10. By Robert Luberda on 2014-12-18

* New upstream version from OpenBSD cvs repository. The version consists of:

  - The changes that are part of the following recent stable security update
    by Florian Weimer:

      bsd-mailx (8.1.2-0.20111106cvs-1+deb7u1) wheezy-security; urgency=high
        * Apply OpenBSD patches from Todd Miller:
          + 80-remove_T.patch (remove undocumented/obsolete -T option)
          + 81-minus_f.patch (adjust -f processing)
          + 82-expandaddr.patch (fix CVE-2014-7844)
          + 83-nosendmail.patch (make -- work for option parsing suppression)

  - A simple change in lex.c related to preferring mkostemp(O_CLOEXEC) over
    mkstemp()+fcntl(F_SETFD) and fopen("re") over fopen("r")+fcntl(F_SETFD).

  - A change in fio.c to use glob() to expand filenames. The change however
    is not enabled in the Debian package (i.e. outside of `#ifdef DEBIAN'
    code) as wordexp() function instead has been used in Debian for last
    10 years.

* Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.6.

* New upstream version from OpenBSD CVS repository.

8. By Robert Luberda on 2013-10-06

* New upstream version from OpenBSD CVS repository.
* Remove 23-Treat-new-line-only-messages-as-empty-ones.patch, introduced
  in 1:8.1.2-0.20071017cvs-1 so that bsd-mailx will behave like other mailx
  implementations and will not treat messages containing a single new line
  only as an empty ones (LP: #607099, reopens #355545).
* Extend description of this package to mention the fact that bsd-mailx lacks
  many features that may be found in other packages like heirloom-mailx
  or mailutils (closes: #508303).
* Add 26-Fix-confusing-error.patch to make a message given when -b is used
  without -t less confusing (closes: #327809).
* Fix 00-Makefile.patch not to override CC and pass CPPFLAGS while compiling.
* debian/rules:
  + apply patch from Ubuntu to respect DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE when selecting CC
    for cross-compiling;
  + do not try to run make clean on unpatched Makefile.
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.4 (no changes).
