groff (1.23.0-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ G. Branden Robinson ]
  * debian/groff-base.mime: Run groff with '-t' to unconditionally preprocess
    with tbl(1).  Since these MIME types are assumed to be man pages anyway
    (hence the existing '-mandoc' option), it costs little to do this and will
    help many more documents render well.

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Map "-", "'", and "`" to "\-", "\[aq]", and "\[ga]" again for UTF-8
    manual pages (closes: #1041731).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Mon, 16 Oct 2023 12:11:07 +0100

groff (1.23.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Map CW to R for nroff (closes: #1040975).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Fri, 14 Jul 2023 17:44:41 +0100

groff (1.23.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release (closes: #1040440):
    - [libdriver]: Fix SEGV in printer::set_ascii_char (closes: #421437).
    - [docs]: groff(7): Replace many uses of \[cq] with \[aq] when the
      latter is what is meant (closes: #551111).
    - [docs]: groff(7): Fix missing escape synonyms for '.ft' (closes:
      #1021961).
    - [tbl]: Regularize diagnostics (closes: #710178).
    - [troff]: Avoid infinite loop (closes: #892423).
    - [docs]: roff(7): Revise language referring to Emacs as the "best"
      program for editing roff documents (closes: #248529).
    - [mdoc]: Fix infinite loop (closes: #411227).
    - [mdoc]: Fix bad page number placement (closes: #919890).
    - [mdoc]: Improve output of .At 32v (closes: #991633).
    - [libbib]: Validate input to avoid heap overread (closes: #716109).
    - [fonts]: Fix \[oq] and \[cq] in X11 text fonts (closes: #243238).
    - [gropdf]: Recognize "com10" paper format (closes: #1009248).
    - [docs]: Document grotty pager requirements more prominently (closes:
      #257413).
    - [docs]: pic(1): Fix content nits, including no longer referring to
      pic.ms (closes: #1032227).
    - [tmac]: Define fallbacks for chars in Latin-[259] (closes: #782903).
    - [mdoc]: Drop thin and hair space escape sequences from several string
      definitions (closes: #1021795).
    - [mdoc]: Indent entire subsection heading by 3 ens, even if it breaks
      across output lines (closes: #1022179).
  * Build-depend on m4, texlive-base, and texlive-latex-base (closes:
    #1011666).
  * Override Lintian source-is-missing misfire (see #1019980).
  * Drop mapping of \(oq to ' on devices other than utf8; upstream does this
    now for latin1, which is probably good enough.
  * Adopt upstream's use of SGR escape sequences for man/mdoc (LP: #610609).
    I turned these off for Debian in 2002 because pagers didn't cope well at
    the time, but it's now 21 years later and things have changed; SGR
    escape sequences resolve some ambiguity (see #963490) and are required
    for new features such as clickable hyperlinks.
  * Honour /etc/papersize in PDF output, now that gropdf has the necessary
    support upstream (closes: #1030097).
  * Set doc-default-operating-system to "Debian" (closes: #284002).
  * Map "^" to "\[ha]" and "~" to "\[ti]" for man/mdoc on the utf8 device,
    to mitigate an upstream change likely to expose many glyph usage errors
    in manual pages (although those errors were already visible in PDF
    output).
  * Arrange to rebuild documentation from the original source.
  * Install groff.pdf (the PDF form of groff's Texinfo manual).
  * Only force time display to UTC when the time came from SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
    (LP: #1908333).
  * Enable OSC 8 hyperlinks for man pages.

  [ Debian Janitor ]

  [ Vagrant Cascadian ]
  * Ensure reproducible builds regardless of usrmerge (closes: #949324).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Wed, 06 May 2020 09:24:11 +0100

groff (1.22.4-4) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Use debhelper-compat instead of debian/compat.
  * Cherry-pick from upstream:
    - Correctly handle groff_mdoc(7) .Lk arguments starting with a dot
      (closes: #946868).
    - Update NetBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Darwin, and DragonFly version strings
      (closes: #867123).

  [ Debian Janitor ]
  * Trim trailing whitespace.

