8. By Axel Beckert on 2015-10-02

* Version 1.4 (new backwards-compatible features, plus bugfixes)

[ Elmar S. Heeb ]
* use explicit path for perl

[ Axel Beckert ]
* Fix project URL in configure.ac
* aptitude-robot-session:
  + Fix hanging aptitude-robot-session processes with zombie dpkg
    children by reintroducing "< /dev/null" and dropping "yes '' |"
    again. The main reason why the latter was necessary was only present
    in apt 1.0.9.4. (See #773061 and #773215)
  + Abort if APT was not able to update from all APT repositories.
* aptitude-robot-session.pod:
  + Add warning to aptitude-robot-session.pod about implications of
    using file size limits.
  + Remove executable bit, unneeded.
* xymon-report:
  + yellow alert if aptitude couldn't fulfil all requests
  + red alert if aptitude's exit code is not zero
* xymon-report and mail-log-on-error:
  + Catch cases where mktemp fails. Could cause endless running
    mail-log-on-error/xymon-report process before.
  + General quoting fixes for potentially empty variables.
* Rename debian/aptitude-robot.* to debian/* for consistency.
* debian/{cron.daily,default}: New configuration variable to suppress
  cron mails if exit code is not equal zero.
* Link changelog.gz to changelog.Debian.gz as the latter is also the
  upstream changelog. (Fixes lintian warning no-upstream-changelog.)
* Bump debhelper compatibility to 9 as recommended.
  + Update versioned build-dependency on debhelper accordingly.
* Suggest needrestart-session, mailx and xymon-client and mention them
  in the README, too.
* Declare compliance with Policy 3.9.6 (no further changes needed)

[ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
* Make upstart job to be long running, for integration with startpar
  bridge.

7. By Elmar S. Heeb on 2014-05-07

[ Axel Beckert ]
* Use resolver hints to make unexpected removals even more unlikely
  during automatic conflict resolution.
* Suggest needrestart and apt-listbugs and mention them in the README

[ Elmar S. Heeb ]
* use $(...) notation instead of backticks
* new version 1.3.4

6. By Elmar S. Heeb on 2013-12-04

[ Axel Beckert ]
* Add some autotools-generated files to diff-ignore to support building
  from git and from tar balls as offered for download by GitHub.

[ Elmar S. Heeb ]
* DEBIAN_PRIORITY for automatic runs should be critical, not low
* new version 1.3.3

5. By Elmar S. Heeb on 2013-11-18

* added upstart support
* bump version to 1.3.2

4. By Elmar S. Heeb on 2013-05-27

[ Elmar S. Heeb ]
* remove unwanted quoting in option.d example file
* use Mouse explicitly and not Any::Moose (Closes: #720670)

[ Axel Beckert ]
* updated debian/watch file based on Bart Marten's suggestion
* Fix typo in previous changelog entry

* bump version to 1.2.16

3. By Elmar S. Heeb on 2013-05-24

[ Axel Beckert ]
* Switch from the single file /etc/aptitude-robot/options to a run-parts
  based directory at /etc/aptitude-robot/options.d/.
* Ship /etc/aptitude-robot/options.d/10-remove-level-maximum containing
  "-o 'Aptitude::ProblemResolver::Remove-Level=maximum'" as a safe-guard
  against accidentially removing too many packages when resolving
  conflicts automatically.

[ Elmar S. Heeb ]
* abort aptitude-robot-session when another package manager is running
* pass command line arguments from aptitude-robot-session to
  aptitude-robot
* do not start init script on install/upgrade

* bump version to 1.2.14

2. By Elmar S. Heeb on 2013-02-13

Upload to Debian (Closes: #690157)

[ Elmar S. Heeb ]
* do not report packages on hold in mail

[ Axel Beckert ]
* Update lintian override for init.d-script-missing-dependency-on-… to
  please newer lintian versions.
* Add lintian override for init.d-script-does-not-implement-optional-option
* Use dh-autoreconf to (re)create Makefile to be able to build straight
  from git repo, too.
