Sat Nov  3 11:42:38 UTC 2012 - puzel@suse.com

- Update to 8.88.
  * Ensure that version numbers begin with well, a number, when building a
    deb, otherwise dpkg-deb will refuse to build it.
- Changes in 8.87.
  * Use lsb-rpmbuild, not lsb-rpm.
  * Fix adding of postinst script to deb, containing rpm permissions
    fixups code.
- fix failed build because of missing dh_testdir: BuildRequire
  debhelper 
- Requires: rpmbuild (bnc#787896)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr  3 15:17:06 UTC 2012 - lazy.kent@opensuse.org

- Update to 8.86.

    deb.
- Changes in 8.85.
  * Avoid breaking on spaces in filenames.
- Changes in 8.84.
  * Silence error message when deleting build tree after making an
    rpm, if rpmbuild has already deleted it.
  * Squash an uninitialized value when creating a deb.
- Changes in 8.83.
  * Correct handling of arch all packages in deb arch check.
- Changes in 8.82.
  * Use debhelper compat level v7 when building packages. All
    changes since v4 seem safe for alien's generated rules files.
  * Use dh_prep instead of deprecated dh_clean -k.
  * Print a nice error message when attempting to build a deb from
    a package of an unsupported architecture.
- Corrected License tag.
- Use full URL as a source.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Aug 18 10:34:27 UTC 2010 - puzel@novell.com

- update to alien 8.81 
  * Avoid uninitialized value warning when debian/rules fails to run
    due to alien being run in a noexec directory.
  * Prevent DESTROY stomping on alien's exit code sometimes.
  * Support extracting lzma compressed RPMs. 
  * Suggest lzma. If not installed, alien will still fail to decompress
    RPMs using it, but will support most rpms, which are not.
  * Fix precedence problem that prevented alien from preserving permissions
    of suid/sgid binaries that are not owned by root.
  * Support RPMs containing ghost files.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri May 28 12:21:04 UTC 2010 - puzel@novell.com

- do not build as noarch

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri May  7 08:55:14 UTC 2010 - puzel@novell.com

- update to alien 8.80 
  * Support querying rpm LICENSE field. (Alexey Khoroshilov)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Mar 25 13:19:28 UTC 2010 - puzel@novell.com

- add alien-strip-tilde-from-version.patch (bnc#590986)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Mar 25 11:43:07 UTC 2010 - puzel@novell.com

- update to alien-8.79
  * Modify -g and -s to support running on multiple packages at once.
  * Removed all built-in patches for converting specific packages
    (j2sdk, jdk, lgtoclnt, motif) with alien. These were out of date,
    and not maintained. Alien will not include such patches going forward.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Aug 28 09:56:02 UTC 2009 - puzel@novell.com

- update to alien 8.78
  * Add support for rpm 4.7.0, which ignores the buildroot setting in the
    spec file, by passing --buildroot. (Thanks, Pavel Roskin)
- cleanup specfile

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jul  7 14:54:17 CEST 2009 - puzel@novell.com

- update to alien 8.77 
  * Don't allow whitespace in package version when parsing debian/changelog.
  * In rpm permission fixup code, avoid processing symlinks since that
    would result in the file the link points to being "fixed".

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jun  9 10:38:27 CEST 2009 - puzel@suse.cz

- update to 8.76 
  * Avoid using hostname -f for portability to unix systems,
    such as Solaris, where any options _set_ the hostname.
  * Fix bash shebang and recognise bash scripts as editable
    shell scripts when converting to deb.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu May  7 14:08:23 CEST 2009 - puzel@suse.cz

- update to 8.75
  * Simplified rules file.
  * Modify maintainer scripts from rpm files to use /bin/bash rather
    than /bin/sh. Many such scripts are only tested on systems where /bin/sh
    is bash, and contain bashisms, which can cause trouble when converting
    the rpm to be used on eg, the Debian family of distributions, where
    /bin/sh can legitimatly be dash.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Feb 16 16:46:31 CET 2009 - puzel@suse.cz

- update to 8.74
  * support bzipped and uncompressed tar files, using tar's auto-compression detection
  * pod fixes