  * Set upstream metadata fields: Bug-Submit (from ./configure), Name
    (from ./configure), Repository.
  * Drop unnecessary dependency on dh-autoreconf.
  * Drop unnecessary dh arguments: --parallel
  * Rely on pre-initialized dpkg-architecture variables.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Mon, 23 Dec 2019 22:38:19 +0000

groff (1.22.4-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Avoid Perl's unsafe "<>" operator (closes: #920269).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Thu, 28 Feb 2019 19:44:28 +0000

groff (1.22.4-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Helmut Grohne ]
  * Fix FTCBFS: Update build-native paths to new layout (closes: #917779).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Fri, 04 Jan 2019 19:13:49 +0000

groff (1.22.4-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sun, 23 Dec 2018 23:35:24 +0000

groff (1.22.4~rc5-1) experimental; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release candidate.
  * Drop papersize-pre-html.patch: the "printing" operation here is only for
    the purpose of extracting images, so all that matters is that the paper
    size be consistent across the various tools that are invoked.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Thu, 20 Dec 2018 12:55:46 +0000

groff (1.22.4~rc4-1) experimental; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release candidate.
  * Build-depend on gsfonts, so that devpdf's U-* fonts are generated.
  * Build-depend on poppler-utils, so that the new tests of mom examples
    work.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sat, 01 Dec 2018 01:27:42 +0000

groff (1.22.4~rc3-1) experimental; urgency=medium

  [ Ondřej Nový ]

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Adjust Vcs-* headers to reflect experimental branch.
  * Add GitLab CI configuration.
  * Adjust git-dpm tagging configuration.
  * Add alpha.gnu.org to debian/watch, for pre-releases.
  * New upstream release candidate.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Wed, 07 Nov 2018 11:09:18 +0000

groff (1.22.4~rc2-3) experimental; urgency=medium

  * Restore text versions of meintro.ps, meref.ps, and pic.ps, broken in
    1.22.3.rc1-1.
  * Remove debian/groff.info; upstream's build system installs these files
    by itself now.
  * Use #! /usr/bin/perl for all installed Perl scripts, per policy 10.4.
  * Remove dh_builddeb override to force gzip compression for groff-base;
    most of the rest of the debootstrap-installed set needs xz nowadays so
    that ship has sailed.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sat, 03 Nov 2018 13:20:36 +0000

groff (1.22.4~rc2-2) experimental; urgency=medium

  * Move pdfpic.tmac to groff-base, since troffrc reads it.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sat, 14 Apr 2018 18:30:52 +0100

groff (1.22.4~rc2-1) experimental; urgency=medium

groff (1.22.3.rc1-1) experimental; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release candidate.
  * Switch debian/watch to HTTPS.
  * Add signing key of new upstream maintainer (Bertrand Garrigues) to
    debian/upstream/signing-key.asc.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Fri, 09 Mar 2018 23:11:38 +0000

groff (1.22.3-10) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Set Rules-Requires-Root: no.
  * Remove "touch configure" from dh_auto_build override, which predated the
    use of dh-autoreconf.
  * Move VCS to salsa.debian.org.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sat, 10 Feb 2018 02:09:07 +0000

groff (1.22.3-9) unstable; urgency=medium

  * debian/watch: Switch URL scheme to HTTP.
  * Policy version 3.9.8: no changes required.
  * Backport from upstream:
    - tmac/zh.tmac: New file to support basic Chinese, both simplified and
      traditional (closes: #848030).
  * Install zh.tmac in groff-base.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Tue, 13 Dec 2016 13:06:22 +0000

groff (1.22.3-8) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Map "\-" to a plain hyphen when rendering HTML/XHTML output for manual
    pages (closes: #829332).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sat, 02 Jul 2016 21:04:05 +0100

groff (1.22.3-7) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Set build flags appropriately for the build architecture during the
    native build pass (based loosely on a patch from Balint Reczey, for
    which thanks; closes: #812872).
  * Remove debian/build-native/ on clean.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Thu, 28 Jan 2016 14:57:16 +0000

groff (1.22.3-6) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Override dh-exec-subst-unknown-variable Lintian tags, which are false
    positives.
  * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Wed, 27 Jan 2016 11:49:56 +0000

groff (1.22.3-5) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Drop obsolete build-dependency on xutils-dev.
  * Remove no-groff-x11 bootstrapping hack.  If anything like this is still
    needed, it should be reimplemented using build profiles, but since groff
    can be installed from a foreign architecture using multiarch I believe
    that this is now unnecessary.
  * Upgrade to debhelper v9, using dh-exec.
  * Build with large file support.
  * Remove long-obsolete maintainer script file migration code from 2001.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sat, 02 Jan 2016 18:09:43 +0000

groff (1.22.3-4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Fix incorrect display-UTC-time patch to gropdf (closes: #805374).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Tue, 17 Nov 2015 13:45:10 +0000

