  * added a configuration option (AptListbugs::DebugFile) to specify a file
    which will be overwritten with the debug output
  * enhanced the handling of the user's answer to the questions on how

    his/her mind and answered 'n' to the "Are you sure?" question, the
    operation was carried on, no matter what

    0.2.4.8-0.1 resulted in dropping a final empty line)

    as they are now deprecated (see changelog entry for package gem2deb,
    version 2.1).

apt-listbugs (0.1.37) unstable; urgency=medium

  * bumped Standards-Version to 4.6.1: no changes needed
  * added a second test for autopkgtest (a superficial smoke test)
  * defined a name for the first autopkgtest test (the one that runs
    the unit test suite)
  * added a third test for autopkgtest (a live test against the Debian BTS,
    requiring access to Internet)
  * added a fourth test for autopkgtest (a test for the rss command, requiring
    access to Internet)
  * added a fifth test for autopkgtest (a test for the proxy configurations,
    requiring access to Internet and a local proxy, such as privoxy)
  * dropped the obsolete test scripts
  * converted debian/copyright to machine-readable format and updated FSF
    address in permission notices; improved descriptions of copyright owners
    in translations
  * enhanced handling of cases where a bug number is unknown to the BTS
    (for instance, a user may ask to ignore a bug that is not known to the
    BTS: apt-listbugs must not crash, but just refuse to add that bug to
    the list of ignored bugs)
  * fixed "automatic pinning is not added under unattended-upgrades":
    added a call to save() for force_pin case; this regression was introduced
    when the update of files was deferred to the end of the session; thanks
    to Paul Wise for reporting and investigating the bug! (Closes: #1021289)
  * dropped obsolete automatic pin migration (which had been implemented
    in 2014 for upgrades from apt-listbugs version <= 0.1.13 to version
    >= 0.1.14): anyone wishing to upgrade from apt-listbugs version <= 0.1.13
    to version >= 0.1.37 will need to perform a two-step upgrade
  * enhanced style in online help by avoiding abbreviations

Superseded in sid-release
apt-listbugs (0.1.32) unstable; urgency=medium

  * fixed "Please consider dropping dependency on s6 / s6-setuidgid":
    instead of using s6-setuidgid, use setpriv from package util-linux,
    which is essential and thus guaranteed to be installed on every
    non-broken Debian system (Closes: #921819)
  * added a command to only write bug lists in HTML, without running a
    browser on the resulting temporary file (the URI is instead shown,
    so that the user may copy and paste it into a browser location bar)
  * fixed "Listbugs-spawned QueryBTS can't find Firefox": when dropping root
    privileges (before invoking querybts or a browser), also drop DISPLAY
    and XAUTHORITY environment variables, so that no access to any graphical
    environment will be granted (Closes: #948697)
  * bumped Standards-Version to 4.5.0: no changes needed
  * simplified debian/rules by using the execute_after target (this is only
    supported in bullseye, buster-backports, and later...)
  * improved some error messages
  * fixed "listbugs prompt will only accept a package name for pinning": added
    a command to pin packages affected by specified bugs (Closes: #954859)
  * redirected debug output to stderr; redirected progress printing and
    output of --help to stdout
  * dropped the "a" command: replaced by the "i" command (with no arguments)
    which marks all the bugs as ignored (but does not immediately let the
    APT installation continue)
  * deferred the update of /var/lib/apt-listbugs/ignore_bugs until the user
    exits (with the "y" or "n" command)
  * improved the "i b<id>" and "i <num>" commands: when a user marks a bug
    as ignored, all merged bugs are marked as ignored
  * dropped the "h <pkg>.." and "h" commands, which have been deprecated
    since at least 2006 (!)
  * improved the "c" and "w" commands: bugs of pinned packages should not
    be shown in HTML bug lists
  * deferred the update of /etc/apt/preferences.d/apt-listbugs until the
    user exits (with the "y" or "n" command)
  * fixed "simplify wording for pinning description": added the 'u' command
    to undo all the dodge/pin/ignore operations done from the beginning
    of the session; the rest of the accepted feature requests included in the
    bug report have already been satisfied (Closes: #921583)
  * moved internal executables from /usr/lib to a subdirectory of /usr/libexec
  * fixed the generation of the translation template apt-listbugs.pot
  * bumped debhelper compatibility version to 13: no changes needed

