73. By Stefano Rivera on 2012-11-06

* Cherry-pick some bug fixes from 0.145:
  - requestsync: We now sync to proposed (LP: #1073060)
  - syncpackage: syncpackage: Don't throw away release pockets, returning
    correct errors when the source and destination match even though the
    destination release pocket doesn't.

72. By Stefano Rivera on 2012-10-29

* Cherry-pick some important improvements from 0.144:
  - The Proposed pocket is now the target for all uploads:
    + syncpackage: Default to <current_series>-proposed.
    + syncpackage, requestsync: Check the Release pocket if we can't find an
      Ubuntu package in the requested pocket. (LP: #1069867)
  - pull-lp-source: Catch errors parsing JSON we got from DDE (LP: #1059848)
  - requestbackport: Explain that backports aren't to fix bugs.
  - sponsor-patch: Don't fall over bugs targetted at the development release
    (LP: #936014)

[ Iain Lane ]
* backportpackage: Fix filenames searched when looking for existing
  .orig.tar.foo files (to determine if we need to upload it again or not).
  (LP: #1007908)
* backportpackage: Unset DEBEMAIL when building source package. Fixes error
  when building backports for packages with no Ubuntu changes.
  (LP: #1007042)

[ Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre ]
* mk-sbuild: use and update messages to suggest using the source:$chroot way
  of referring to source chroots instead of $chroot-source; since the latter
  does not work with btrfs snapshot-based chroots. (LP: #1014669)

[ Lars Düsing ]
* Corrected brackets in man-page for sponsor-patch.

[ Stefano Rivera ]
* pbuilder-dist: Don't try to enable -updates for the current codename
  referring to Debian testing, either (LP: #1011870)
* Correct spelling mistakes in package description, thanks Logan Rosen for
  the patch (Closes: #678245)
* Correct metavar for --mirror in backportpackage (LP: #999727)
* submittodebian: Explitictly UTF-8 encode the bug body (LP: #1005834)
* backportpackage.1: Document --key and --dont-sign (LP: #1007564)
* seeded-in-ubuntu: Catch errors in parsing data, and don't keep unreadable
  data cached (LP: #1008783)
* ubuntutools.archive: Improve error handling around rmadison calls
  (LP: #1010951)
* submittodebian; Unset DEBEMAIL when building source package.
  (LP: #1015066)

[ Benjamin Drung ]
* Add a man page for the reverse-build-depends wrapper script.

70. By Stefano Rivera on 2012-05-28

[ Stefano Rivera ]
* mk-sbuild: Support kmod, when checking for overlayfs availability.
* pbuilder-dist: improve bash_completion for *.dsc files. Thanks Maarten
  Bezemer. (Closes: #670924, LP: #770529)
* check-mir, check-symbols, grep-merges, pbuilder-dist-simple,
  setup-packaging-environment, submittodebian, ubuntu-iso:
  Do enough argument parsing to handle --help (LP: #988009)
* dgetlp: Require a UTF-8 locale, or it'll crash when displaying errors
  (LP: #979117)
* pbuilder-dist: Don't try to enable -updates for Debian testing
  (LP: #993006)
* pbuilder-dist, pull-debian-source, pull-lp-source, requestsync,
  reverse-depends, submittodebian, syncpackage:
  Handle outdated distro-info data. Fall back to sane defaults where
  possible. (Closes: #673957)
* backportpackage: Avoid uploading orig tarballs if they are already present
  in the destination PPA (LP: #691897)
* Allow mk-sbuild to be run by root if a configuration file exists
  (LP: #888736)
* backportpackage: Allow unsigned backports (LP: #992739)
* update-maintainer: Add a function to restore the original maintainer.
  - Update sponsor-patch to use the new API resulting from this change
    (LP: #1002999)
* submittodebian: Revert Ubuntu Maintainer mangling, and re-build the source
  package before diffing. (LP: #902233)

[ Evan Broder ]
* backportpackage: Add -c, --close flag to include a changelog closer.
* backportpackage: Switch to ~ubuntu12.04.1-style version numbers
  instead of ~precise1, to make our version numbers more future-proof.
* backportpackage: Pass -v to debuild with last published version
  number. This matches the way backports have traditionally been
  generated by archive admins.

69. By Stefano Rivera on 2012-04-12

* syncpackage: Log into Launchpad anonymously with --no-lp
  (LP: #979849)

[ Stefano Rivera ]
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3, no changes needed.
* Update machine-readable copyright Format to 1.0.