groff (1.22.3-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Add SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH support to mdate.sh, and restore upstream code
    there to force the C locale.
  * Use gmtime in mdate.sh.
  * Remove unnecessary randomness from hdtbl example output.
  * Always use UTC times for display.
  * Sort Perl hash keys.
  * Build with LC_ALL=C.UTF-8.  To some extent this is a cop-out as other
    packages using groff may still need to do similarly; I believe the
    remaining important place where groff is character-set-sensitive in a
    way that affects reproducibility of output is in the HTML postprocessor,
    which sometimes inserts spaces in UTF-8 locales but not (for example) in
    ASCII locales.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Fri, 06 Nov 2015 13:14:24 +0000

groff (1.22.3-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Explicitly compile with -std=gnu++98, to avoid potential future problems
    with GCC 6 defaulting to a newer standard.
  * Implement SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH for reproducible builds (closes: #762854).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Thu, 05 Nov 2015 11:51:53 +0000

  * New upstream release.
  * debian/groff-base.mime: Handle text/troff as well as
    application/x-troff-man.
  * Policy version 3.9.6: no changes required.
  * Add OpenPGP signature checking configuration to watch file.

groff (1.22.2-7) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Simplify debian/rules slightly to avoid hardcoding the list of targets
    that dh(1) understands.
  * Update Vcs-Browser URL for alioth cgit.
  * Build with all hardening options.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sun, 31 Aug 2014 03:51:26 +0100

groff (1.22.2-6) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Note that groff_mmse(7) is only available in Swedish locales (closes:
    #710431).
  * Describe \- as a minus sign rather than a dash in /etc/groff/man.local
    and /etc/groff/mdoc.local (thanks, Bjarni Ingi Gislason; closes:
    #742086).
  * Adjust debian/source/lintian-overrides to match Lintian's current output
    correctly.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Mon, 30 Jun 2014 03:09:27 +0100

groff (1.22.2-5) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Remove the W3C validation icons from generated HTML, to avoid tracking.
  * Policy version 3.9.5: no changes required.
  * Remove "debian/rules quilt-setup" target, obsoleted by git-dpm.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Wed, 22 Jan 2014 09:55:32 +0000

groff (1.22.2-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Move debian/source.lintian-overrides to preferred location of
    debian/source/lintian-overrides.
  * Use 'set -e' rather than '#! /bin/sh -e' in maintainer scripts.
  * Fix bad Texinfo markup for \z escape.
  * Fix grolbp crash if a printer was never created (thanks, Mayhem team at
    CMU; closes: #716003).
  * Force gzip compression for groff-base.deb, to avoid causing problems for
    debootstrap on non-Debian-based systems following dpkg 1.17.0.
  * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
  * Add support for various new BSD versions (thanks, Guillem Jover; closes:
    #717608).

    builds (closes: #709816).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Mon, 27 May 2013 23:09:35 +0100

groff (1.22.2-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Update /etc/groff/man.local and /etc/groff/mdoc.local with new
    commented-out code to force "-" back to Unicode HYPHEN, since upstream
    groff has mapped this to HYPHEN-MINUS since 1.20, and remove the
    Debian-local mapping of "\-" for the same reason.  Remove mention of
    this from README.Debian since the upstream change of default means that
    this is only of minority interest (closes: #703690).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sun, 07 Apr 2013 22:14:00 +0100

groff (1.22.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (LP: #1095075).
  * Use xz compression for binary packages.

    forward-compatibility with debhelper v8.
  * Use dh-autoreconf.
  * Change Homepage from http://groff.ffii.org/ to
    https://www.gnu.org/software/groff/.  Suggested by Bernd Warken.
  * Don't compress *.mom examples.  They're not all that large, and this
    allows dropping a manual page patch against upstream.
  * Recommend perl for gropdf.

groff (1.21-3) experimental; urgency=low

  * Go back to installing groff.info from the source directory, not the
    build directory; timestamps are such that make won't rebuild it (closes:

groff (1.21-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    - New warning category 'file'.  (man-db uses this as part of
      automatically enabling language-specific hyphenation rules, which
      should now work.)
    - CJK line-breaking and hyphenation support (closes: #552201).
    - Fix typo in groff_man(7) (closes: #369254).
    - Fix typo in "Character Translations" info node (closes: #450434).
    - Fix white heart and diamond Unicode values in groff_char(7) (closes:
      #540477).
    - Point to troff(1) for -w and -W in groff(1) (closes: #545807).
  * Document reasons for groff's Recommends in its package description
    (closes: #599648).
  * Switch build-dependency from byacc to bison, as that's what was used to

