30	* New upstream release: * New upstream release: - Fix a segfault when scanning links to empty pages (closes: #622104). - Once we've seen at least one record in a page's NAME section, ignore any further records that don't include a whatis description, as they tend to be noise. * Remove unnecessary .la files (closes: #622443).	Colin Watson	2.6.0.2-1	13 years ago
29	* New upstream release, fixing test failures in 2.6.0 (close... * New upstream release, fixing test failures in 2.6.0 (closes: #621867): - Ensure that the target of a symlink or .so chain is always recorded as a real page. - Read a user-specified configuration file even if HOME is unset.	Colin Watson	2.6.0.1-1	13 years ago
28	* New upstream release: * New upstream release: - Search the full manpath when expanding .so directives in manual pages. As part of this, '.so name.1' should now work as well as '.so man1/name.1' (closes: #503472, LP: #411534). - Handle roff named glyphs and perldoc strings in NAME sections (closes: #601025). - Don't start a pager if stdout is not a tty. - Allow passing multiple sections to whatis and apropos (closes: #571285). - Provide byte positions in manconv errors (closes: #562789). - Make mandb error output neater when stderr is not a tty. - Fix failure to display manual pages in some encodings when installed setuid. - Don't ignore SIGPIPE while forking iconv (closes: #597756). - Remove obsolete subdirectories of cat directories (closes: #558804). - If mandb sees that A is a symlink to B, it should never store a whatis reference for B (closes: #204249). - Print commas in roman rather than bold (thanks, David Prévot; closes: #600002). - Consider .PD requests as paragraph breaks (closes: #611012). - Reset SIGPIPE to SIG_DFL on startup, to avoid noisy output in the event that mandb was started from a context where SIGPIPE was ignored. - SECTION entries in a user configuration file now override those in the system configuration file, rather than appending to them. - If the user asked for an explicit section, sort exact matches first. - Rewrite all remaining subprocess handling in terms of libpipeline, especially some crash-prone code in catman (LP: #27738). - The default less prompt now includes "(press h for help or q to quit)" to help novices find their way around (http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/25975). - Fix a segfault when 'man -K' tries to display certain pages. - Fix a segfault in some situations when processes are killed by SIGHUP, SIGINT, or SIGTERM (LP: #218336). * Avoid unnecessary metadata writes to /var/cache/man when doing recursive chown (thanks, Iustin Pop; closes: #619726).	Colin Watson	2.6.0-1	13 years ago
27	* Add debconf translations: * Add debconf translations: - Slovak (thanks, Slavko; closes: #609347). * Fix test failure with groff 1.21. * Upload to unstable.	Colin Watson	2.5.9-4	13 years ago
26	Avoid assertion if no path elements with manpaths were found... Avoid assertion if no path elements with manpaths were found (closes: #608490).	Colin Watson	2.5.7-8	13 years ago
25	* Backport from 2.5.8: * Backport from 2.5.8: - Warnings about unrecognised locales are now suppressed if the DPKG_RUNNING_VERSION environment variable is set (i.e. man-db is running within a Debian package's maintainer script), since the system locales are often out of sync with the C library in that context. Thanks to the Debian Perl maintainers for the idea (closes: #605790).	Colin Watson	2.5.7-7	13 years ago
24	Move po/fr.gmo aside during build so that it gets regenerate... Move po/fr.gmo aside during build so that it gets regenerated based on translation-fr.patch, and build-depend directly on gettext for this (closes: #598066).	Colin Watson	2.5.7-6	13 years ago
23	* Backport from trunk: * Backport from trunk: - Fix a regression introduced in 2.5.7 when running catman in some locales, most notably in the C locale: while converting the output to UTF-8, iconv was run after the compressor rather than before it (closes: #593350, LP: #615045).	Colin Watson	2.5.7-4	13 years ago
22	* Remove unused build-dependency on gettext. * Remove unused build-dependency on gettext. * Check for VxID as well as envID in /proc/self/status (closes: #579551).	Colin Watson	2.5.7-3	14 years ago
21	* Add a watch file. * Add a watch file. * Backport from trunk: - Fix assertion failure on 'man -l' with an uncompressed page and prefixed input (no-hyphenation, no-justification, or a non-English page).	Colin Watson	2.5.7-2	14 years ago
20	* New upstream release: * New upstream release: - Make man(1) refer to the "Warnings" node in 'info groff' for a list of available warning names (closes: #545805). - Don't run tests if cross-compiling. - Add option to disable justification (closes: #440047). - Do what the user probably means when the full path to an executable is given as an argument (closes: #505465). - Search man<sec><ext> directories in the GNU layout (closes: #519807). - Prefer getting a page from the best manual section over getting a page in the correct language; I have my reservations about this, but it seems to be what people are requesting (closes: #519547). - 'man -f' and 'man -k' now pass through any -s option to apropos/whatis respectively. - All programs now support a MAN_DEBUG environment variable which can be used in place of the -d/--debug option. This is useful in some situations where a program is being called deep in a process tree. - Fix off-by-one error when write returns EAGAIN (thanks, Samuel Thibault; closes: #564818). - "%s: nothing appropriate." is an error; write it to stderr, not stdout (closes: #565255). - Don't bother printing error messages for SIGINT and SIGQUIT, since these correspond to explicit user actions (closes: #568000). - Fix sense of directory check while decompressing (closes: #537434). - Always save cat pages in UTF-8 (closes: #446741). * Convert to source format 3.0 (quilt).	Colin Watson	2.5.7-1	14 years ago
19	* Remove Ubuntu buildd hack now that the Ubuntu buildd chroo... * Remove Ubuntu buildd hack now that the Ubuntu buildd chroots preseed man-db/auto-update=false (thanks, LaMont Jones). * Backport from trunk: - Handle iconv errors when attempting to convert the last input encoding to UTF-8 (closes: #562503). * Unless we're cross-compiling, get dh_installman to use the version of man we just built.	Colin Watson	2.5.6-5	14 years ago
