Package: libgpmg1
Version: 1.19.6-12.1
Severity: important
libgpm contains an optional function Gpm_Wgetch() which prevents using
ncurses' GPM support, adds spurious runtime dependencies for ncurses
from unrelated applications such as jed. It does not appear to be used
by any Debian package (very few programs attempt to use it, and those
that do, make it optional or simply do not work properly).

Changes:

.
[ Peter Samuelson ]
* Added German debconf translation. (Closes: #278989)
Thanks to Jens Nachtigall <nachtigall@web.de>.
* Use weak symbols to link libgpm without curses without losing
functionality. While we're at it, get rid of the build-dep as well.
(Closes: #274673)
* Write a gpm.conf(5) manpage. (Closes: #288606)
* gpm.config: mark debconf questions as 'seen' if gpm.conf already
exists. (Closes: #289049)
* debian/scripts/{lib,source.unpack}: tweak to make them work in the
presence of .svn directories. Obviously not for releases, but very
useful for test builds.
* debian/gpm.init: hack for kernel 2.6 asynchronous module loading.
A hotplug script would be the right solution, but that's a major
headache, not least because we can't rely on hotplug being functional.
(Closes: #298197)
* debian/rules: add a 'checkpo' target. Thanks Alexis Sukrieh.
* debian/gpm.config, debian/gpm.templates: remove the "remember the
restart setting?" question. I honestly don't know what we were
thinking. "Of course remember the setting, otherwise I can run
dpkg-reconfigure on it!" (See #289165 - but this doesn't close it.)
.
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Fixed warnings and escaped an hyphen on gpm.conf(5) manpage.
* Enabled header on gpmconfig(8).
* Added gpm-types(7). (Closes: #284160)
* Added Catalan debconf translation.
* Added missing ending quotes in the embedded dbs.
* Added devfs support to gpm_has_mouse_control. (Closes: #139630)
* debian/copyright:
- Added the Subversion repo URL used for the package.
- Remove Joshua Kwan from the Team list as he left some time ago.
* Use debconf-updatepo in debian/rules (checkpo) instead of msgmerge
and fix output format.