  * Force YACC='bison -y' when configuring, to avoid problems if byacc is
    also installed.
  * Use a separate build directory, eliminating the requirement to preserve
    some files by hand.
  * Policy version 3.9.1:
    - Rename debian/README.build to debian/README.source.
    - Add a Homepage field.
    - Refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GFDL-1.3 in debian/copyright
      rather than quoting it (although the GPL v3 governs this package, as
      explained in detail in debian/copyright).
    - Use Breaks rather than Conflicts.

groff (1.20.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (closes: #196762, #415754). See the NEWS file for
    full details of improvements, to which I can't do justice here, but
    items relevant to Debian bug reports include:
    - Unicode input support has been very much improved, including a new
      'preconv' preprocessor which converts various input encodings to
      something groff can understand directly (closes: #322760), which also
      allows us to avoid the old and rather broken ascii8 device (closes:
      #533778); support for composite glyphs; and localisation files for
      several languages.
    - mdoc .Dt now allows overriding the volume name (closes: #176575).
    - Backquote formatting fixed in groff(1) (closes: #184603).
    - HTML output much improved, including a DOCTYPE (closes: #190209).
    - \[an] is now U+23AF, not U+2500 (closes: #382265).
    - rs/rq typo fixed in groff(7) (closes: #402854).
    - pic now supports up to 32 macro arguments, and ignores further
      arguments rather than crashing (closes: #453260).
  * Dropped multibyte patch. CJK is partially supported by way of Unicode
    input, but widths are wrong and proper line breaking is not implemented;
    this is planned to be added by way of "character classes". However, I
    can't justify holding new groff code out of Debian any longer when CJK
    manual pages can more or less be read with the new release.
  * Since the M and G fonts no longer exist:
    - \f5 and \f6 no longer break (closes: #227091);
    - We no longer get spurious devdvi font errors (closes: #194041);
    - We no longer fail to italicise or underline CJK text (closes:
      #288382).
    - Angle brackets around URLs no longer have broken widths (closes:
      #522323).
  * Add localisation macro files to groff-base.
  * Adjust #! line of font/devlj4/generate/special.awk; awk is in
    /usr/bin/awk on Debian, not /bin/awk.
  * Add preconv to groff-base.
  * Imported into a branch on bzr.debian.org; add Vcs-Bzr control field.

  * Build-depend on x11proto-core-dev rather than x-dev (thanks, Lintian).
  * Use /bin/bash for eqn2graph and pic2graph due to use of $RANDOM, even
    though that's only a fallback in case mktemp fails (closes: #489604).
  * Display more helpful output if a device was not found but is known to be
    one of the devices in the groff binary package rather than groff-base.
  * Define .PS and .PE to empty strings in pic output to inhibit -wmac
    warnings (closes: #495713); similarly, define .EQ and .EN to empty
    strings in eqn output.
  * Add information to debian/copyright (a file from newer groff releases
    and a clarifying e-mail) noting that upstream has relicensed the groff
    documentation under the terms of the GPL (closes: #374569).
  * Remove some fallback constructs from groffer that aren't necessary with
    POSIX shells and that break dash (closes: #454902).

      and MT/ME; load it from an-old.tmac. This file is under a very liberal
      licence, and manual page authors should copy any macros they use from
      it to the preamble of their manual pages in order to ensure
      portability to older groff and other manual page viewers (closes:

  * Move www.tmac to groff-base (closes: #319506).
  * Fix non-XSI code in groff.postinst (part of #256226).
  * Improve CJK support (closes: #324107):
    - Add support for Chinese GB2312/GBK and BIG5 encodings (in the
      increasingly-misnamed nippon driver), with kinsoku tables borrowed
      from Emacs. Simon Law eyeballed the GB2312/GBK table.
    - Expect UTF-8 input when running under a ko_*.UTF-8 locale. Functional
      Korean support still requires a kinsoku table and a groff font
      covering Hangul.
  * Fix use of DoCharacter() in multibyte case; some calls to it were
    missing the fourth argument (closes: #285524).
  * Policy version 3.6.2. No changes required.

