1 browser-switchboard (3.2-1fremantle1) extras-devel; urgency=low
3 * Beta release for Fremantle.
5 - Ship a different microb.desktop file with the Fremantle location of the
6 stock web browser icon.
7 - Add a postinst that attempts to kill open MicroB browser processes, to
8 avoid having to restart for browser-switchboard to start handling
9 com.nokia.osso_browser.

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

117 - make sure reconfig signal (SIGHUP) doesn't interrupt dispatch of a
118 request when continuous mode is off
119 - disable autocapitalization and predictive text features for the
120 other_browser_cmd entry in the UI
121 - add support for EXTRA_CPPFLAGS in Makefiles, to allow package builds to
122 pass feature/configuration defines; add EXTRA_LDFLAGS too, just in case

128 * Experimental build for Fremantle.
129 * Add XSBC-Bugtracker to debian/control to indicate where bugs should be
130 filed; needed for maemo extras QA.
131 * No need to add CPU optimization flags, the Fremantle toolchain
132 automatically optimizes for N900/OMAP3.

136 browser-switchboard (3.0-1) extras-devel; urgency=low
138 * New "upstream" stable release.
140 - fix the UI so that it looks for C browser-switchboard processes to send
141 SIGHUP to, not Python browser-switchboards
142 - add support for EXTRA_CFLAGS in Makefiles, to allow package builds to
143 pass additional optimization flags
144 - replace calls to `pkg-config dbus-1` in config-ui/Makefile with calls to
145 `pkg-config libosso` instead; asking for dbus-1 was incorrect and
146 covering up a problem that caused maemo extras-devel autobuilds to fail
148 - Use EXTRA_CFLAGS to generate N8x0 optimized builds, and use Thumb if
149 DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS requests it.
150 - Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.0; no changes required.
151 - 323bf8... ("config-ui: Teach UI how to HUP C browser-switchboards")

166 * Actually upload to extras-devel.
167 * Replace the dependency on libdbus-1-dev and the call to pkg-config for
168 dbus-1 with libosso-dev and libosso, respectively, as that's the package
169 the control panel plugin interface actually needs. Fixes autobuild.

184 * New "upstream" prerelease.
186 - move to an all-C implementation for better performance and memory usage
187 - add a configuration hildon-control-panel plugin
188 - make MicroB the default default browser
190 - Accommodate the move to C:
191 + Package is now Arch: any.
192 + Revise Build-Depends and Depends appropriately.
193 + debian/postrm now kills off both Python and C browser-switchboards.
194 + debian/rules: build an Arch: any package, use the new Makefile-based
195 build and install, dh_strip the binaries, make shlibdeps.

201 browser-switchboard (2.2-1) extras-devel; urgency=low
203 * New "upstream" release.
205 - rename the package to browser-switchboard
206 - move the config file to $HOME/.config/browser-switchboard, and fall back
207 to the old location if no config file is found
208 - if no config file is found and Tear isn't installed, launch MicroB;
209 this avoids breaking link opening on a system with a freshly installed
210 browser-switchboard package and Tear not installed
211 - substantial documentation update
213 - Rename the package to browser-switchboard; Conflict with browser-proxy
214 to make sure that users don't try to install over it. browser-proxy
215 needs to be uninstalled before installing browser-switchboard.
216 - Drop the Depends on tear, now that installing browser-switchboard
217 doesn't break link opening when Tear isn't installed. Recommend
218 tear | fennec | midori instead.
219 - Add a friendly display name for the application manager in

227 * New "upstream" release.
229 - I'm now the upstream maintainer.
230 - License is clarified (GPLv2+).
231 - Use a config file ($HOME/.config/browser-proxy) for settings, if it
233 - Add support for launching Fennec and Midori out of the box.
234 - Introduce a config option default_browser for selecting the default
236 - Add support for launching an arbitrary browser using the
237 other_browser_cmd config option.
238 - Run maemo-invoker directly instead of /usr/bin/browser to avoid a loop
239 when /usr/bin/browser is a wrapper invoking browser-proxy.
240 - Add a new, private D-Bus method for a /usr/bin/browser wrapper to use.
242 - Ship a /usr/bin/browser wrapper script which ensures that launching
243 MicroB with /usr/bin/browser works when browser-proxy is installed.
244 - Update copyright to reflect licensing changes.
245 - Conflict with Mozilla's fennec-dbus-proxy (see Mozilla Bugzilla
246 #499904); both provide the com.nokia.osso_browser service and the two
247 probably shouldn't be co-installed.
