menu (1.5-17) frozen; urgency=low

  * Added 'technical' section to preferred menu layout. (promised to do
    that already long ago...) 
  * If install-menu runs as user, $rootprefix/ is used if $userprefix
    doesn't exist. Fixes 26851, but not as nicely as Joey suggests.
    (install-menu tests for the existance of the directory, not for the
    files within that dir, so if $userprefix exists, it has to contain all
    files).
  * Updated standards version.
  * Added manual pages for install-menu, install-fvwmgenmenu, su-to-root
    wm-menu-config (for lintian)
  * Fixed some misplacements in the menu.sgml file. In particular, part of
    the section intended for `packages with wm's', was put under `packages
    with applications'. This should have caused serious confusion.

menu (1.5-16) unstable; urgency=low

  * Corrected 'WindowManagers' entry in preferred menu tree (in the docs)
  * Added plurals to pixmap directories. Fixes: 26479
  * Changed 8 spaces to one tab in debian/rules. Fixes:26865

menu (1.5-15) unstable; urgency=low

  * Applied suggested changes in bugreport 25231. Fixes: 25231
  * Added Apps/hamradio to preferred menu structure (nobody but
    hamradioers will see it anyway (request by: Joop Stakenborg, 
    stakenborg@hyph.azr.nl))
  * replaced '[[:space:]]' with '[ \t]' in update-menus. Should at
    least make menu work around sed changes (Fixes: 25035)
  * Moved 'waiting for dpkg to finnish' message to just before the fork(),
    so that the user will now see it where it's expected (before, the
    message sometimes came after dpkg started installing the next
    pacakge). Also the message now only comes with the '-v' option.

menu (1.5-14) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added "Apps/Text" to the documentation
  * now uses "dpkg --get-selections" to get the installed packages.
  * applied suggested patch to su-to-root (default exit 1, only
    retry if user answered Y or y).

 -- joost witteveen <joostje@debian.org>  Sat, 11 Jul 1998 22:30:08 +0200

menu (1.5-13) unstable; urgency=low

  * Removed the packaging manual entry.
  * removed comments in the debian/rules file from imurdoc, saying it was
    "last modified 1994", and other rather out of date stuff.
  * Fixes to compile with egcs. (now uses optimisation!)
  * More understandable error message if menuentry files are incorrectly
    installed executable.
  * update-menus now installs without the executable bit on, the postinst
    turns it on.

menu (1.5-12) frozen unstable; urgency=low
  * Fixed postrm example in documentation. (actually, quite serious --
    many window managers should now be changed, but fortunately the
    bug fixed doesn't occur very easily).    
  * Fixed mis-handling of files that don't end with newline.
    noticed by Jochen Kronjaeger <Kronjaeg@Stud-Mailer.Uni-Marburg.DE>
    (thanks!)

menu (1.5-11) unstable; urgency=low

  * Went through the buglist again, and updated the default
    menuentryfiles (and removed those that now exists in other
    debian packages). Fixes: 13880 15081 17171 17215 17292.

menu (1.5-10) unstable; urgency=low

  * Oh, yes, Aaron Howell, you were right. I did forget to close (free)
    some files. Fixed that, so this fixes: 17253
  * Fixed error in install-menu that caused the creation directories
    in / (at least for KDE and wmaker. Not sure why not for other wm's)
  
 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Sun, 15 Mar 1998 10:02:23 +0100

menu (1.5-9) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed several possible segmentation faults (all in error-reporting
    routines)
  * Input buffer for 'readline' increased to 10240 bytes. Fixes: #19482
    (should really fix this sometime)

 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Thu, 12 Mar 1998 21:23:13 +0100
menu (1.5-8) unstable; urgency=low