  * Add sample code to /etc/groff/man.local and /etc/groff/mdoc.local to
    make "-" render as Unicode HYPHEN-MINUS on the utf8 device. This is
    commented out by default because man pages which require this are buggy:
    "\-" should be used instead when a real dash as opposed to a logical
    hyphen is required.

groff (1.18.1-11) unstable; urgency=low

  * Never recode input or output for the ascii8 device. It doesn't work in
    non-trivial locales, since ascii8 isn't supposed to be prepared for
    input in, say, UTF-8, and the point of ascii8 is to be a trivial hack
    device for use when you know your input encoding is the same as your
    output encoding. This makes man(1)'s life easier, and incidentally fixes
    a problem with iconv replacing certain Polish characters with question
    marks (closes: #170320).
  * Revert part of the original attempt at fixing #170320 (in 1.18.1-2),
    which made ascii8 accept U+0100 to U+0200. This is no longer necessary
    with the above, and it broke the assumptions in
    font::get_font_wchar_metric(), causing problems for KOI8-R input.
  * Stop output devices breaking when given the 'x init' command in an
    intermediate output file rather than 'x init <encoding>'.

groff (1.18.1-8) unstable; urgency=low

  * Make sure that the default input character encoding is always
    ISO-8859-1, except for the ascii8 device and for Japanese locales. This
    is required for compatibility with upstream.
  * Automatically load latin1.tmac when using all terminal devices except
    ascii, not just the latin1 device.

groff (1.18.1-7) unstable; urgency=low

  * Use groff's font metric instead of wcwidth()
    (src/devices/grotty/tty.cc): add cols to tty_font
  	add_char takes font parameter
  	tty_printer:add_char calculate hpos by using font metric
    (src/include/encoing.h src/libs/libgroff/encoding.cc):
  	put_wchar returns number of bytes written, not columns.
  * font metric fixed, X*/M.proto,
  * fix sed script in font's Makefile.sub. sed doesn't see + as regex metachar.
    replace [0-9]+ to [0-9][0-9]*.

  * Use wcwidth() to find the width of UTF-8 characters. This seems to work
    well for both en_GB.UTF-8 and ja_JP.UTF-8, so both CJK and non-CJK

groff (1.18-7) unstable; urgency=low

  * Policy version 3.5.7:
    - Drop DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=debug support; compile with -g by default.
    - Support DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=noopt.
  * src/roff/troff/node.cc (bracket_node::copy): Fix a segfault on copying
    an empty bracket_node, such as '(\bu' (closes: #162595).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Fri, 27 Sep 2002 16:03:22 +0100

groff (1.18-6) unstable; urgency=low

  * Backport upstream patch to m.tmac for the benefit of gpresent: the VM
    macro definition was missing a backslash (closes: #160713).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Fri, 13 Sep 2002 00:54:39 +0100

groff (1.18-5) unstable; urgency=low

  * Document the Debian groff macro path in README.Debian.
  * Map \- to Unicode HYPHEN-MINUS in UTF-8 mode, for more convenient
    searching in man pages (closes: #159872).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Fri,  6 Sep 2002 22:34:21 +0100

groff (1.18-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Upstream patch to freeze unbreakable spaces, preventing a failed
    assertion on latin1(7) (closes: #155969).
  * Install text versions of meintro.ps, meref.ps, and pic.ps. Other
    documents either aren't very useful in plain text or don't format well
    (closes: #155226).
  * Reorder clean target a little.

groff (1.18-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * src/devices/grohtml/html-table.cc: Initialize another variable properly.
    This really fixes the segfault during the arm build.

groff (1.18-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * src/include/encoding.h: Fix broken token-after-#endif syntax.
  * src/devices/grohtml/post-html.cc: Make sure pointsize is initialized
    properly. This fixes an infinite loop in the ia64 build, and perhaps arm
    too.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sat, 27 Jul 2002 18:41:46 +0100

groff (1.18-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release. Highlights:
    - Colour support (although see below).
    - New macro set, mom, mainly for non-scientific writers. The aim of
      these macros is to make groff accessible for ordinary use with a
      minimum of convoluted syntax.
    - 'eu' and 'Eu' characters available for Euro support.
    - Improved support for TeX hyphenation files.
    - New means of setting the line length, which now works for -mdoc manual
      pages as well as -man. Use man-db >= 2.4.0 to take advantage of this.
    - Documentation of the differences between groff and Unix troff is now
      in groff_diff(7).
    - groff_mwww(1) has been renamed to groff_www(1).
    - groff_ms(7) has been completely rewritten.
    - New scripts: groffer, pic2graph, and eqn2graph.
    - Substantial improvements in grohtml (although it's still alpha),
      including dealing with overstriking properly (closes: #67545).

