10. By Colin Watson on 2013-05-27

* Fix output formatting when --clearfrom password is >= 12 characters
  (thanks, Steven Van Acker; LP: #894739).
* Remove redundant debian/dirs file.
* Canonicalise Vcs-Bzr and Vcs-Browser URLs.
* Override debian-watch-file-is-missing Lintian message.
* Explicitly set source format to 1.0 for now.
* Policy version 3.9.4: no changes required.

9. By Colin Watson on 2012-03-07

debian/copyright: Note that the upstream source location no longer
exists due to the upstream author's death some years ago (closes:
#660962).

8. By Colin Watson on 2011-09-22

Remove Linux-specific text from the package description, the manual
page, and the copyright file (closes: #642410).

7. By Colin Watson on 2011-05-28

* Policy version 3.8.4: no changes required.
* Add CVE entry to previous changelog stanza.
* Send --help output to stdout, not stderr.

6. By Colin Watson on 2010-02-22

* Imported into a branch on bzr.debian.org; add Vcs-Bzr and Vcs-Browser
  control fields.
* Use OpenSSL's random number generator, seeded with 256 bits of entropy
  from /dev/urandom (closes: #564559).

5. By Colin Watson on 2009-08-14

* Upgrade to debhelper v7.
* Override a Lintian warning about syntax in an old changelog entry; I'm
  not going to rewrite history for this.
* Policy version 3.8.2. No changes required.
* Use /dev/urandom rather than /dev/random, as the latter is overkill for
  this and drains entropy too quickly (thanks, Ralf Hildebrandt; closes:
  #307700).
* Increase default password length range from 6-8 characters to 8-10
  (closes: #23648).

4. By Colin Watson on 2005-08-07

* Open /dev/random with just the :unix layer to avoid draining it in
  4096-byte buffered chunks (closes: #320310). Requires perl 5.8 for
  PerlIO.
* Use dh_installman rather than the deprecated dh_installmanpages.
* Remove SHELL=/bin/bash and other cruft in debian/rules.
* Upgrade to debhelper v4.
* Policy version 3.6.2. No changes required.

3. By Colin Watson on 2003-08-25

* New maintainer (closes: #192660).
* Acknowledge Javier's NMU; thanks!
* makepasswd: Fix --crypt-md5 passwords so that PAM actually accepts them,
  using Crypt::PasswdMD5 (closes: #44788). --crypt-md5 can now be used
  with --repeatpass.
* makepasswd: Document --crypt-md5 in --help output.
* debian/control (Description): Change "on the command line" (--clear) to
  "in a temporary file" (--clearfrom).
* debian/control: Build-depend on debhelper (>= 3.0.18), per the Perl
  policy. Move this from Build-Depends-Indep to Build-Depends since
  Build-Depends-Indep doesn't have to be satisfied during clean.
* debian/rules: Modernize a bit.
* debian/control (Standards-Version): Bump to 3.6.1.

2. By Johnie Ingram <email address hidden> on 1999-09-18

* New upstream version, now possible to pass the cleartext in a file,
  closes: #31059.
* Corrected maintainer address (should be <email address hidden>).
