ncurses 6.0+20151024-2ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

ncurses (6.0+20151024-2ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Resynchronise with Debian.  Remaining changes:
    - Add a simple autopkgtest to the package.
    - Build x32 packages.

ncurses (6.0+20151024-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Drop the static debug libraries (Closes: #803482).
  * Remove the dependency of the -dbg packages on their -dev counterparts,
    let them depend on the libraries instead.
  * Add a dependency on ncurses-bin (>= 6.0+20151017) to libtinfo-dev,
    making piuparts happy (Closes: #803563).
  * Add an empty /usr/share/terminfo to ncurses-base to work around
    FTBFS in jed and slrn (see #804083, #804084).
  * Update Vcs-Browser field to use cgit and https.

ncurses (6.0+20151024-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream patchlevel.
    - Improve configure check for setting WILDCARD_SYMS variable; on ppc64
      the variable is in the Data section rather than Text (patch by Michel
      Normand, Closes: #802810).

ncurses (6.0+20151017-1) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Sven Joachim ]
  * New upstream patchlevel.
    - Improve check for working poll() by using posix_openpt() as a
      fallback in case there is no valid terminal on the standard input
      (Closes: #676461).
    - Modify ncurses/Makefile.in to sort keys.list in POSIX locale
      (Closes: #801864).
  * Update symbols files for new symbol _nc_write_object.
  * Bump build dependencies on debhelper (>= 9.20141010) and
    dpkg-dev (>= 1.17.14) for build profiles support.
  * Update rxvt-unicode terminfo description from upstream CVS Rev 1.35
    (Closes: #801709).
  * Move the ncurses{w,}5-config scripts to their respective -dev
    packages again (Closes: #745479).

  [ Johannes Schauer ]
  * Support the nobiarch build profile for avoiding multilib. (Closes: #737946)

ncurses (6.0+20150810-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release.
    - Fix comparison against "/usr/include" in misc/gen-pkgconfig.in
      (Closes: #790548).
  * Configure with "--with-abi-version=5", upstream defaults to abi 6 now.
  * Configure with "--with-versioned-syms" (Closes: #788610).
    - Bump minimal versions of all symbols as well as shlibs to 6.
  * After building the wide library, install it into a temporary
    scratchdir so that test/configure can find the necessary auxiliary
    files (see #786436).
  * Drop the libncursesw5-dev build-dependency.
