38 browser-switchboard (3.3~b2-1fremantle1) extras-devel; urgency=low
40 * Development release for Fremantle.
42 - Update debian/rules to build the Fremantle-specific command-line config
43 tool and install the Xsession.post script.
44 - Revise the postinst. Now that we coexist with the MicroB browser
45 process, don't try to kill it in the postinst; instead, start
46 browser-switchboard as the user to make sure we handle links from the
47 get-go, and prestart MicroB if appropriate.

53 * New "upstream" development release.
55 - only offer installed browsers in the config GUI
56 - make continuous mode operation the default; disable non-continuous-mode
57 on Fremantle (needed for correct operation on D-Bus system bus)
58 - Fremantle: major overhaul of MicroB launching to improve robustness;
59 should result in speed and behavior indistinguishable from when Browser
60 Switchboard isn't installed when MicroB is configured as default browser
61 - listen on D-Bus system bus as well as session bus, to accommodate some
62 broken applications that send their requests on the system bus
63 - Fremantle: start browser-switchboard on X session startup, and also
64 prestart MicroB if it's the default browser or the user asks for it
65 - Fremantle: prestart MicroB when the user changes to MicroB as the default
68 - Update package description to mention that we ship a control panel
69 applet, to help users who don't read documentation. Thanks to Emanuele
70 Cassioli for pointing out the need.

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

123 com.nokia.osso_browser.

127 browser-switchboard (3.2-1) extras-devel; urgency=low
129 * New "upstream" stable release.
131 - make the "Web" menu entry and /usr/bin/browser open the default browser,
132 and provide a new "MicroB" menu entry and /usr/bin/microb script for
133 launching MicroB; the previous behavior was counterintuitive and
134 difficult to discover
135 - Fremantle: fix launching and closing MicroB on Fremantle; thanks Faheem

137 - Fremantle: force the Ovi Store bookmark to open in MicroB, since Ovi
138 Store doesn't load in other browsers; thanks ToJa92 of t.m.o for
140 - add ability to send debug output to syslog and new config setting
141 ("logging") to control where debug output goes; thanks Faheem Pervez for
143 - close stdin/stdout/stderr in child processes before the exec(), to make
144 debug output on stdout less noisy
145 - fix some abuses of the D-Bus API in launcher.c:launch_tear()
146 - make sure a running browserd is detected correctly on all devices so that
147 we don't try to launch another one; thanks Faheem Pervez for reporting
148 - ensure that only one browser-switchboard is active at any time
149 - update build system; we now have "diablo" and "fremantle" targets that
150 build binaries for the selected OS release
151 - link binaries with -Wl,--as-needed to eliminate unnecessary dependencies
153 - Build with Thumb by default and provide a "nothumb" build option to turn
154 it off, instead of building with Thumb only when requested; the
155 autobuilders aren't requesting Thumb, but we want it by default.
156 - Update debian/rules for the new upstream build system.
