Change logs for wicd source package in Experimental

  • wicd (1.7.4+tb2+2019.09.18git2e0ba579-1) experimental; urgency=low
    
      Upload to experimental to get a broader testing base of the python3 port
      and the dhcpcd5 changes. Not yet fully functional again.
    
      [ Axel Beckert ]
      * Don't list dhcpcd5 as preferred DHCP client in the alternative
        dependencies list. (Closes: #901592)
      * Replace versioned python build-dependency with an unversioned
        build-dependency on python2.
      * Look for "dhcpcd5" instead of "dhcpcd". (Closes: #852343)
      * Demote alternative list of DHCP clients from a hard dependency to a
        recommendation since in theory wicd can also be used just to switch
        between multiple static configurations. (Also closes: #901592)
      * Package git snapshot to test the port to Python 3. (Closes: #938823)
        + Refresh remaining patches as necessary.
        + Change (build-)dependencies to python3 variants.
        + Switch from python-gobject-2 to python3-gi.
        + Rename python-wicd to python3-wicd.
        + Use pybuild build system.
        + Add patches with all remaining needed changes, especially
          bytes vs string conversions and path issues.
        + Copy the generated wpath.py into the build directory before running
          dh_auto_test, i.e. the test suite.
        + Add some more files (mostly under "other") to debian/clean.
        + Add iw as dependency. iwconfig seems not yet fully replaced though.
        + Vcs-Git: Set branch to python3 until merged into master.
      * Bump debhelper compatibility level to 12.
        + Build-depend on "debhelper-compat (= 12)" to replace debian/compat.
      * Declare compliance with Debian Policy 4.4.1. (No changes needed.)
      * Add "Pre-Depends: ${misc:Pre-Depends}" to wicd-daemon as recommended
        by Lintian.
      * Disable test suite while Python 3 port is still incomplete.
    
      [ Ondřej Nový ]
      * d/copyright: Change Format URL to correct one
    
      [ Giap Tran ]
      * Apply patch by Vincent Lefevre to fix auto(re)connect while GUI is
        open. (Closes: #833929)
