Changelog
ppp (2.4.7-1+1~exp1) experimental; urgency=medium
* New upstream release.
* Remove all of the patches cherry-picked from 2.4.7 upstream.
* Update lintian overrides to account for changed plugin path.
* Promote myself to the Maintainer field with Marco's approval. Move Marco
to the Uploaders field. Thank you for many years spent maintaining this
package!
* Correct lintian warning maintainer-script-without-set-e in all maintainer
scripts.
* Switch to debhelper 9, including the command sequencer:
- Set debian/compat to 9.
- Bump Build-Depends on debhelper to >= 9~.
- Rewrite debian/rules.
- Use ppp.manpages rather than overriding dh_installman.
- Use *.install files rather than copying files; move files around in
debian/extra to make this clearer.
- Use ppp.examples rather than calling dh_installexamples ourselves.
* Remove some very old unused patches from debian/extra/PATCHES.
* Update debian/watch (new upstream download URL) and debian/rules
get-orig-source target.
* Introduce ABI tracking to help packages that build plugins:
- Introduce a new ABI version field to the package version number.
- Document the version numbering scheme in README.source.
- Add dh_ppp script, 'ppp' debhelper addon and /usr/share/ppp-dev/substvars
file to help generate Depends or Breaks lines.
- Document the debhelper tools in ppp-dev's README.Debian.
- At build time, make sure the package's upstream version matches the
version in pppd/patchlevel.h, and make sure there is an ABI revision in
the package version.
* Install pon/poff bash_completion file to
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions.
* Upload to experimental.
