* SECURITY UPDATE: Stack-based buffer overflow in the separate_word function
  in tokenize.c in Link Grammar 4.1b and possibly other versions, as used in
  AbiWord Link Grammar 4.2.4, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code
  via a long word, as reachable through the separate_sentence function.
* debian/patches/CVE-2007-5395: Added patch according to upstream.
  (See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=255061)
  (LP: #162511)

* Fix stupid bashism in debian/rules (Closes: #376478)
* Return to quilt for patches to more easily manage the changes
  introduced in the last two versions. Next time, I won't remove
  quilt, even when I have no patches.
* Bump standards-version to 3.7.2
* Fix homepage pseudo-field to have 2 spaces at the beginning so p.d.o
  can parse it correctly.

* Get my fix for the sentence length error message correct so it
  doesn't leak memory.
* Import prototype for safe_strdup() to prevent crashes on amd64
  (Closes: #366490) Thanks to Dann Fraizer, and his script on the
  AMD64 buildd.

* Initial release Closes: #337277
* Patches:
 - dictionary-path-references
   Since the dictionaries live in data/en, they don't need to refer to
   en/words as this would really mean data/en/en/words which doesn't
   exist.
 - binary-name
   Named this link-grammar instead of grammar-parse. Partly personal
   preference, and partly because if other kinds of grammar get added
   to Debian, this one shouldn't have the generic name.
 - default-english-dictionary
   Make link-grammar use the english dictionary in data/en as the
   default. (Upstream stored the dictionary in data/en, but told the
   program to refer to the nonexistent one in data/)
 - acinclude_binreloc
   Needed to reautotoolize.
 - reautotoolize
   Reautotoolize to deal with the stuff done in binary-name and
   default-english-dictionary
