sysnews (0.9-19) experimental; urgency=medium

  * QA upload.
  * Ran wrap-and-sort.
  * debian/control:
      - Added a Homepage field.
      - Bumped Standards-Version to 4.5.1.
      - Migrated DH level to 13.
      - Re-enabled Vcs fields and pointing to Salsa.
  * debian/copyright:
      - Migrated to 1.0 format.
      - Updated all data.
  * debian/patches/:
      - Added a numeric prefix to all patches.
      - Added the suffix '.patch' to all patches.
      - Added a header to each patch.
      - header-changes: dropped because this patch injects Debian maintainers
        names in upstream source code and modifies upstream licensing from
        GPL-2 to GPL-2+ without a previous contact with the upstream. Also,
        this patch had no practical effect on the final binary.
      - 050_fix-manpage.patch: created to fix a typo in manpage.
  * debian/README.source: removed because this file was providing a deprecated
    information.
  * debian/salsa-ci.yml: added to provide CI tests for Salsa.
  * debian/sysnews.lintian-overrides: renamed to lintian-overrides.
  * debian/tests/control: created to provide trivial CI tests.

    (Closes: #631104)

 -- Ryan Niebur <ryan@debian.org>  Mon, 18 Jun 2012 17:38:30 -0700

sysnews (0.9-16) unstable; urgency=low

  * New maintainer (Closes: #483250)
    - Change Vcs-* headers
  * use quilt
  * switch to dh7
  * split up patches
    - upstream's Makefile already regenerates the man page with the
      NEWSDIR set correctly, so just use the regenerated version
      rather than patching
    - stop patching the Makefile when the changes can happen in
      debian/rules
    - organize the remaining changes
  * fix permissions on executable
  * stop supporting upgrades from potato :p
  * upgrade to latest policy (3.8.0)
    - add README.source
  * leave the debian/dirs, as it is actually needed
  * redo copyright file to be more clear
  * remove unneeded build dependency on dpkg-dev
  * add lintian override for non-standard-dir-perm
  * remove the default WELCOME. There was no easy way to make it comply
    with Debian Policy, and imho it's kinda useless, since most people
    probably remove/change it anyway.

sysnews (0.9-8) unstable; urgency=low

  * Move the news directory from /var/news to /var/lib/sysnews, for better FHS
    compliance (sadly, /var/lib/news was taken already). Updated everything
    to reference the new location, and any directory contents are transferred
    automatically on upgrade, and the old directory removed.
  * Remove any news items on purge. I hope this is not going too far.
  * Make /var/lib/news owned by root.staff, and group writable, this is
    intended to let other non-root staff to post news, and closely parallels
    the permissions used in /usr/local/.
  * Changed references to "Debian Linux" to just "Debian" in WELCOME,
    so I don't have to add the "GNU", and because of the Hurd, of course.
    Also changed the quotes, and shortened the section about info. It's still
    longer than 25 lines; I still need to cut it down somehow.

sysnews (0.9-7) unstable; urgency=low

  * Whoops; the cron job was accidentally renamed from cron.daily/news to
    cron.daily/sysnews, leaving the old file around. I'm not going to
    move it back, but the preinst now renames the old file to
    sysnews.dpkg-old if it exists, so normal dpkg conffile handling takes
    over. Closes: #83389
  * Made the cron job notice if he package is not installed and terminate
    sanely.
