* New upstream release
  - incompatible change: library users must assign something to
    gfshare_fill_rand
  - new SONAME
  - no transition is needed, because nothing else in Debian depends on it
* Vcs-Git: use cgit and https
* gbp.conf: use non-numbered patches
* gbp.conf: do not configure tarball or export directory, those are
  more appropriate for ~/.gbp.conf
* Add some simple autopkgtest tests
* Make libgfshare-dbg Multi-Arch: same
* Standards-Version: 3.9.6 (no changes required)

5. By Simon McVittie on 2009-11-19

* debian/patches/100[1-4]*.patch: don't produce broken share number 000 from
  gfsplit, don't allow the library to produce it either, make gfcombine
  fail more usefully if one is used, and explain how to recover
  (Closes: #556939)
* debian/NEWS: explain how to recover from foo.000 shares
* Build-depend on autotools-dev to get updated config.{guess,sub}, to be
  nice to avr32 porters
* Remove duplicate Priority field from control
* Run basic tests during the build
* Standards-Version: 3.8.3
  - move -dbg package to debug section

4. By Simon McVittie on 2008-12-10

* debian/patches/0043-abi.patch, part of upstream bzr r43: don't export
  symbols called "exps" and "logs" (and also don't generate bits of table
  that we're not going to use)
* Add a symbols file for libgfshare1
* Standards-Version: 3.8.0
  - add README.source
* Add ${misc:Depends} throughout, since we use debhelper
* Change Vcs-Bzr to reflect that the packaging is now in collab-maint on
  Alioth (co-maintainers welcome)
* Use my debian.org address

3. By Simon McVittie on 2007-11-25

* Initial release in Debian. (Closes: #451355)
* debian/patches/0042-allow-2of2.patch, upstream bzr r42:
  Allow degenerate case (2-of-2 share) for least astonishment
* debian/patches/0043-devurandom.patch, part of upstream bzr r43:
  In gfsplit, use /dev/urandom rather than rand() for randomness, for
  better cryptographic safety
* debian/patches/0044-fallback.patch, upstream bzr r44: Fall back from
  /dev/urandom to rand(), with a warning, if necessary

* Packaged from scratch, but should be basically compatible with the
  version in Ubuntu. Changes relative to Ubuntu, for information:
  - the above patches from upstream bzr
  - does not have Soren Hansen's patch to allow gfcombine to output to
    stdout (not yet upstream)
  - better package descriptions (IMO)
  - machine-readable debian/copyright file with explicit licensing for
    packaging (the same as the source)
  - libgfshare-dev does not depend on libc6-dev, to be installable on
    alpha, ia64 etc.
  - libgfshare(5) is in libgfshare-dev rather than libgfshare1 (so the
    former Replaces: Ubuntu versions of the latter)
  - libgfshare-dev is in Section: libdevel
  - libgfshare-dbg added
  - debian/watch added