  * Many thanks, again, to Fumitoshi UKAI for forward-porting the Japanese
    patch.
  * Disable the new ANSI colour/bold/underline escapes in nroff mode,
    because most pagers either fail to cope with it or need special options
    to do so. It can be re-enabled by editing /etc/groff/man.local and
    /etc/groff/mdoc.local, or by setting the environment variable GROFF_SGR
    to something non-empty.
  * Drop most current /etc/papersize patches, as the 'papersize' DESC
    keyword is now available upstream. We now only patch the DESC files and
    extend the papersize keyword to allow falling back to something else if
    /etc/papersize doesn't exist.
  * Fix the removal of final newlines when reading /etc/papersize.
  * Translate the 'oq' character to an apostrophe (0x27) rather than a
    backquote (0x60) when using devices other than utf8 (closes: #149086).

  * Merge groff-x11 back into groff, since this release doesn't have to
    worry so much about smooth upgrades from potato (closes: #129835).
  * Accordingly, remove the debconf note about this, since it was an abuse
    of debconf anyway. README.Debian describes the package organization.
  * Include more documentation in the main groff package (closes: #121475).
  * Build-depend on gs, netpbm, and psutils for HTML documentation. Mention
    in README.build that people bootstrapping a new port or otherwise
    building the base system from scratch don't need these three.
  * Recommend these three packages for the grohtml driver.
  * Recommend imagemagick for pic2graph and eqn2graph.
  * Downgrade libpaperg dependency to a recommendation, since we fall back
    to a4 now if it's not installed.
  * Use debhelper v3 mode.
  * Upstream ships pre-built info files now, so use them. You need texinfo
    (>= 4.2) if you want to regenerate them.

groff (1.17.2-17) unstable; urgency=low

  * Back to unstable, now that there's no concern about disrupting woody.
    Merge changes from -15.woody.1 (unstable) and -16 (experimental).
  * Delete excess charset information in M and G font files that also use
    the fixedkanji directive, after consultation with Fumitoshi UKAI. This
    saves over 1.6Mb.
  * Move ps device to base, now that it isn't quite so large. It's needed
    there because it's the default device (closes: #131410).
  * Update the descriptions of groff-base and groff for the move of the
    PostScript device.

groff (1.17.2-16) experimental; urgency=low

  * Experimental upload for the benefit of the NetBSD porters.
  * Document the build-dependency loop with xfree86, and allow people
    constructing new ports to override this temporarily with
    DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=no-groff-x11 (closes: #130312).
  * Import AM_LANGINFO_CODESET macro from gettext, and use it for
    --enable-japanese to provide an emulation of nl_langinfo(CODESET) for
    systems that don't have it (closes: #130356).
  * Fix build without --enable-japanese.
  * Build-depend on a version of debhelper which pulls in debconf-utils
    (closes: #130357).
  * Test that Makefile.clean doesn't exist before clobbering it in the
    configure target.

groff (1.17.2-11) unstable; urgency=high

  * Use lpr as the print spooler, even if it happens not to be installed on

groff (1.17.2-9) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add Fumitoshi UKAI to Uploaders, in case of emergencies.

    think refer is very useful without additional macro packages.
  * Document refer in groff's description.
  * Move ChangeLog.jp and README.jp to groff-base.
  * Replace createM.c with a Perl implementation to aid cross-compilation
    (thanks, Fumitoshi UKAI; closes: #114338).

groff (1.17.2-8) unstable; urgency=medium

  * The "Texas Armadillo" release.
  * Policy version 3.5.6 (support build-arch and build-indep targets).
  * Reduce size of devnippon fonts, and include devnippon in groff-base
    (thanks, Fumitoshi UKAI and GOTO Masanori; closes: #112622).
  * Upstream fix for overzealous warnings from -mm and -ms (closes: #69129).
  * Fix building in a subdirectory (closes: #111229).
  * Remove spurious substitutions of '..' for '.' in groff_man(7).
  * groff depends on libpaperg so that /etc/papersize is always present.
  * Urgency medium as the above has broken some builds of other packages.
  * Correct quoted-printable remnant in Brazilian Portugese debconf template
    (thanks, Andre Luis Lopes; closes: #110192).
  * New Russian debconf template (thanks, Ilgiz Kalmetev; closes: #112653).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Wed, 19 Sep 2001 01:34:21 +0100

    meantime (closes: #107998, #108705).
  * Document that -E can't suppress messages output to stderr by macro
    packages using .tm or .tm1 (fix from upstream CVS; closes: #69130).
  * src/devices/grotty/tty.cc: Correct one instance of putchar() on a

