modules,
    we now stat only st* and nst* devices (at the expense of missing some
    device files, but a Debian system ought to have devices named as they
    should...); closes: #85978.

 -- Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org>  Thu, 15 Feb 2001 11:55:43 -0800

mt-st (0.6-1.1) unstable; urgency=low