  * Removed reference to README in all files where it was still referenced.
    (many, many files, that was!)
  * changed a \fL to a \fB in the menufile.5 manpage
    (fix suggested by Joey Hess).  fixes: #17187
  * Make wm-menu-config an executable script.
  * applied suggested fixes to doc/menu.sgml, fixes: #17475
  * changed default warning "#Automatically generated file. Do not edit
    (see /usr/doc/menu/README)" to point to /usr/doc/menu/html/index.html.
    (This is placed at the top of the files install-menu generates).
  * document the availability of "!include file" in the menuentry files
  * Changed a "~/menu-methods" to "~/.menu-methods" in update-menus.1
  * Numerous changes to the documentation, after many suggestions
    from Yann Dirson (thanks!)
  * Applied patch from Herberd, fixes:19056  
  * removed the libg++ dependancy code (not the libg++ package, it still
    uses libstdc++).
 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Sun, 8 Mar 1998 12:00:13 +0100

menu (1.5-7) unstable; urgency=low

  * Really added wm-menu-config file (Fixes: #17169)
  * compressed menufile.5 (Fixes: #17168)
  * Added geometry to rxvt entry in menu.h (as suggested in #17171)
  * Really removed gv default menuentry. (Fixes: #17170)

 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Fri, 16 Jan 1998 02:23:13 +0100

menu (1.5-6) unstable; urgency=low
  * done nothing at all, fixes: #13648, #13657, #13676, #13677, #13680, #15765
    (fixing 6 GRAVE bugs, by doing nothing)
  * Removed default menufiles for xlockmore, fixes: #10831 
  * Added the "suggested" variables "geometry" and "visability" to
    the menu.sgml file, and /etc/menu-method/menu.h.
  * Added some comments to /usr/doc/menu/examples/cat
  * Fixed the dpkg default menuentry file. Fixes: #14170, #15847
  * Finally applied (most of) patch supplied by Nikita Schmidt.
    Fixes: #14318
  * removed convert-menuentry, fixes: #15914
  * Applied patch from Dirk Luetjens <dirk@luedi.oche.de>
    fixes: Bug#15871
  * Now compresses update-menus.1 manual page
    fixes: #14569
  * Compressed changelog.Debian. Fixes: #15429
  * Removed the following default menuentry files: 
      afterstep ddd fvwm2 fvwm95 gnuplot gv menu olvwm pixmap procps
      vim xfig xpaint xxgdb
    as they are already present in the packages themselves.
    (list supplied by Andreas Jellinghaus <aj@fw-athene.wiwi.uni-karlsruhe.de>)
  * Added a wm-menu-config script, and updated documentation.
    Now window managers are encouraged to use this instead of directly
    calling update-menus. (the script does more).

menu (1.5-5) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added ifelsefile, and catfile functions for Andreas Jellinghaus.

menu (1.5-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Removed several "debugging" files (gmon.out, output of strace, etc).
  * Now really create html documentation during pacakge build.

 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Thu, 18 Sep 1997 19:38:27 +0200

menu (1.5-3) unstable; urgency=low
  * Fixed a bug found by a close cooperation with the xpat2 maintainer
    and Lars Wirzenius: if a menuentry (for xpat2 in this case) begins with
    "?package(non-installed-package)", and has less than some number of
    variable-assignements after the colon, update-menus reported an error.
    (if there are "enough" assignemnts, no error will be reported, but
    update-menu would create a bogus menuentry). Good work, guys!
  * Switched the "postinst" and "postrm" labels in the documentation,
    fixing bug#12522 (and 12521, for that matter).
  * added a much bigger xbase menuentry file. This one really should
    go into xbase itself, and Mark asked me for it, but I've had too
    little time to really check this. Hopefully by including it in
    menu it will recieve some more checking, untill I feel confident
    enough to send it to Mark Eichin.
  * Removed xlockmore menuentry file, is now part of xlockmore.
  * (and I removed another menuentry file, but cannot remember
    which one).
 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Thu, 18 Sep 1997 19:18:44 +0200

menu (1.5-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added a sanity-check for instal-menus config file (prevents
    setfaults).
  * removed xlockmore default menu entries, they are now in the
    xlockmore package (or will be, soon).
  * corrected default dpkg menu entries.
  
 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Sun,  3 Aug 1997 22:19:11 +0200

menu (1.5-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added entrycount(), entryindex functions. 
  * Added add(), sub(), mult(), div() functions.
  * moved cmap.xpm to .../pixmaps
  * now includes sgml and html versions of README.
    (due to restrictions of debiandoc, no info files can be made!)
  