    Schroeder; closes: #110008).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sun, 26 Aug 2001 00:15:42 +0100

groff (1.17.2-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * src/preproc/eqn/text.cc: Initialize wc to the value of the current
    character even if it isn't a wide character. Otherwise eqn would output
    nulls instead of normal characters (closes: #106551).
  * Conflict with jgroff as well as with pre-split versions of ordinary
    groff, and make references to jgroff versioned to avoid triggering on
    groff's Provides: field.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Wed, 25 Jul 2001 22:40:52 +0100

    system freeze. This version should be a significant improvement for
    non-ASCII/Latin-1 users.

  * New Japanese patch from Fumitoshi UKAI:

    groff (1.17.2-1.ukai.1) unstable; urgency=low

      * fix tmac/euc-jp.tmac (fix coding-system)

    groff (1.17.2-1.ukai.0) unstable; urgency=low

      * revised Japanese patch evaluation build
        - refactoring, cleanups

     -- Fumitoshi UKAI <ukai@debian.or.jp>  Sun, 15 Jul 2001 15:27:59 +0900

    Also added dq and cq characters to the ascii8 and nippon devices.

    (closes: #105276).
  * Move ascii8 device to groff-base (closes: #105627).
  * Remove stray + in groff(1) (closes: #105530).
  * New Brazilian Portugese debconf translation (thanks, Andre Luis Lopes;
    closes: #105367).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Tue, 17 Jul 2001 17:58:23 +0100

groff (1.17.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release. Fixes \s[0] escape (affects non-tty use of mdoc).
  * debian/rules:
    - The clean target now cleans the source tree better.
    - Use version detection from Makefile.in: it's friendlier to syntax
      highlighting.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Mon,  9 Jul 2001 03:35:20 +0100

groff (1.17.1-3) unstable; urgency=low

groff (1.17.1-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Conflict with pmake (<< 1.45-7), which had problems with the new
    location of groff's macros (see #101973).

groff (1.17.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
  * Of course, the library directory has moved with the new version number.
    Add a symlink, /usr/share/groff/current, which points to the current
    library directory; also add a versioned conflicts on troffcvt, which I'm
    about to fix to cope with this. If you rely on some particular version,
    use it; if not, use current.
  * Autogenerate debian/groff-base.files and debian/groff-base.links.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Sat, 23 Jun 2001 00:54:37 +0100

groff (1.17-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Back out patch supporting transparent decompression of groff's input
    stream. Since programs using groff have to support systems where *roff
    doesn't know how to decompress things, it doesn't really simplify
    anything else greatly; more importantly, using gzip means that argument
    parsing didn't always work the way we expected (closes: #75990).
  * The lj4 and ps drivers already support /etc/papersize due to an earlier
    Debian patch, and it turns out that lbp supports it upstream but wasn't
    previously configured to use it. Altered its DESC file to meet libpaper
    standards (closes: #19681, #19722).
  * Move the error unwind for groff-base's preinst into its postrm (oops).
  * New German debconf translation (thanks, Sebastian Feltel;
    closes: #100681).
  * Add README.Debian, describing the recent package reorganization.
  * Update copyright file to describe all upstream-relevant patches.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Wed, 20 Jun 2001 00:43:45 +0100

groff (1.17-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * Restore /usr/share/groff/tmac to the macro path, as some third-party
    programs install macros there (should fix #100139, but I'll leave it to
    the vgrind maintainer to check that groff 1.17 hasn't broken anything
    else).

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Fri,  8 Jun 2001 19:06:15 +0100

groff (1.17-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Brown paper bag bug: move grotty to groff-base!
  * Also move the doc macros to groff-base; some man pages use them. (This
    and the above bloat -base by some 200K, I'm afraid.)
  * Mention in the debconf note that groff-base supports Latin-1 and UTF-8
    as well as ASCII.
  * /usr/share/groff/site-tmac contains mdoc.local as well as man.local as
    of 1.17, so make that whole directory a symlink to /etc/groff and
    migrate the old /etc/tmac.man.local conffile to /etc/groff/man.local.
    This seems to need some ugly migration code.
  * Back out the autoconf 2.50 diffs for now, as they were polluting the
    .diff.gz. I've sent them upstream, though.

