-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Feb 13 17:51:39 UTC 2017 - jengelh@inai.de
- Rename from libHerWig1 to Herwig-libs as the package does not
satisfy the SLPP guideline: there are a number of non-.so.1
files.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Nov 16 09:28:43 UTC 2016 - jengelh@inai.de
- Trim history lesson from description
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Nov 15 03:15:10 UTC 2016 - badshah400@gmail.com
- Rename shared library, adding the so number from
libHerwigAPI.so; the so numbers of the other shared libraries
are expected to be incremented by upstream in step with this.
- Move config file to -devel pkg in keeping with shlib packaging
policy.
- Added obsoletes/provides for Herwig++ which will now be dropped
from Factory.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Nov 11 11:49:19 UTC 2016 - badshah400@gmail.com
- Initial package.
- Add Herwig-disable-repo-install.patch: Disable post-install
hooks intended to set up the Herwig repo, this doesn't work
inside the build script because of missing LHAPDF data that
needs to be installed by the user; the install-hook doesn't
serve any purpose while building the rpm and users can easily
set this up on their own.