 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Sun, 13 Jul 1997 13:13:11 +0200

menu (1.4-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Now depends on libg++272. (Made possible by a dpkg-source bugfix
    from Joey Hess).
    
  * Few fixes to how debugging/error output is handled (cosmetic).
  * this release still has a (harmless) race-condition (noticed
    by Joey Hess),when two update-menus programmes run simultaniously
    while dpkg -i something is running (or Suspended).

 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Thu, 10 Jul 1997 23:05:14 +0200

menu (1.4-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Due to extra features/bugreporting, this version doesn't work well
    with the menu-bugs in fvwm95_2.0.42a-10, and latex2html_96.1.h-5.

  * added ability do "define" functions to install-menu.
    (very usefull if you want to have a common xterm/rxvt for all
    window managers)
  * '!include \"/etc/menu-method/filename\"'
  * read !include "filename" relative to current direcotry
  * provide /etc/menu-method/menu.h example file.
  * parsing of (all) files files somewhat rewritten; should be
    more stable now (except for bugs).
  * trailing spaces are stripped (so a \ at the end of the
    line will always be a continuation line, even if there's a
    space after it).
  * _Much_ better error reporting.
  * removed all those pesky "icon=none" from the example menufiles.
  * in new menu format, "package(local.*)" is considered installed
  * fix bug in hotkey generation
  * first check for "examplercfile" (system.$wm-menu), and then create
    output file.
  * made the README in /usr/doc/menu/example/README somewhat clearer as
    to what the purpose of these files is
  * incorporated afterstep-package menu-method's into my example
    menu-method (allong with the "!include menu.h" stuff).
  * install-menu: added toupper() and tolower() functions
  * do not attempt to read menuentry files with the name "core".
  * Using libc6 now
  * fixed gpmconfig entry.
  * added Joey's cmap.xpm file.
  * in compat mode (for old /etc/menu-methods's), write esccpp($title)
    as identifier (fixes "install-menu uses text instead of x11 entry"
    bug).
  * in case of missing "section=" (in new-format menuentry), assume
    seciont="/". (fixes a reported bug, I believe).
  * "+" can now be part of a package name, in new-format menuentries.
    (previously, doc++ and libg++ couldn't have a new-format menuentry).
  * executable menuentries are now executed, and the stdout used as
    menuentry (nice feature request from Joey Hess)
  * update-menus now reads config info in /etc/menu-methods/menu.config
    (or ~/.menu-methods/menu.config). Currently can specify only error
    logging. (set "verbosity=quite" in /etc/menu-methods/menu.config to
    remove all messages). Not very well tested yet.

menu (1.3-2) frozen unstable; urgency=low	
  * couple of simple bug-fixes. All not very serious, but would
    like this to go into frozen anyway.
  * fixed menuentry(5) manual page (was simply wrong)
  * made the default install messages somewhat nicer (in order not
    to scare away newbies)
  * Redirected stderr of the killall command in postinst to /dev/null
  * fixed typos in extended description (in control file).

menu (1.3-1) frozen unstable; urgency=low

  * Only change: added ifeq(), ifneq(), ifeqelse(), ifroot() to install-menu
    (and the README).
  * Added a "killall update-menus" to postinst (to prevent problems if
    update-menus is upgraded along with other packages that use it).
  
 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Thu, 8 May 1997 12:43:00 +0200

menu (1.2-3) frozen unstable; urgency=low

  * Another two-line-fix to update-menus, fixing the compat mode code.
    (if no icon was defined, that resulted in errors for the compat mode).
  * I would like this release to go into frozen, as it does
    fix a long-standing bug (still present in frozen), and will
    improve many people's experience with the menu's after isntalling
    some "unstable" packages (some of which may need the new menu
    functionality).

menu (1.2-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Thanks, Andy Mortimer, for noticing I don't close the fd's. 
    doing that now.

