Package "sysnews"

sysnews (0.9-16) unstable; urgency=low

  * New maintainer (Closes: #483250)
    - Change Vcs-* headers
  * use quilt
  * switch to dh7
  * split up patches
    - upstream's Makefile already regenerates the man page with the
      NEWSDIR set correctly, so just use the regenerated version
      rather than patching
    - stop patching the Makefile when the changes can happen in
      debian/rules
    - organize the remaining changes
  * fix permissions on executable
  * stop supporting upgrades from potato :p
  * upgrade to latest policy (3.8.0)
    - add README.source
  * leave the debian/dirs, as it is actually needed
  * redo copyright file to be more clear
  * remove unneeded build dependency on dpkg-dev
  * add lintian override for non-standard-dir-perm
  * remove the default WELCOME. There was no easy way to make it comply
    with Debian Policy, and imho it's kinda useless, since most people
    probably remove/change it anyway.
