26 * Development release for Fremantle.
28 - Update debian/rules to build the Fremantle-specific command-line config
29 tool and install the Xsession.post script.
30 - Revise the postinst. Now that we coexist with the MicroB browser
31 process, don't try to kill it in the postinst; instead, start
32 browser-switchboard as the user to make sure we handle links from the
33 get-go, and prestart MicroB if appropriate.

37 browser-switchboard (3.3~b2-1) extras-devel; urgency=low
39 * New "upstream" development release.
41 - only offer installed browsers in the config GUI
42 - make continuous mode operation the default; disable non-continuous-mode
43 on Fremantle (needed for correct operation on D-Bus system bus)
44 - Fremantle: major overhaul of MicroB launching to improve robustness;
45 should result in speed and behavior indistinguishable from when Browser
46 Switchboard isn't installed when MicroB is configured as default browser
47 - listen on D-Bus system bus as well as session bus, to accommodate some
48 broken applications that send their requests on the system bus
49 - Fremantle: start browser-switchboard on X session startup, and also
50 prestart MicroB if it's the default browser or the user asks for it
51 - Fremantle: prestart MicroB when the user changes to MicroB as the default
54 - Update package description to mention that we ship a control panel
55 applet, to help users who don't read documentation. Thanks to Emanuele
56 Cassioli for pointing out the need.

70 - add support for Opera Mobile
71 - fall back to the built-in default if the user's configured default

73 - introduce a command-line config utility; this is mainly intended to give
74 browser vendors a way to set their browser as the default
75 - provide a description for users who don't know what MicroB is; thanks

105 - Ship a different microb.desktop file with the Fremantle location of the
106 stock web browser icon.
107 - Add a postinst that attempts to kill open MicroB browser processes, to
108 avoid having to restart for browser-switchboard to start handling
109 com.nokia.osso_browser.

113 browser-switchboard (3.2-1) extras-devel; urgency=low
115 * New "upstream" stable release.
117 - make the "Web" menu entry and /usr/bin/browser open the default browser,
118 and provide a new "MicroB" menu entry and /usr/bin/microb script for
119 launching MicroB; the previous behavior was counterintuitive and
120 difficult to discover
121 - Fremantle: fix launching and closing MicroB on Fremantle; thanks Faheem
122 Pervez and Uwe Kaminski for extensive testing
123 - Fremantle: force the Ovi Store bookmark to open in MicroB, since Ovi
124 Store doesn't load in other browsers; thanks ToJa92 of t.m.o for
126 - add ability to send debug output to syslog and new config setting
127 ("logging") to control where debug output goes; thanks Faheem Pervez for
129 - close stdin/stdout/stderr in child processes before the exec(), to make
130 debug output on stdout less noisy
131 - fix some abuses of the D-Bus API in launcher.c:launch_tear()
132 - make sure a running browserd is detected correctly on all devices so that
133 we don't try to launch another one; thanks Faheem Pervez for reporting
134 - ensure that only one browser-switchboard is active at any time
135 - update build system; we now have "diablo" and "fremantle" targets that
136 build binaries for the selected OS release
137 - link binaries with -Wl,--as-needed to eliminate unnecessary dependencies
139 - Build with Thumb by default and provide a "nothumb" build option to turn
140 it off, instead of building with Thumb only when requested; the
141 autobuilders aren't requesting Thumb, but we want it by default.
142 - Update debian/rules for the new upstream build system.