 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Sat, 3 May 1997 15:43:46 +0200

menu (1.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Changes to README (documents parent(), basename()).
  * Slichtly changed the dpkg-lockfile detection in update-menus,
    after a report from Andy Mortimer

 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Sat, 3 May 1997 14:52:45 +0200

menu (1.2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixes to example dwww script (though Jim Pick has a much
    better one)
  * Fixes to install-menu, for submenu entries.
  * Fixes to update-menus, no core dup on malformed "?package(..)" in
    menuentry files.
  * extra functions replacewith(), prefix() (install-menu)
  * make hotkeys case-insensitive.
  * the genmenu=, prerun=, postrun= assignments can now contain
    substitutions just like the startmenu etc ones.
  * Added a "|| errno==EACCES" after the attempt to lock the dpkg lockfile
    to hopefully check for all possible errno valus fcntl creates.
  * changed the "your system is messed up badly" message to 
    something nicer (now it is "please help me track down 
    this problem I have")
  * update-menus only gives the "forking to backround" text when
    it didn't kill any other update-menus (so you'll only see it
    once in a multy-package install session).


 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Wed, 30 Apr 1997 22:55:57 +0200

menu (1.1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added a few more example-menumenthods (afterstep, ctwm, twm, fvwm,
    fvwm95, dwww). With dwww you now have descriptions of the packages
    in the http://rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl/dwww/menu.html page.
    (make that http://localhost/dwww/menu.html, after you've instaled it).
  * These new menu-methods are now better than the old ones, as they
    properly quote the title.
  * fixed a few bugs in install-menu that caused it to interpret
    ifnempty() and ifempty() the wrong way around (also ifelse,...).
  * fixed permissions in /usr/doc/examples/*
  * fixed a few "default" menuentries.
    

 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Mon, 21 Apr 1997 23:30:28 +0200

menu (1.0) unstable; urgency=low

  * complete remake, added a lot of functionality.
  * New features
     - support for long titles and descriptions,
     - much more flexible /etc/menu-methods files,
     - if dpkg is running, forks into background, to get rid of that
       "need to run update-menus twice" syndrome.
     - support for hotkeys
  * see /usr/doc/menu/BUGS for known limitations of this release.

  * add an example to create a www page for packages providing
    "dwww" documentation
  
 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Thu, 23 Jan 1997 22:27:30 +0100

  * Manpages by Joey Hess (now it's a real package!)
  * if user runs, and ~/.menu-methods exists, read the
    config files from there (and don't process /etc/menu-methods).
  * Add support for olvwm ("treewalk" attribute /etc/menumethods)
  * -f -stdio is now standard (options are ignored, and always passed on
    to /etc/menu-methods/*)
  * files in /etc/menu-methods with anything other than letters/figures/_-
    are silently ignored by update-menus
  * some speedup in install-fvwmgenmenu (not as much as I'd hoped).
  * added $d{var}, $s{var}, $b{var} variable substitutions
    (request from Joey Hess).
  * if getuid()!=0, also parse /etc/menus, /usr/lib/menus.
  * Moved Lockscreen and Savescreen to Screen/ in default menus
  
 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Sun, 12 Jan 1997 00:46:38 +0100

menu (0.9) unstable; urgency=low

  * "popup" bugfix
  * Don't read /etc/menu-methods/*.* files (with a dot in it, usually
    backup files from dpkg).
 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Fri, 3 Jan 1997 14:31:15 +0100

menu (0.8) unstable; urgency=low
  * Fixing longstanding bug (one Joey reported loads of times)
    when update-menus is run from a postinst (from a previously
    uninstalled package), update-menus assumes this pacage is not installed.
    Fixed by looking at commandline of ppid, and checking for
    "bash /var/lib/dpkg/info/$package.postinst"
  * The fvwmgenmenu now has a more general compat mode that should
    supports all window-managers, without recompilation.
    For more robustness, this mode is incompatible with the old
    install-fvwm2menu programme, though (different/no cache files).
  * update-menus has a mode to pipe the menuentries through
    stdin of the menu-method installer programmes (-f --stdin option).
    This should make everything somewhat faster.
  * The old /etc/menu-methods/* config files may not work any more.
    (Although I tried fvwm95, and that still works).
    If your window manager doesn't have the debian menus any more, please
    copy the relevant files from /usr/doc/menu/examples to
    /etc/menu-methods, and run "update-menus -f".
  * removes couple of /usr/lib/menu/default files that now are in the packages
    themselves.
  * update-menus hands -f uption to menu-methods

