* debian/postinst, debian/postrm: invoke ldconfig for configure and
  remove respectively. Closes: #364502
* debian/rules (binary-libgdbm): install them.

* 05_handle-short-read.dpatch: new patch for Steve Langasek to make gdbm
  handle read(2) returning less data than we asked for. Closes: #274417

* 03_autoreconf.dpatch: updated to support newer architectures. Closes:
  #258175, #218400

* Rebuild with modern glibc. Closes: #321723

* Following is based on a patch from NIIBE Yutaka <email address hidden> to
  support cross building. Closes: #283065
 * debian/rules (build): pass --host to configure if cross compiling.
 * debian/rules (binary-libgdbm): invoke 'make install' with a correct
   INSTALL_ROOT instead of installing the shared libraries byhand. We
   have to clean up afterwards (i.e. remove stuff that should be in
   libgdbm-dev, fix the permissions and strip the libraries), but doing
   so allows us to...
 * debian/control (Build-Depends): drop chrpath.

* debian/control (Standards-Version): update to 3.6.2.2.
* debian/copyright: update FSF address and copyright years.
* debian/rules: likewise.

* debian/rules: trivial cleanups and consistency, e.g. $$() in place of
  ``, don't use - prefix with rm -f, split long lines, etc.

* 06_manpage-cleanup: new patch. Fixes section in TH and
  hyphen-used-as-minus warnings as noticed by lintian.

* 02_zero-headers.dpatch: initalize more header memory, thanks to a
  patch from Colin Watson <email address hidden>. Closes: #208927
* debian/control (Standards-Version): bump to 3.6.1.0.

* No 1.8 yet because a) the soname has changed, making packaging it less
  trivial, b) the upstream changes are not hugely important and c) 1.8
  appears after 5 years of upstream inactivity and has since been
  followed by another 18 months of upstream inactivity despite some
  trivial and annoying build bugs in 1.8 which must hit almost everyone
  who tries to build it from source.

* Migration warnings are left unchanged as a result of (c) above.

* Drop support for libc5. rules and control files updated and
  libc[56]-? suffix removed from maintainer script names. Closes:
  bug#54401.
* debian/copyright: update location of system copy of GPL. Remove
  references to Linux.
* debian/postinst: create /usr/doc/libgdbmg1 symlink.
* debian/postinst.dev: likewise.
* debian/prerm: remove /usr/doc/libgdbmg1 symlink.
* debian/prerm.dev: likewise.
* debian/rules (binary-arch): install documentation into
  /usr/share/{doc,man,info} (Closes: bug#80750).
* debian/control (Standards-Version): update to 3.2.1.

* gdbm.texinfo: fix two references to /usr/local/. (Closes: bug#43255)

* Maintainer release. Acknowledge two NMUs. (Closes: bug#41820,
  #41718, #33792)

* debian/control: fix path to MIGRATE file in libgdbmg1-dev's extended
  description. (Closes: bug#41170)