  - Prompt to delete existing workdirs (LP: #885514)
  - Support a BACKPORTPACKAGE_UPLOAD configuration/enviornment variable
    (LP: #693217)

  - Catch SeriesNotFoundException and display a friendly error (LP: #963888)

[ Daniel Hahler ]
* ubuntutools/archive.py: use ProxyHandler in _download_file.
  This makes use of the system proxy (e.g. http_proxy).
* pbuilder-dist: Do not force default value for `--aptcache` argument
  (LP: #956903)

[ John S Gruber ]
* Don't use --override-config with operations other than update.
  (LP: #409696)

67. By Stefano Rivera on 2012-02-15

[ Stefano Rivera ]
* syncpackage, backportpackage, sponsor-patch: Use -nc when building source
  packages. Avoids needing build-deps on the build machine.
* sponsor-patch:
  - Determine the task from the UDD branch.
  - Support syncs of new packages.
  - Support syncs from a non-default series (LP: #931644)
  - Check for dependencies that the package doesn't Depend on. Recommend
    dput, lintian, patch, quilt. (LP: #846385)
* Re-add dgetlp. Still needed for downloading source packages from +queue.
  (LP: #919805)
* pbuilder-dist:
  - Export DISTRIBUTION and ARCHITECTURE as well as DIST and ARCH. Thanks
    Alessio Treglia. (Closes: #659060, LP: #423609)
  - Pass DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS through (LP: #685786)
* reverse-depends: Now that Debian is supported server-side:
  - Convert Debian release aliases to codenames.
  - Default to the devel release of the vendor distribution.
  - Provide transitional reverse-build-depends wrapper to help users
    discover reverse-depends. (LP: #910420)
* backportpackage: Map Debian release aliases to codenames (LP: #918231)

[ Evan Broder]
* sponsor-patch, requestsync, syncpackage: Add a config variable for -k
  arguments.

66. By Benjamin Drung on 2011-12-21

[ Benjamin Drung ]
* sponsor-patch:
  - Use syncpackage instead of subscribing ubuntu-archive for sync requests,
    because syncpackage supports sponsorship now.
  - Check if the sponsored bug is marked as duplicate (LP: #896733).
  - Allow user to override sanity checks (LP: #896733).

[ Stefano Rivera ]
* Correct reference to qemu-user-static in pbuilder-dist.1 (Closes: #651999)
* mk-sbuild: Don't install devscripts by default (LP: #904502)
* backportpackage: Add --release-pocket option, rather than relying entirely
  on heuristics (Closes: #651546)
* syncpackage: Mention sponsorship when closing bugs (LP: #904288)

65. By Stefano Rivera on 2011-12-09

[ Stefano Rivera ]
* mk-sbuild: Make --eatmydata command line flag actually work.
* Remove dgetlp. No longer needed.
* Use httplib2 everywhere that we do https. The python stdlib doesn't do
  certificate verification.
* requestbackport:
  - Check for existing backport bugs first.
  - Check that there are published binaries (i.e. not stuck in bin-NEW).
* pull-lp-source, requestbackport: Take the latest version from any
  non-backports pocket. Implemented by making lpapicache's getSourcePackage
  smarter.
* sponsor-patch: Build a source package for lintian to run on, when not
  test-building syncs.
* sponsor-patch: Check the bug's title, not the task, when determining
  source series for syncs.
* mk-sbuild, pbuilder-dist, ubuntu-build: Add armhf.
* pull-debian-source, pull-lp-source: Resolve the source package (via DDE),
  if a binary package was requested (LP: #617349)
* submittodebian:
  - Do the report boiler-plate checking in a script that wraps an editor, so
    that we only edit the report once, after checking for duplicates.
  - rm the tmpdir with a little more force (shutil.rmtree) (LP: #899399)
* New Tools: (LP: #876554)
  - ubuntu-upload-permission: Query upload permissions.
  - seeded-in-ubuntu: Query a package's seed status. Whether it is on
    current daily images and/or part of the supported seed.
* syncpackage: Support sponsorship for native-syncs, now that LP does.

[ Andreas Moog ]
* sponsor-patch: Check permission to unsubscribe sponsors-team (LP: #896884)
* grep-merges: We already require a UTF-8 enabled terminal, so encode
  package and uploader name in UTF-8 (LP: #694388)
* requestsync: Give user option to retry in case of temporary error
  (LP: #850360)

64. By Stefano Rivera on 2011-11-16

[ Marc Deslauriers ]
* mk-sbuild,doc/mk-sbuild.1: switch from aufs to overlayfs, as aufs is no
  longer in the Precise kernel.

[ Stefano Rivera ]
* mk-sbuild,doc/mk-sbuild.1: aufs may still be used if overlayfs isn't
  available (as is the case on Debian).
* mk-sbuild: debootstrap with all components, so that eatmydata can be
  installed.
* EditFile: Don't try and store temporary files in /usr/bin.
* EditBugReport: Don't include a newline in the bug title.
