-
* Update to new upstream version. (Closes: #193695)
+ Fixes problem where certain window types (often transient dialogs) cause
VTWM to restart itself. (Closes: #286951)
+ The "VirtualDesktopFont" configuration variable is now documented under
that name, instead of the incorrect "VirtualFont". (Closes: #201738)
* Resync Debian patches with new version.
+ Fix for gram.y is now upstream.
+ Replace VTWMLIBDIR symbol with VTWMCONFDIR since all we use it for is
installation of the configuration file. Create a new TWMCONFDIR symbol,
which we use to locate twm's configration file. If Imake defines
EtcX11Directory, use a subdirectory of ETCX11DIR for vtwm's
configuration; otherwise, use a subdirectory of LIBDIR. (This is an
improved -- and hopefully upstream-tolerable -- version of a patch
previously applied.)
* Update copyright information:
+ Update URL to new source version and hosting location.
+ Update list of copyright holders, authors and contributors based on
current version of manual page.
+ Undocument Martin "Joey" Schulze as a Debian package author, as he
wasn't responsible for *this* packaging (which has been done at least 3
times from scratch in the past 10 years, most recently by me).
Acknowledge Joey's previous packaging.
+ Update my copyright notice. I have never signed a written instrument
assigning my copyright in the packaging desiderata to Software in the
Public Interest, Inc., so it's probably misleading to claim the
copyright belongs to them.
* Rewrite package's extended description based on current information from
upstream.
* Update build-dependencies to depend on real X protocol header and library
development packages, rather than xlibs-dev, which is a dummy package
nowadays.
* Update menu item quoting functions in vtwm's menu-method file to align
them with twm's, which are a little easier to understand.
* Add support for launching other window managers to menu-method file, using
VTWM's f.startwm function. Add 10 points to vtwm command's alternatives
priority per Debian Policy section 11.8.4. (Closes: #194158)
* Re-case VTWM's name in its menu entry per upstream usage.
* Use a debian/compat file instead of the DH_COMPAT variable in the rules
file, per debhelper(7).
* Add "FixManagedVirtualGeometries" and "FixTransientVi rtualGeometries " to
system.vtwmrc- menu file per suggestion from Neil Stewart; this should fix
various problems with placement of transient and pop-up dialog windows.
(Closes: #194110, #225945)
* Grab fix to twm's parse.c from XFree86 CVS (revision 1.9, 2001/04/23) that
fixes line numbers in error messages about the vtwmrc file from being
double their correct value. (Closes: #201741)
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.6.1; no changes necessary.
* Quote strings in menu file, per Lintian.
* Tidy up the manual page in several respects:
+ Add copyright notice to the manual page itself, copied from the
copyright information on twm's source files in X11R4, from which VTWM
was forked.
+ Fix up the .TH directive:
- Downcase the command name (rendering a command's name in full caps is
a presentation decision).
- Change the date to reflect my modifications.
- Indicate the source as "VTWM 5.4.6b", not "X11R4-6", since this
manual page is independently maintained by the VTWM hackers.
+ Fix up the NAME section:
- Remove spurious paragraph break at the beginning of the section.
- Use \- instead of - to separate the manpage's name and summary and so
that mkwhatis is less easily confused. (See man(7).)
+ Rename the SYNTAX section to SYNOPSIS. (See man(7).)
+ Use an macros for type face selection in the SYNOPSIS section.
+ Use \- instead of - in the SYNOPSIS section to notate literal dashes
that the user will type (e.g., when specifying command-line options).
+ Rename the SIGNALS section to ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS (after SUSv3
manpages).
+ Rename the ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES section to ENVIRONMENT. (See
man(7).)
+ Use "an" typeface macros instead of roff \f escapes for font changes
where practical in the ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS, BUGS, FILES,
ENVIRONMENT, COPYRIGHT, and SEE ALSO sections.
+ Quote multi-word arguments to the .SH macro in the ASYNCHRONOUS
EVENTS and AUTHORS AND CONTRIBUTORS sections.
+ Use \(oq and \(cq named characters instead of literal double-quotes
in the BUGS section.
+ Italicize signal names in the ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS section.
+ Put a newline at the ends of sentences per the GNU Roff info
documentation.
+ Move the SEE ALSO section to the end of the page.
+ Update COPYRIGHT section based on the information I gathered from
trawling the source tree. - 2. By Branden Robinson <email address hidden>

debian/conffiles: mark /etc/menu-
methods/ vtwm as a conffile
(Closes: #132203)
