3 * New "upstream" development release.
5 - add support for Opera Mobile
6 - fall back to the built-in default if the user's configured default
7 browser isn't installed
8 - introduce a command-line config utility; this is mainly intended to give
9 browser vendors a way to set their browser as the default
10 - provide a description for users who don't know what MicroB is; thanks
11 Emanuele Cassioli for pointing out the need
12 - major rewrite of configuration loading/saving code
13 * Cherry-pick addb0ed9... ("Add command-line utility to Makefile install
16 - Build and install the new command-line config utility.

27 browser-switchboard (3.2-1) extras-devel; urgency=low
29 * New "upstream" stable release.
31 - make the "Web" menu entry and /usr/bin/browser open the default browser,
32 and provide a new "MicroB" menu entry and /usr/bin/microb script for
33 launching MicroB; the previous behavior was counterintuitive and
35 - Fremantle: fix launching and closing MicroB on Fremantle; thanks Faheem
36 Pervez and Uwe Kaminski for extensive testing
37 - Fremantle: force the Ovi Store bookmark to open in MicroB, since Ovi
38 Store doesn't load in other browsers; thanks ToJa92 of t.m.o for
40 - add ability to send debug output to syslog and new config setting
41 ("logging") to control where debug output goes; thanks Faheem Pervez for
43 - close stdin/stdout/stderr in child processes before the exec(), to make
44 debug output on stdout less noisy
45 - fix some abuses of the D-Bus API in launcher.c:launch_tear()
46 - make sure a running browserd is detected correctly on all devices so that
47 we don't try to launch another one; thanks Faheem Pervez for reporting
48 - ensure that only one browser-switchboard is active at any time
49 - update build system; we now have "diablo" and "fremantle" targets that
50 build binaries for the selected OS release
51 - link binaries with -Wl,--as-needed to eliminate unnecessary dependencies
53 - Build with Thumb by default and provide a "nothumb" build option to turn
54 it off, instead of building with Thumb only when requested; the
55 autobuilders aren't requesting Thumb, but we want it by default.
56 - Update debian/rules for the new upstream build system.

70 * New "upstream" stable release.
72 - add a new, more finger-friendly GUI for Fremantle, based on work by
73 Faheem Pervez (build UI with EXTRA_CPPFLAGS=-DFREMANTLE)
74 - make sure reconfig signal (SIGHUP) doesn't interrupt dispatch of a
75 request when continuous mode is off
76 - disable autocapitalization and predictive text features for the
77 other_browser_cmd entry in the UI
78 - add support for EXTRA_CPPFLAGS in Makefiles, to allow package builds to
79 pass feature/configuration defines; add EXTRA_LDFLAGS too, just in case

83 browser-switchboard (3.0-1) extras-devel; urgency=low
85 * New "upstream" stable release.
87 - fix the UI so that it looks for C browser-switchboard processes to send
88 SIGHUP to, not Python browser-switchboards
89 - add support for EXTRA_CFLAGS in Makefiles, to allow package builds to
90 pass additional optimization flags
91 - replace calls to `pkg-config dbus-1` in config-ui/Makefile with calls to
92 `pkg-config libosso` instead; asking for dbus-1 was incorrect and
93 covering up a problem that caused maemo extras-devel autobuilds to fail
95 - Use EXTRA_CFLAGS to generate N8x0 optimized builds, and use Thumb if
96 DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS requests it.
97 - Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.0; no changes required.
98 - 323bf8... ("config-ui: Teach UI how to HUP C browser-switchboards")
99 merged upstream, remove from diff.
100 - Remove unneeded file debian/dirs.

104 browser-switchboard (3.0~rc1-2) extras-devel; urgency=low
106 * Actually upload to extras-devel.
107 * Replace the dependency on libdbus-1-dev and the call to pkg-config for
108 dbus-1 with libosso-dev and libosso, respectively, as that's the package
109 the control panel plugin interface actually needs. Fixes autobuild.

113 browser-switchboard (3.0~rc1-1) extras-devel; urgency=low
115 * New "upstream" prerelease.
117 - move to an all-C implementation for better performance and memory usage
118 - add a configuration hildon-control-panel plugin
119 - make MicroB the default default browser
121 - Accommodate the move to C:
122 + Package is now Arch: any.
123 + Revise Build-Depends and Depends appropriately.
124 + debian/postrm now kills off both Python and C browser-switchboards.
125 + debian/rules: build an Arch: any package, use the new Makefile-based
126 build and install, dh_strip the binaries, make shlibdeps.
127 * Cherry-pick 323bf8...
128 ("config-ui: Teach UI how to HUP C browser-switchboards") from Git master.

132 browser-switchboard (2.2-1) extras-devel; urgency=low
134 * New "upstream" release.
136 - rename the package to browser-switchboard
137 - move the config file to $HOME/.config/browser-switchboard, and fall back
138 to the old location if no config file is found
139 - if no config file is found and Tear isn't installed, launch MicroB;
140 this avoids breaking link opening on a system with a freshly installed
141 browser-switchboard package and Tear not installed
142 - substantial documentation update
144 - Rename the package to browser-switchboard; Conflict with browser-proxy
145 to make sure that users don't try to install over it. browser-proxy
146 needs to be uninstalled before installing browser-switchboard.
147 - Drop the Depends on tear, now that installing browser-switchboard
148 doesn't break link opening when Tear isn't installed. Recommend
149 tear | fennec | midori instead.
150 - Add a friendly display name for the application manager in
152 - Update the package description.

158 * New "upstream" release.
160 - I'm now the upstream maintainer.
161 - License is clarified (GPLv2+).
162 - Use a config file ($HOME/.config/browser-proxy) for settings, if it
164 - Add support for launching Fennec and Midori out of the box.
165 - Introduce a config option default_browser for selecting the default
167 - Add support for launching an arbitrary browser using the
168 other_browser_cmd config option.
169 - Run maemo-invoker directly instead of /usr/bin/browser to avoid a loop
170 when /usr/bin/browser is a wrapper invoking browser-proxy.
171 - Add a new, private D-Bus method for a /usr/bin/browser wrapper to use.
173 - Ship a /usr/bin/browser wrapper script which ensures that launching
174 MicroB with /usr/bin/browser works when browser-proxy is installed.
175 - Update copyright to reflect licensing changes.
176 - Conflict with Mozilla's fennec-dbus-proxy (see Mozilla Bugzilla
177 #499904); both provide the com.nokia.osso_browser service and the two
178 probably shouldn't be co-installed.