Superseded in sid-release
apt-listbugs (0.1.31) unstable; urgency=medium

  * modified all references to /usr/sbin/apt-listbugs into references to
    /usr/bin/apt-listbugs (the former is just a symlink to the latter,
    installed for backward compatibility: hence invoking the symlink should
    be deprecated)
  * enhanced robustness of the postrm script (when purging, remove directory
    /etc/apt/listbugs/, along with all its content, if any)
  * dropped directory /var/cache/apt-listbugs/, which has been useless
    for a long time (since at least Debian 6 "squeeze")
  * bumped Standards-Version to 4.4.1: no changes needed
  * added Rules-Requires-Root field to debian/control
  * updated Dutch translation, thanks to Frans Spiesschaert! (Closes: #945357)

apt-listbugs (0.1.14) unstable; urgency=medium


  * fixed "please don't break apt on failures": when ruby-debian binary
    library fails to load, suggest a possible way to fix things up
    and then exit with error (Closes: #747487)
  * simplified use of dpkg-parsechangelog in various places
  * made the --force-pin option the new fallback mode for all cases
    where standard output is not a tty (this implies that unattended
    installations/upgrades will automatically pin buggy packages!)
  * enhanced internationalization of error and warning messages
  * enhanced error handling (also catch Errno::EBADF in apt mode)
  * added a dependency on ruby-unicode to correctly compute the width
    of asterisk headers and of output to be updated
  * fixed "Please provide a way to stop the querying of bug reports when
    there are a lot of them.": it is now possible to make apt-listbugs
    exit immediately (and successfully) by sending it a SIGUSR1, for
    instance with the command "killall -USR1 apt-listbugs" (Closes: #273565)
  * added a warning about pinning: when /etc/apt/preferences cannot be
    written to, apt-listbugs warns the user, rather than crashing
  * enhanced aptcleanup:
     - added file access error handling for cases where /etc/apt/preferences
       does not exist or is not readable
     - clarified one debug message
     - internationalized non-debug messages
  * improved detection of previous pins when pinning buggy packages
  * fixed "manually ignored bugs should have a comment, too": a comment line
    is now added in a way similar to the line added for automatically ignored
    bugs (Closes: #484423)
  * updated Danish translation, thanks to Joe Dalton! (Closes: #754131)
  * fixed "faster method to select bugs": bugs are now also assigned short
    identifiers of the form "b<id>" (Closes: #532678)
  * re-upgraded the recommendation of ruby-xmlparser to a dependency, since,
    without it, apt-listbugs is really slow when retrieving large numbers of
    bugs
  * improved HTML bug lists (charset is now also declared in a meta http-equiv
    statement, in order to enhance portability of the generated HTML page)
  * fixed "Please support writing APT pinning to /etc/apt/preferences.d/":
    package pins are now stored in /etc/apt/preferences.d/apt-listbugs;
    see the NEWS file, in case you need to downgrade to a previous version
    (Closes: #719988)

apt-listbugs (0.1.13) unstable; urgency=medium


  * improved README.Debian formatting
  * documented how to temporarily disable the invocation of apt-listbugs
    in README.Debian
  * added some further considerations to the section about the "affects"
    field in README.Debian
  * fixed a bug in the handling of the user's answer to the question on
    how to proceed (continue or stop the installation, or pin packages,
    and so forth...): a "y" answer is now ignored, when some packages
    have just been pinned
  * improved the man page:
     - clarified what happens with the force options when in apt mode
     - enhanced the explanation of the exit status
     - improved style and clarity of the explanation for IgnoreRegexp
     - enhanced the explanation of APT_HOOK_INFO_FD
     - clarified the explanation of the severity filter option
  * updated gitweb URL in man page and in debian/copyright file
  * fixed another bug in the handling of the user's answer to the question on
    how to proceed: an answer containing the letter "h" or "p" is no longer
    misinterpreted as an "h" or "p" answer
  * refreshed the .pot file for internationalization
     - switched to rxgettext for the .pot file generation
  * enhanced reading of ignore_bugs files: each line is considered a comment,
    if its first nonwhitespace character is '#'; otherwise, the first word
    is considered a package name or bug number to be ignored.
  * downgraded the dependencies on ruby-xmlparser and ruby-httpclient to
    recommendations
  * fixed "auxiliary script send-hook-info.rb fails to work with Ruby 2.0":
    added an explicit file descriptor redirection to the exec call in order
    to adapt to Ruby 2.0 stricter behavior; thanks a lot to Christian
    Hofstaedtler for explaining what was wrong and for pointing me to the
    appropriate documentation! (Closes: #740564)
  * fixed "New feature to automatically pin packages (implementation patch
    supplied)": implemented the --force-pin option, thanks to Famelis George
    for the initial patch, updated by Serafeim Zanikolas (thanks!) and
    further modified by me (Closes: #441689)
  * fixed "make ParseStep configurable": created an APT configuration
    option (Closes: #562499)
  * fixed "should try and be more informative on "invalid date" SOAP
    parsing error" (Closes: #493632) and "Proposed Workaround for
    Apt-listbugs SOAP Failures" (Closes: #524768): on network errors,
    apt-listbugs now proposes to the user to retry one bug report at a
    time and begins showing the bug number currently being parsed.
