* Pass proper --host/--build args to ./configure, to support
  cross-building. Closes: #465292.
* clean up a number of unused variables in debian/rules; maybe someday
  we'll get this package to converge on debhelper 7... :)
* Fix the doc-base section for libfreetype6-dev. Closes: #315845.
* Remove one final reference to /usr/X11R6 in debian/rules.
* Drop incorrect Replaces: freetype0, freetype1
* Add debian/README.source, documenting the madness that is this source
  package.
* Standards-Version to 3.8.0.
* Fix multiple integer overflows leading to arbitrary code execution
  or DoS (CVE-2009-0946; Closes: #524925). Thanks to Nico Golde for the
  NMU.

No-change rebuild to fix lpia shared library dependencies.

* debian/patches-ft2demos/compiler-hardening-fixes.patch: always check the
  return value of fread(), to appease hardened compilers such as what's
  used in Ubuntu by default. Set a good example, even if these demos
  shouldn't be security-sensitive! Also, along the way catch and fix a
  small memory leak on error. :)
* debian/patches-freetype/proper-armel-asm-declaration.patch: use __asm__
  for declaring assembly instead of asm, fixing a build failure on armel.

20. By Steve Langasek on 2009-03-13

* Drop spurious Suggests: on libfreetype6-dev. Closes: #363937.
* debian/patches-freetype/enable-subpixel-rendering.patch: enable subpixel
  rendering features, used by libcairo and xft to provide LCD colour
  filtering. This is considered no more or less evil than the bytecode
  interpreter which we also enable.
* Move debian/libfreetype6.copyright to debian/copyright, and selectively
  install it to the single binary package in debian/rules; the same
  copyright file is used for all the binaries anyway via symlinks, so
  there's no reason it shouldn't ship as debian/copyright.
  Closes: #381228.
* Clip redundant LICENSE.TXT and GPL.TXT files from the
  libfreetype6-dev package. Closes: #459802.

16. By Scott James Remnant (Canonical) on 2007-09-20

* debian/patches-freetype/enable-subpixel-rendering.patch:
  - Restore patch that enables subpixel rendering features, now that
    libcairo and xft provide the ability for the specific lcd filter
    to be changed.

15. By Matthew Garrett <email address hidden> on 2007-09-20

* debian/patches-freetype/series
 - Fix the removal of enable-subpixel-rendering.patch