 -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org>  Wed,  6 Jun 2001 17:02:12 +0100

groff (1.17-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New maintainer (ciao, Fabrizio).
  * Thanks for the NMUs (closes: #75722, #90765).
  * New upstream release, with corresponding debian/copyright updates.
  * Follow upstream's move to versioned subdirectories of /usr/share/groff.
  * The components of groff required to support normal use of man-db are now
    in a separate package, groff-base (thanks, Elrond; closes: #53225).
  * Also split out gxditview and the devices that use it into the groff-x11
    package. I'd have preferred them to stay part of groff, as discussed on
    -devel, but the necessary xlibs dependency would mean that everybody
    dist-upgrading from a potato base system would get the X libraries.
    Added a debconf note to avoid silent loss of functionality; maybe in
    woody+1 they can be merged back into groff.

  * New packaging, using debhelper.
    - This shouldn't generate invalid syntax in the prerm (closes: #86437).
    - All binaries should be correctly stripped now (closes: #96786).
  * Add build dependencies (thanks, Daniel Schepler; closes: #80844).
  * Don't bother running configure in the clean target.
  * Touch configure in debian/rules to avoid a build-dep on autoconf. This
    means I have to remember to run the autotools manually every time. Ugh.
  * Support DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS debug and nostrip.
  * Mark /etc/X11/app-defaults/GXditview as a conffile.
  * All this brings us to Standards-Version: 3.5.2.

  * New Japanese patch (version 0.0.2) from Fumitoshi UKAI. This may not be
    quite right yet; please let me know if there are any problems.
  * Replace mdate.sh with something whose results are more predictable
    (thanks, Florian Lohoff; closes: #62554).
  * Force LC_ALL to C so that makeinfo doesn't insert some localized strings
    for the package builder's environment (closes: #84370).
  * s/man/man-db/ in the package description.
  * Remove an autoconf hack from aclocal.m4; the bug it's working around is
    now fixed and the hack broke with autoconf 2.50 (closes: #98916).
  * Set gxditview's fontpath in debian/rules, restoring
    /usr/local/share/groff/font.
  * Preserve the Makefile to avoid a large diff.
  * Back out single-page an.tmac patch; upstream did it more neatly.

groff (1.16-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * oops: had left generated files in the diff.
  * In new macro checking for gzcat (aclocal.m4), added use of option -f
    to permit transparent fallback to 'normal' cat.
  * In src/roff/groff/groff.cc , added gzcat command before soelim; it
    permits transparent use of zipped or not sources.

    yeah!)

groff (1.16-0) experimental; urgency=low

groff (1.15.3-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Applied patch proposed by Karl M.Hegbloom to get a single page from

groff (1.15.3-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * re-enabled default font in Dvi.c, thanx to Kevin Ryde.
    closes: #63491, but opens probably some other i18n related bug,
    sigh.
  * changed version to 1.15.3 (waiting for 1.16 :-) to be grater than
    the version in slink and than the one in potato.
    This means that I must reupload the sources ... which were gone from
    woody anyway (why it's possible?).
  * Applyed patch submitted by Tomohiro KUBOTA:
    * Added a new device type 'ascii8', which is 8 bit clean (like latin1)
      but does not use Latin-1 character for hyphenation and so on (like
      ascii).  This device is intended to be used for codesets other than
      ASCII and ISO-8859-1.  This device should be temporal till all
      charsets (ISO-8859-*, KOI8-R, EUC-KR, EUC-ZH, TIS620, and so on so on)
      in the world are implemented, though this is almost impossible.
    * Added a new character 'sy', which is soft hyphen.  This character is
      defined only for latin1 device.  This 'sy' is used for hyphenation
      instead of [char173], because [char173] may not be a soft hyphen,
      though [char173] is a soft hyphen in ISO-8859-1.
      Tomohiro KUBOTA <kubota@debian.or.jp>  Wed, 19 Apr 2000 23:47:18 +0900
    This closes: #62840.

    even if the sources in the distribution, including the COPYING file)
    still point tro the old file (this should be reported as a bug to
    upstream :-) .  Now it says:
        A copy of the GNU General Public License is available in
        /usr/doc/copyright/GPL (as installed by package base-files);

    - pic defaults as called with -S
    Updated manpages nroff(1), groff(1), troff(1), pic(1) for the -U option.
  * changed reference to me and msafer manpages in groff(1), to reflect
    the change in their names (done in 1.10-3.5 and 1.10-5).
