gawk (1:3.1.5.dfsg-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * doc/gawk.info, doc/gawk.texi, doc/gawkinet.info, doc/gawkinet.texi:
    GFDL with invariant sections - removed and repackaged as 'gawk-doc'
    for non-free.  Closes: #357257
   * debian/rules (build): touch removed .info and .texi files in doc/ as a
     minimally intrusive (if nasty) way of pulling a fast one on the build
     system.
   * debian/rules (binary-arch): don't compress info files, instead remove
     the empty ones that now get installed.
   * debian/postinst: don't invoke install-info.
   * debian/prerm: likewise.

  * 20_eval.c-utf-8-strcat.dpatch: updated based on discussion with
    upstream to only manipulate 'l' not 'r'.

  * debian/postrm: remove pointless trailing 'exit 0'.
  * debian/prerm: #! as sh -e, rather than set-ing -e to be consistent
    with other maintainer scripts.

  * debian/rules (binary-arch): remove 2nd redundant chown to root.root of
    debian/tmp.  Move -maxdepth argument to find before -type to shut
    recent versions of find up.  Drop use of $(PWD) since it's unnecessary
    and we weren't using it consistently anyway.

gawk (1:3.1.5-2build1) dapper; urgency=low

    merged upstream - removed.

  * 14_io.c-fix-redirect-hang.dpatch: superseded by different upstream fix
    - removed.

  * debian/rules (binary-arch): remove '/awk' from 'datadir' and
    'libexecdir' we pass to 'make install' as gawk adds that itself now.
  
  * debian/postinst: Replace non-POSIX redirection &> with 2>&1.  Thanks
    to Brendan O'Dea.  Closes: #308135

  * 18_de.po-typos.dpatch: new patch from Jens Seidel to fix typos in the

  * 14_io.c-fix-redirect-hang.dpatch: new patch which reverts io.c changes
    that wait() when a redirect hits EOF without checking whether or not
    this is the kind of redirect which would have an orphan to wait() on.
    Closes: #263964

  * debian/control (Build-Depends): Add a versioned build-depends on a
    fixed binutils for m68k.  Closes: #278135

    that it works for me.

  * 10_dfa.c-no-go_fast.dpatch: replaced...
  * 10_dfa.c-disable-cache.dpatch: ... with this.  Which is upstream's fix
    for the same problem.

  * 15_builtin.c-fix-wide-char.dpatch: new patch by Stephen Kasal to fix
    wide-char to{lower,upper}() handling.
  
  * 16_awkgram.y-stop-at-eof.dpatch: new patch by Andreas Schwab to stop
    gawk reading past the end of the file for an awk script that is big
    enough to fill more than a buffer's worth and does not end with a
    newline.

  * 17_fix-non-numeric-constants.dpatch: new patch by Aharon Robbins to
    improve handling of non-numeric constants so that numbers like 00.34
    don't get confused as being octal.