 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Sun, 15 Dec 1996 22:37:25 +0100

menu (0.7) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added some 9wm support (now gwm is the only manager without support)
    (Although only the pdmenu and fvwm95 packages support it. The other
    window manager have support files in /usr/doc/menu/examples)
  * One bugfix in update-menus. 
  * Added a few shells. These are in the "/Apps/Shells" section, and
    therefore I had to rename "/Shells" to "/XShells". That OK with everybody?
  * fvwm/twm/9wm install-fvwmgen menu compat modes now use full id's
    for the submenu's (request from Joey)
  * install-fvwmgenmenu now replaces $%{icon} with %icon% if icon!="none"
    in the "supported" section in the config file. This is added
    to the example config files for install-fvwmgenmenu
  
 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Fri, 13 Dec 1996 19:01:39 +0100

menu (0.6) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added example files for twm and afterstep window manager. (along with
    the already avaliable fvwm, fvwm2 example files).
  * Again, the "default" support for fvwm2 has been removed (version 0.5),
    as this should be in fvwm2. See /usr/doc/menu/examples/${wm} on how
    to add support.

  * do space-stripping for fvwm2 (should be in fvwm2 package, but never mind)

 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Sun, 1 Dec 1996 13:54:10 +0100

menu (0.4) unstable; urgency=low

  * if the .updated-menus "cache" file has incorrect entries, update-menus
    could loop forever. Removed this bug.

 -- joost witteveen <joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl>  Thu, 28 Nov 1996 12:28:17 +0100

menu (0.3) unstable; urgency=medium
  * Added Depends: shlibs line to controlfile.
  * allowed for spaces in description fields (quote them with "sp ace")
    (so now the "hello" App/Programming entry works!)
  * install default menufile if new one in /etc/menu vanished
  * Assume all packages called "local*" to be installed
  * Now has provision for starting other menu managers (twm),
    and fvwm{,2} modules (mostly untested). (this should be in the fvwm2
    package, though). Note that due to a bug in fvwm2 (install-fvwm2menu?)
    these don't work, at the moment. (See BUGS file in source)
  * First remove the menu-id's of to-be-updated menufiles, as the old
    menufile may have stale menu-id's in it.
  * Added "-v" (verbose) option to update-menus and
    /etc/menu-methods/fvwm2 
  * Still using filenames to encode the package names, but Lars has nearly
    convinced me! (If only I knew how solaris works). Still, I made the
    default menuentries conform Lars' ideas, and people using this package
    can just make (temporarily) both the filename and the entryid have
    the package name in it.

menu (0.2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added a few README's to the menu directories
  * now advice the packages to put their menufiles in /usr/lib/menu, after
    suggestion form Joey.
  * Removed buglet from update-menus.
  * Next is from the (unreleased) 0.1 version:
  * Totally changed menu idea; the menu files are now conffiles
    living in /etc/menu; and systemadm and users can run update-menus
    any time something changed in the /etc/menu or the user's ~/.menu
    database.
  * Users can override system-wide menu-database.
    (this is currently not fully implemented: there still is a bug
    when removing system-menu entries)
  * This menu-package now provides some 50 menu entries in /usr/lib/menu
    after installes this package you'll get a nice menu instantly, and
    hopefully, this will serve as a skeleton for other pacakge provides.
    (of cource, /etc/menu entries override the /usr/lib/menu entries).

    living in /etc/menu; and systemadm and users can run update-menus
    any time something changed in the /etc/menu or the user's ~/.menu
    database.
  * Users can override system-wide menu-database.
    (this is currently not fully implemented: there still is a bug
    when removing system-menu entries)
  * This menu-package now provides some 50 menu entries in /usr/lib/menu
    after installes this package you'll get a nice menu instantly, and
    hopefully, this will serve as a skeleton for other pacakge provides.
    (of cource, /etc/menu entries override the /usr/lib/menu entries).
