---------------
ktorrent (3.2+dfsg.1-2ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian, remaining changes: (LP: #296433)
    - Use Kubuntu's kde4.mk
    - Build-depend on libboost-serialization1.35-dev since unversioned -dev is
      in universe
    - Change plasma-applet-ktorrent to plasma-widget-ktorrent since we're
      supposed to call them widgets for the users

ktorrent (3.2+dfsg.1-2) experimental; urgency=low

  * Rename plasma-applet-ktorrent to plasma-widget-ktorrent, add
    conflicts/replaces with plasma-applet-ktorrent.

    - plasma-widget-ktorrent: kde
    - ktorrent-dbg: devel

    - revision 923353 on 2009-02-08 18:32:38 +0200;

ktorrent (3.2~rc1+svn919439-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream development snapshot based on the new development release
    (3.2 RC1):
    - includes changes from ktorrent trunk up to r919439 which include
      the fix for annoying "torrent is stalled all the time until client
      restart bug";
    - includes translations from official 3.2 RC1 release tarball;
    - no longer crashes when removing a torrent (Closes: #511451);
  * Bump build depends on KDE 4.2:
    - remove libplasma-dev build depend, rebuild against libplasma3;
    - add build depend on libphonon-dev 4:4.3.0;
    - bump build depends on strigi to 0.6.3.

  * Do not suggest php5-cli. No longer needed.
