to GFDL 1.3, missed in the previous upload. - 5. By Russ Allbery
-
* New maintainer with the permission of the previous maintainer.
* New upstream release. (Closes: #447861)
- info autoconf now goes to the top of the manual. (Closes: #401648)
- The requirement of special handling of $@ in configure.ac scripts is
now documented. (Closes: #372179)
- AC_PATH_XTRA works differently in current versions of Autoconf and
the documentation now correctly reflects that. (Closes: #298504)
- The AC_COMPILE_IFELSE synopsis uses more accurate argument names.
(Closes: #325861)
- autoheader AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED limitations with non-literal symbols
are now documented. (Closes: #179086)
* Build PDF and PostScript versions of the Autoconf manual in addition
to info and HTML, and add the required build dependencies.
* Depend on gnu-standards and symlink the standards PDF and HTML files
so that document links work properly. (Closes: #376838)
* Install upstream AUTHORS and THANKS files.
* Update the README.Debian to warn that this manual may not always match
the separately-maintained autoconf package and to strengthen the
pointer to the autotools-dev documentation.
* Rewrite the doc-base configuration file.
- Change the document ID to just autoconf.
- Expand the abstract based on the upstream manual introduction.
- Update the doc-base section.
- Add the info, PDF, and PostScript formats.
* Rewrite the long package description and remove details that are more
appropriate for the main autoconf package.
* Add a Homepage control field.
* Add Vcs-Git and Vcs-Browser control fields.
* Remove suggest of autobook, which is no longer in Debian.
* Remove suggest of autoconf and autoconf-archive. These packages are
related but don't add additional functionality to the documentation
and hence in my opinion don't qualify for Suggests.
* Remove ancient Conflicts.
* Move the source package into the same section as the binary package
and remove the redundant Section and Priority fields from the binary
package.
* Add a watch file.
* Update debhelper compatibility level to V7.
- Use debhelper rule minimization with override targets.
- Use debian/info instead of debian/install to install the info files,
avoiding the need to pass arguments to dh_installinfo.
* Rewrite debian/copyright to use the proposed new format.
- Add an explicit (public domain) license for the packaging.
- Add the required disclaimer for why this package is in non-free.
* Update standards version to 3.8.1 (no changes required). - 4. By Scott James Remnant (Canonical)
-
Update to Autoconf 2.61, which is the version we actually ship.
Dropped the bits of the diff that didn't actually matter, given this
just generates autoconf-doc. - 3. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh
-
* Add doc-base file (closes: #296404)
* Is there anyone else interested into taking care of this GFDL-ridden
non-free package, please? - 2. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh
-
* Conflict with old cruft in some people's systems (closes: #295899)
* Wasn't someone else going to maintain this package because I
overstepped an ITP or something? Well, please do...
