* Merge with Debian unstable; remaining Ubuntu changes:
  - Drop libwxgtk2.8-dev build dependency. Wx isn't in main, and not
    supposed to. (LP #438365)
  - Drop erlang-wx binary.
  - Drop erlang-wx dependency from -megaco, -common-test, and -reltool, they
    do not really need wx. Also drop it from -debugger; the GUI needs wx,
    but it apparently has CLI bits as well, and is also needed by -megaco,
    so let's keep the package for now.
* Added missing symlinks to /usr/include for a few new header files.
* Fixed generation of ${erlang-base:Depends} and ${erlang-x11:Depends}
  substitution variables.
* Added a fix for a re:compile/2 crash on a long regular expression.
* Changed urgency to medium as the change fixes a security bug.
* Manpages in section 1 are needed even if only arch-dependent packages are
  built. So, re-enabled them.
* Fixed HiPE architecture recognition for powerpc Debian architecture.
* Moved xsltproc and fop to build-depends-indep and do not build
  documentation if only architecture-specific packages are built.
* Refreshed all patches.
* Made Emacs look in man5 and man7 for Erlang manpages and added code
  skeleton files to erlang-mode package.
* New upstream release.
* Moved manpages from incorrect sections 4 and 6 to correct 5 and 7
  (closes: #498492).
* Made manpages regexp in Emacs mode match only 3erl pages in section 3.
* Removed docb_gen script which is no longer needed to build manpages.
* Added erlang-doc package which contains documentation in HTML and PDF
  formats. This package replaces erlang-doc-html package and it's easier
  to synchronize it with the main Erlang packages as it's built from
  a single source package (closes: #558451).
* Removed RPATH from ssl and crypto application binaries as required by
  Debian policy.
* Added libwxgtk2.4-dev and libwxgtk2.6-dev to build conflicts.
* Added a few dpendencies for erlang-dialyzer, erlang-et, erlang-observer
  and erlang-examples packages which now call functions from more modules
  than in 1:13.b.3.
* Added a workaround which disables vfork() for hppa architecture
  (closes: #562218).
* Strictened check for JDK 1.5 adding a call to String(int[], int, int)
  because GCJ 4.4 doesn't implement it and OpenJDK isn't available for all
  architectures.
* Fixed erlang-manpages package section.
* Made erlang-depends add only substvars which are requested in
  debian/control file. This minimizes number of warnings from dh_gencontrol.
  Also, improved descriptions of the functions in erlang-depends escript.
* Added erlang-erl-docgen package to erlang-nox dependencies.
* Made dummy packages erlang-nox and erlang-x11 architecture all.
* Cleaned up working with custom substitution variables in debian/rules.
* Reorganized debian/rules to ensure that manpages arent built twice, and
  aren't built at all if only architecture-dependent packages are requested.
* Fixed project links in README.Debian.
* Added a new package erlang-jinterface which provides tools for
  communication of Java programs with Erlang processes. This adds build
  depandency on default-jdk and as a result enables Java module for IDL
  compiler.
* Bumped standards version to 3.8.4.

CVE-2008-2371: outer level option with alternatives caused crash.
(LP: #535090).

* Merge with Debian testing; remaining Ubuntu changes:
  - Drop libwxgtk2.8-dev build dependency. Wx isn't in main, and not
    supposed to. (LP #438365)
  - Drop erlang-wx binary.
  - Drop erlang-wx dependency from -megaco, -common-test, and -reltool, they
    do not really need wx. Also drop it from -debugger; the GUI needs wx,
    but it apparently has CLI bits as well, and is also needed by -megaco,
    so let's keep the package for now.
* Fixed dialyzer(1) manpage which was placed into section 3 and conflicted
  with dialyzer(3erl).
* New upstream release (it adds a new binary package erlang-erl-docgen).
* Refreshed patches, removed most of emacs.patch which is applied upstream.
* Linked run_test binary from erlang-common-test package to /usr/bin.
* Fixed VCS headers in debian/control.
* Moved from prebuilt manpages to generated from sources. This adds
  erlang-manpages binary package and xsltproc build dependency.

26. By Martin Pitt on 2009-12-07

* build-options.patch: Fix to apply to current version.
* debian/patches/series: Do what I meant, and enable build-options.patch
  instead.

25. By Martin Pitt on 2009-12-07

debian/patches/series: Enable native.patch again, to get stripped beam
files and reduce the package size again. (LP: #493278)

22. By Sergei Golovan <email address hidden> on 2009-06-17

* Updated manpages for section 1.
* Applied patch by James Henstridge, which sets ERL_COMPILE_FLAGS based on
  DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS. By default slim runtime without debug info is built.
  To remove slim option set DEB_BUILD_OPTION to 'nostrip', to add debug_info
  compiler option set DEB_BUILD_OPTION to 'debug'. Or it may be set to
  'nostrip,debug' to return to the previous level ob debug information
  (closes: #532757).
* Added a few words about building Erlang packages with debug info included
  to README.Debian.

21. By Sergei Golovan <email address hidden> on 2009-06-11

* New upstream release.
* Removed unnecessary dependency of erlang-os-mon on erlang-observer and
  erlang-tools and added missing dependency of erlang-nox on erlang-os-mon
  (closes: #529512).
* Removed a patch to eunit application because the bug was fixed upstream.

20. By Sergei Golovan <email address hidden> on 2009-05-07

* Removed another bunch of non-free RFCs from original tarball
  (closes: #527053).
* Fixed build-dependencies list by adding missing comma. This requires
  libsctp-dev again. Also, added libsctp1 dependency to erlang-base and
  erlang-base-hipe packages because the shared library is loaded via
  dlopen now and cannot be added using dh_slibdeps (closes: #526682).
* Weakened dependency of erlang-webtool on erlang-observer to recommends
  to avoid circular dependencies (closes: #526627).
* Added solaris-i386 to HiPE enabled architectures.
* Made script sources in /usr/lib/erlang/erts-*/bin directory executable,
  which is more convenient if a user wants to create a target Erlang system.
* Shortened extended description line for erlang-dev package to make it
  fit 80x25 terminals.