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jan 13 13:00:09 CET 2009 - puzel@suse.cz

- update to 8.73
  * (8.73) fix pkg generation to not include /prototype in all packages
  * (8.72) improve parsing of tgz filenames, to avoid confusion when the filename
    includes the package type (ie, "noarch")
  * (8.71) deal with rpms that relocate ie, /usr into /usr/local, and don't
    try to move /usr into /usr/local in this case
  * (8.70) extract prefixes field before extracting scripts so that
    RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX gets set
  * (8.69) minor improvement to debian/rules clean.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jan  7 18:21:26 CET 2009 - puzel@suse.cz

- fix rpmlint warning - package is noarch

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jul 26 12:08:12 CEST 2007 - prusnak@suse.cz

- update to 8.68
  * (8.66) use date -R as 822-date will soon be deprecated
  * (8.67) correct a bug that caused alien to ignore failing commands
  * (8.68) show output of installation of package with -i, since
    some packages install scripts may have important output or even
    be interactive

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jan  3 14:00:29 CET 2007 - prusnak@suse.cz

- update to 8.65
  * Fix alien's own spec file, s/Copyright/License/.
  * Add support for rpm scripts that use RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX, by
    setting RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX as part of the converted script.
    Closes: #400863
  * When converting LSB packages, do not increment the release number.
  * Use rpmbuild to build lsb packages, not rpm, if lsb-rpm is not
    available.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jul 27 15:28:42 CEST 2006 - mjancar@suse.cz

- update to 8.64
  * Minor improvement to usage message
  * Correct code to properly use RPMBUILDOPT (not RPMBUILDOPTS)
  * Look at and chmod the right directories.
  * Fix a bug in conffile script extraction from tgz files (caused by
    return from runpipe not defaulting to a scalar).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Aug 07 15:46:10 CEST 2003 - mcihar@suse.cz

- updated to 8.34:
    * Fixed changelog parsing regexp.
    * Updated j2sdk patch.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jul 28 13:06:28 CEST 2003 - ro@suse.de

- install perl stuff to vendor location

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue May 27 12:11:33 CEST 2003 - mcihar@suse.cz

- updated to 8.30, changes:
  * Added -v to enable verbose mode, which lists each shell command
    as it is run. Also added --veryverbose for verbose with command
    output too.
  * Use -V for version. (-v used to be documented, but never worked)
  * alien.spec: pass PREFIX to Makefile.PL so it works on systems
    (such as red hat 8) where the generated Makefile does not use
    $PREFIX in all paths.
  * Support rpms that contain no files. Closes: #184714
  * Corrected precidence problem that made alien not catch mkdir of the work
    directory failing if the directory already existed (and let it delete the
    existing directory). Closes: #181061
  * Fixed several other instances of the same precidence problem in the code.
  * Use rpmbuild -bb instead of rpm -bb, as it seems that rpm -bb has stopped
    working in recent versions of rpm, as shipped by red hat (Debian's rpm,
    confusingly, continues to support rpm -bb, possibly because of how I hack
    its popt stuff up for debian.) This may fail with older, pre-rpmbuild
    rpm's; if so you should upgrade to a more current version I guess.
  * Updated js2k patch from Gerald Turner.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Nov 13 12:37:10 CET 2002 - mcihar@suse.cz

- updated to 8.20, major changes:
  * Pach from Erwan MAS <erwan@mas.nom.fr> that allows specification of the
    version of a tgz file, for files that don't have a parseable version
    number.
  * Added support inspired by aj for converted rpm packages that create
    users/groups in their preinst, and which alien therefore cannot ship the
    files with proper ownerships in the .deb. In this case alien will now
    insert appropriate chown commands into the postinst script of the
    converted package.
  * perl 5.8 fixes.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Aug 28 12:37:07 MEST 2002 - mcihar@suse.cz

- corrected requires, now requires deb because most users will want
  to use this for deb<=>rpm conversion

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Aug  6 11:13:06 CEST 2002 - mcihar@suse.cz

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jan 15 12:38:11 CET 2002 - cihlar@suse.cz
